BRUNSWICK VILLAGE

My sister has been a resident of Brunswick Village for the past 9 months. She suffers from early-onset Alzheimer’s and has been rapidly declining. The entire staff has been very effective in helping her through this very difficult time. I have so appreciated their support when needed, their wisdom that comes from years of experience and attention to detail. Truly every employee there has connected with me on some level, they really pay attention to their residents. None of us want to place our loved ones in facilities away from their homes and people they know and love, but when it’s necessary for us for various reasons I would highly recommend this facility. They have earned my trust and I am very grateful for them. Sherry Harms

Eileen was a great resource for senior living for active seniors. Brunswick Village is for seniors needing care which wasn’t a fit for me. I drove out to take a look at Lake Wildwood, which Eileen recommended, but they wouldn’t let me in to drive through. The very rude guard at the gate said it’s closed to the public with no exceptions. I found that interesting. I imagine I can get I’m with a realtor. I’ll continue to peruse it and other recommended venues. Thanks Eileen

I've tried several times to write a review that really highlights what a wonderful residence this is for Alzheimer/dementia sufferers. My mother's mind and body has been ravaged by this horrible disease, so my review reflects the care for a very needy person. But I have some comfort in knowing she is being cared for by angels on earth. The facility is clean and bright and all areas open to scrutiny. The administrators and staff are truly heroes to the residents and their families who care about them. They all have a similar attitude of "this gives me so much joy to help an older person in need and give them as much love and comfort as possible." My mother's room and bathroom is always clean and so is she, even with incontinence. She is not left in her room all day but is awakened, bathed, dressed and taken to a community area for some social interaction as she is able. She is checked up often for her comfort and bathroom needs. There are music, movies, very good meal plans and snacks. For all holidays the residence is decorated and the staff dress up for fun and laugh with the residents. I received a good deal of assistance when first placing her at Brunswick Village. They made it as smooth as could be done. She is under continual Hospice visits in addition to the daily care of the Brunswick Village employees. The employees are of a much higher degree of caring for dementia patients than I have seen in other facilities. They are knowledgable about the disease and are trained to be the best at caring for the residents. My mother will never get better, but she will have been given love and care from incredible persons....again, angels on earth.

My experience is still in the early stage. I had two places to choose from and I choose Brunswick Village because I want my mom to have a location that is like a home. She likes the family feel, she has lots of supervision and activities. We as the family feel we are being heard and if mom is in need of something they see the need a get it for her and when we get there they communicate to us. I like the security I see it makes me not have more worries. Please if you are looking for a family environment for your loved one to live in when they are needing to be in an assistance facility choose Brunswick Village.

I want to convey my deep appreciation for the staff at Brunswick Village for their meticulous attention with my mother Pat. My mother was treated as a member of the Brunswick family and not a day went by without her remarking on how wonderful the staff and Kristie the manager were. She truly loved being at Brunswick Village. And as a result, I was greatly reassured. Kristie Laine and her staff have a love of older people and it shows in the staff employed and the personal attention given. My mother Pat was kept very busy with activities that were fun ( yoga & piano singing), but also stimulated her memory. Her food was prepared according to her favorites and she gained back weight that was desperately needed. Her medical needs were met with great communication back to me on the state of her health. I felt my mom was in a very warm, friendly and loving place and that was very important to me. I would highly recommend Kristie, her staff, and the Brunswick Village!
