I was looking into places for my parents. Spoke to Leann Frentz several times. Very difficult to…read moreget a hold of as well. Explained the entire situation, their financial situation etc.. When it came time for the paperwork there was another text exchange asking about the 2 year guarantee because my parents would fall short of it. She text me "Just be transparent on the financial form, that way we can plan for when they start to apply" That Friday the director started getting involved asking questions. Only to wind up denying them despite what I was told. Director Melissa Hingher told me she was going to talk to someone else at corporate and get back to me. 1 week later hadn't heard from anyone. I escalated it to their corporate office when Kenneth Segarnick emailed me back saying he received my email that was sent to the CEO Brenda Bacon. We scheduled a phone call and he backed them 100% didn't care what was in writing. Stated he wasn't a party to the conversation, but I have it in writing. Bottom line be careful with this place, they will tell you what you want to hear but won't back it up, they are liars simply put. Makes me wonder if they do this with admissions, what would they do when it came to care.

The staff is top notch, and they remember their resident's names, heath concerns, preferences, etc. I was very impressed and feel so much more comfortable with them there while I'm 3,000 mi away. My mom broke her arm about 2 weeks after move-in and they were there immediately to get her to the hospital. The 3rd party care team they use/refer for additional needs can be hit or miss, but is priced well. There are plenty of events here to keep the residents happy and occupied. Dementia/Alzheimer's friendly ;) BBQ's, live music, holiday events, bus trips, Thoughtful food/menus, wine and cheese, arts & crafts. Comradery within the residents and staff. It kind of reminds me of a cruise ship! The peace of mind I have now that they are here is such a relief. I highly recommend looking into this for a senior care option, esp if you know they may eventually need to move to an on-site memory care unit.

Our father, Ted Nardolillo, recently passed away after living at Brandywine at the Gables for…read morealmost one year. For most of that time he was physically and mentally competent. But for the last three months his physical health deteriorated substantially and became very depressed and forgetful. In the last month he had hospice care and a 24 hour aid provided by others that were able to provide the appropriate care without having to move him into another room let along another facility. I won't bother comment in any detail about the facility's amenities - the food, the activities, the cleanliness of the facility. They were fine and more than adequate I am sure there are other, more expensive facilities that could provide a higher degree of amenities and more creature comforts. But what was critical to our family, who never thought either of our parents would ever live anywhere but in their own home or with one of their children, was the care and attention paid to their emotional and physical needs. Our father was a warm, funny and caring person. For him to be comfortable he needed to be surrounded by people who what type of person he was and treat him with the care and affection deserved of such a lovable person. Brandywine and the other providers they brought in, were that and more. They truly bonded with him and made sure he was cared for. If food or his meds needed to be prepared in a certain way they went out of their way to accommodate. If he was cranky and depressed as his condition worsened they were patient and sensitive. I could give plenty of examples of the large and little things they did to make our family content that under his most difficult days he was being properly cared for. When the time finally arrived and our father passed away many of the aides, nurses and other staff treated him and us like family. In an occupation where failing health and ultimately death is not an uncommon occurrence they seemed truly touched and concerned by his worsening condition and grieved with us when he passed away. They even attended his services and stayed with us well past the "respectful' time we thought others in similar line of work would spend. My family will never forget the loving care and respect they showed my father and his family. When you see that type of treatment by paid professionals who only got to know him during his final months you can't help but feel lucky that we picked the perfect place for him. Five stars does not do justice for what these people did for our father. Mark and Wayne, two very grateful sons

It is hard to express how much Brandywine Living at the Gables has meant to my family. My 90 year…read moreold father was not there for a long time but the final months of his life were happy because of them. The entire staff was just amazing - so caring and kind and made my father feel like they knew him for years. Maria Carnevale, Director of Admissions, was especially wonderful and went out of her way to work with us no matter what obstacles came up. She treated us like family and made the place truly feel like home. Many of the staff have been there for 10, 15, 20 years or more and that speaks volumes. I cannot say enough about this place and especially Maria for making it all possible. Bless you all for everything you do!

We moved our uncle to Brandywine about four years ago when we realized living on his own was a…read morechallenge for him. He quickly adjusted to his new environment with the help of the wonderful staff at the community. He made a lot of new friends and enjoyed his time in the assisted living. When the community noticed that memory issues were becoming a concern, we were able to move him to the memory care neighborhood where he also thrived. It wasn't until his care level became too much for the community that he had to leave his Brandywine friends and family. As most of our family were a distance away from Toms River, we very much appreciated the love and care provided for him by the staff and residents at Brandywine. We can't say enough good things about this community, the management and how they take care of Seniors in Toms River.

I cannot even express how much I love Leisure Park. My mom was struggling on her own at home…read more While she had refused to go to assisted living in the past, it had become necessary. It was a difficult step and she was hesitant. Then we met Joalene, the head of sales and marketing, who has been at the company for years. Joalene made her feel at ease to express her feelings and to listen to her needs. After a few days my Mom settled in and the team truly made her feel at home. From Tara to Krystal to Anthony to Jill (and I know I am forgetting so many people), everyone was kind and welcoming and helpful. And they continue to look out for her every single day! The facility is kept super clean, the food is awesome, and there are tons of fun activities that are available to the residents including exercise through Agility. My mom was even able to bring her dog Kibbles which was obviously SUPER important! I highly recommend taking a look for your mom, dad or loved one!

She provided us with a wonderful aide who is skilled, caring and supportive of my husband plus helpful to me also. Ana's employees have always been responsible, on time and very skilled. We've used many agencies and private hires. Ana comes out on top with her listening to our needs and providing that service. I recommend Ana Cares Senior Services.
