Financial

Financial Options

As a life care community, Freedom Village at Brandywine allows you to live a vibrant, active lifestyle now, knowing you’ll have the security and convenient access to higher levels of quality, on-campus care whenever you need it.


For an initial entrance payment and subsequent monthly fees, your living accommodations, services and amenities are customized to suit your personal lifestyle and changing needs, so you can reside in the appropriate level of care—whether it be personal care, memory care, long-term care or short-term rehabilitation.  A variety of financial programs allow you to preserve as much of your capital as you wish, which you may then pass on to your estate.


Many residents use a portion of the proceeds from the sales of their homes to fund their entrance payment. The IRS has ruled that portions of both your entrance payment and monthly fees are deductible on your federal income return as prepayment of medical expenses. You can learn more by consulting your tax advisor.
