Community Reviews
Luv the place! Activities Dept. is top notch!
reviewed on: 09/19/2021 by Greg TMy mother has been here for over a ½ year and loves it! I could go on-and-on about how wonderful this place is. The Activities Dept. is spectacular! And when you live in a place like this, you need an incredible variety to pick from. I’m not talking about the normal things like Bingo or Crafts, but things like bus trips to a famous hot dog stand and sitting by a river. Fun group games like The Price is Right. Cool activities are done such as music videos too. This summer a garden club was organized (with free t-shirts & hats) to grow vegetables, and then given to local food banks. As Mom’s “responsible party”, I want her to be active and happy. A robust activities program is key to that. Overall, the facility has a nice home-like feel to it. I know a couple new facilities are being built in the area, and new might be nice, but I think Seniors really appreciate more of a home-like feel to things. We couldn’t be happier that things worked out so well for Mom at Brandywine.
Laundry And Food Can Improve
reviewed on: 11/01/2013 by FamilyI think the activities are good overall if you're in assisted living but if you're in the reflections unit, where my mother is, they're not so good. I think they're very responsive when you have a complaint which is good. I have had some recent experience with the clothing shuffle and laundry issues. If they're really going to improve anything they should really should improve the laundry facility. I was told one thing about the way the laundry was going to be done and I've experienced something very different. I've had 5 different explanations so far and it's like let's get the story straight. It's frustrating. Part of the dignity that they want to retain is wear their own clothes and hers are disappearing. I don't know if it's in other people's rooms or being destroyed in the laundry or what. It's been an ongoing and a big issue and I hear it's common. It deters me from going there which isn't fair to me or my mother but I just don't want to have a confrontation every time I go there. I chose it for proximity so I do see a lot that goes on there. I think the food could be better too. My mother has gained about 15lbs in 4 months and it's because the activity level isn't high enough and the quality of the food is not great. I think they should do more of a high fiber, low calorie diet instead of the high fat diet I'm seeing.
Your loved one is in good hands
reviewed on: 12/02/2015 by Edna's daughterMy 89 year old mother moved in during summer of 2014, having come from living independently. I was concerned about how she would adapt, but I was pleasantly surprised when after the first night she said she loved it, and has never looked back. Everyone is warm, friendly, welcoming, beginning with Leslie, Mae, Nancy and Olga. There's little turnover in staff - my friend visited and Nancy and Olga remembered her from 8 years earlier, when her aunt was there. The food is good, the aides are amazing, the drivers are terrific taking mom to doctor appointments. I can't say enough good things about Brandywine in Princeton. My husband & I looked at several neighboring places during our investigation but Brandywine was the first one we looked at and all others paled in comparison. Having your parent(s) here will enable you to sleep at night. It has helped me. Thank you, everyone!
Understaffed, but Great Staff!
reviewed on: 03/27/2014 by Loved OneThe staff here is what really got my loved one to stay here. They do suffer from understaffing, but that is like everywhere else. The activities they offer are less engaging than at other independent living communities, but they do offer them. Also, the price seemed to be comparable to others in the area. One suggestion we have would be to have more information about their compeitors. Brandywine does compare to the others, but they don't seem to really investigate what the competitors offer. However, we were really impressed by the recent family meeting with the staff. The family members were able to meet and discuss what specifically the staff is doing that is good, as well as what is not so good. Even the littlest things were discussed, such as putting flowers along the walkway, or playing music in the lobby. They were very receptive to the feedback and everyone praised the staff for their hard work.
Highly recommend Brandywine at Princeton
reviewed on: 12/09/2019 by Mary OMy mom has been a resident at Brandywine for two months. Her participation in the variety of activities offered daily has created a much more social environment for mom with people in her age group. This has made a very big positive impact on mom. We haven't seen her this happy and healthy in quite a while. Mom says everyone is "wonderful and so nice" to her. The staff is professional, caring, nurturing, and always with a smile. It is such a relief to us, her family, that she is in safe, clean and happy environment. Kudos to the staff at Brandywine.
