Recent reviews of Memory Care in West Chester, PA
Brandywine Senior Living at Senior Suites in East Norriton, PA
5.0

First, you need to see this facility. They did a major renovation and it looks so different. It has been modernized and looks amazing. My Mom has been at Brandywine for a few years. It is a tough decision to make when your loved one needs more care than what you can give. The apartments are roomy. The food is wonderful. There are so many activities that one will never get bored. My Mom is now on the Reflections-Memory Care Unit. The care and support that she receives is amazing. She is well cared for. The staff is so genuine and supportive to my Mom and family. Administration takes the time to talk with you and answer your questions. It is like an extended family. I am so happy with making the decision to move my Mom to Brandywine.

Freedom Village at Brandywine, a CCRC in Coatesville, PA
4.5

My mother has lived at Freedom Village since 1999, first in a beautiful condo, next in Assisted Living and finally in Skilled Care for the last 5 years. She is now 96 years old, legally blind, hard of hearing, and has advanced dementia. She spends most of her time in a wheelchair and is happy in her own world thinking most of the time that she is a teenager. She has had outstanding care. All of the staff have been very caring. Particularly, under stressful times, the Program Department has gone out of their way to keep all of the residents safely occupied. Freedom definitely gets 5 stars.
