My mother was a resident of Brandywine in Summit. I highly recommend this facility if you a looking for somewhere for your loved one. The care and compassion from everyone from management to staff was outstanding. In addition, the support and understanding they give to the family members is such a comfort. We recently lost my mom and during that process they went above and beyond to make her and us comfortable. I recommend them to anyone whois looking for a place where their loved one will be safe and loved.

Head nurse of memory care said our fee only covers room and board and would not prompt our loved one to take a shower- said it was our responsibility to make sure our loved one showered. The rest of the staff is outstanding and lovely. They really care about the residents- just one bad apple that ruins it.
Just walking in you can feel the warmth! The team is always smiling and engaging with the residents.—not to mention the community itself is clean, inviting and I love their courtyard, it’s perfect for a drive in movie which they have in the warmer months. The Brandywine Summit community fosters a family-like environment that’s supportive and welcoming!
I have had the privilege of working very closely with the team at Brandywine Of Summit! The team at Brandywine is exceptional! It is a cozy and warm Facility and has an amazing outdoor area for all to enjoy! Everyone is so friendly and welcoming ! Residents are always in great spirits and enjoying the fun and engaging events hosted by Africa, Amanda and Ty! Highly recommend! Talk to Glenn about moving in ! His energy is unmatched!
The staff at this community are compassionate, attentive, and truly dedicated to making residents feel valued. Africa and Ty are an amazing asset to the community-their kindness, professionalism, and genuine care make a real difference in the lives of both residents and families. The environment is safe, welcoming, and filled with amazing activities from the Activities Director Amanda. I highly recommend this community to anyone seeking quality, compassionate assisted living.
