I went to The Brielle at Seaview and toured the place. They showed me around and saw that they got a big dining room. They offer studios and private rooms. It had a kitchenette in it and a walk-in shower. They also have activities, like bingo, card games, and everything. They got a sunroom, so there was sunlight going inside and where you could get some fresh air.

We had chosen The Brielle at Seaview for my brother. I like the attention to detail. They are offering different levels of care, like if somebody needs just a little bit of help versus somebody who needs a lot of help. The facility is very clean. They showed us a studio, a one-bedroom, and a two-bedroom that you share with another person. The rooms were pretty big, and the layout was very nice, very new, and modern-looking. I saw people playing cards.
The cafeteria was really nice. They had cloth napkins and glasses. It was like restaurant-quality. I heard there's transportation to local shopping. They had a nice little library and a socializing room with a fireplace and old-style chairs. It's all brand new. The outdoor area was really nice. You can even walk right out there. They're right in a very wooded area, and then behind it was a lot of natural scenery. It was very nice.

My mom was at The Brielle at Seaview for two weeks, but then she got too sick. I had to move her. It was fine there, but my mom needed more attention. It didn't have enough attention for her. I needed to move her into a place that had a bit more one-on-one attention. She was there for hospice, but she was still a little bit mobile. The aides could be a little bit more attentive. Not that they weren't nice, but they're a little slow to respond when you ring the bell. The staff members were pleasant. They were attentive. The only thing is you need to be a little bit more independent there. They have aides that come in and assist, but you have to wait a little bit. It's better for someone that's a little bit more independent.
The place was clean. They had a lot of activities and meals. They were accommodating. My mom couldn't eat in the dining room, so they did bring her meals to the room. They were accommodating with that. You can get in touch with the staff if you need to. You can always get them on the phone or they're walking around. It just wasn't the right place for my mom at a certain time, so I have to move her.
They had bingo and music. They had a nice library. I didn't get into activities too much because my mom couldn't participate. They have a beauty parlor, a gym, and physical therapy. All of that is good, if you can enjoy them.

Awful. Medication errors constantly. Missing meds, wrong meds giving. Records indicate different than what is actually given. Showing received meds three times a day, with distribution times and residentv was in the hospital for four days!
Unable to shower since May 2019!

We went on a tour at The Brielle at Seaview, it was very nice there, but expensive. I liked that it was clean and I was allowed to take my dog with me. They take the residents shopping, to doctors' appointments, and on fieldtrips. They also serve three meals a day. They showed us apartments where you have to share your living room and kitchen with a roommate.

Buyer beware. My family visited the place, beautiful. Perfect. They give us a price. We go back to sign the papers. Boom! Here comes the truth! 1,100.00 more a month than discussed, first time sign up fee $2,000.00, a fee for this, a fee for that. Bait and switch. Forget about it. Look at it here's.

The Brielle at Seaview is a brand-new place, but I do not like it. Half of their residents are kosher, and I am not. It was more expensive and had smaller rooms than the other place I visited. I felt like they needed to make the place feel like a home other than being industrialized.

My father is in The Brielle (The Brielle at Seaview) right now. It’s brand new and clean. He has been there now three weeks, and I’ve seen improvement already. The staff is excellent. They give very good feedback on his progress, call me when something is wrong, and give very good attention to him. I would recommend The Brielle highly.

The Brielle at Seaview is a great, brand-new place. It had all the facilities that we needed, like medical, a gym, and a place to do blood work. The person who did the tour was great. The dining area was fine. I was very happy with it. Everything looked good. The set up was very nice.

I didn't like The Brielle at Seaview. I was there on a Monday, and they gave me a tour, and we agreed I come back on Friday. The following day, they kept calling me. The people there seemed to be a bit of a younger crowd and having the greatest time playing cards. The rooms were very small. It's a nice place, but I didn't like their sales approach.

The Brielle was a beautiful setup. It's surrounded by park land, which was very nice, so if they wanted a nice walk, they could actually walk into the woods at least where there were green and living things. It was very pretty, and this was before it had actually had a special opening. And the rooms were going to be very nice; it was also going to be very nice, but they were not up and running yet. Based on how they were set up and just because they had not opened yet, I would give it a 4, but only because when I saw it, it was not opened yet. It was brand-new and also very gorgeous, and the room setups were very nice. I don't remember if they had kitchenettes, but they had really nice living spaces. They had a library, and they had nice things. It was a very nice setup. Sometimes you look at it, and you're looking after your parent and you say, "How could you not want to live here instead of alone?" It was not opened yet, but it did look like they knew what they were doing. And the people that we met couldn't have been nicer; it's just that there were no residents in there yet.
