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.

Ivy Gables Senior Living in Wilmington, DE
4.4

The place is great, the community is very clean and the staff members have continued to be so helpful and friendly. There are activities during all different times of the day, they are keeping our loved one constantly active and engaged. There are exercise glasses and mind games. She is really enjoying the meals and dining service, she gets three meals a day and if there is something they made that she does not like they will make her something else so they have been really accommodating. For everything she is getting, which is a lot, we think the value for cost is great.

Arden Courts A ProMedica Memory Care Community in King of Prussia
4.8

Arden Courts has been an absolute blessing to our family. Watching a loved one decline and turn into a version of themselves that is unrecognizable is always upsetting. The entire team of Arden courts have been patient, loving, and supportive of our transition to needing full time care for our Uncle. All the staff is wonderfully skilled and fully understand the needs of dementia patients and I feel confident that the care he is receiving is better than what we could provide at home, even with services. [name removed](Admissions) and [name removed](Executive Director) have gone above and beyond any expectations I could have had from traveling to our home for the initial assessment to facilitating a quick transition from hospital to home to Arden Courts to ensure the safety of our Uncle and his wife. When finding a placement was looking bleak, Arden Courts was they provided hope and peace for our family. Careful consideration of the selection of room, room décor, and comfort items were considered to ensure a safe and comfortable transition and reduce possible triggers for my Uncle's type of dementia. Additionally, I have noticed personally that Arden Court provides nourishing meals and snacks in a homey setting. The activities are fun and geared to preserving brain and body function. There are activities focused on religion for those residents that are interested. Lastly, the medical and support staff and friendly and supportive of the residents and family and really take the time to get to know the preferences of each individual under their care. We know our Uncle is being take care of like he is family to the staff and that made the entire transition so much easier on our family and we are forever grateful.
