Sunrise Senior Living

Sunrise at Fountain Square has been the perfect place for Mom! She has made many new friends, is busy with bingo, exercise class and happy hour! The only downfall is she is worried about gaining weight because of the great meals! The staff has taken great care of Mom and met all her needs. She is wheelchair-bound so needs assistance with showering, toileting, getting out of bed in the morning and dressed. The staff knows her preferences and is always willing to help with a smile! Highly recommend this facility.

This was the best I was able to find in the area. Overall the amenities they have really stood out to me and it felt like this was the best for our loved one for the amount of money. There are three meals a day; however, breakfast consists of cereal or oatmeal. You get two free meals; however, one must be breakfast. I wish the set up of meals would have been explained better to us. The resident is able to dine for the other meal. If a resident would like to dine for dinner, the resident must have a reservation and a dining room assignment. I feel the resident should pick the meals they are getting for free. On Sundays the only meal served is brunch and it is served at 11 am, and they have cut out the leftover containers. There is a gym, and maid service included in the monthly fee. The internet isn't consistent and it would be nice to have this fixed. The outdoor area was supposed to be fixed by a deadline and the deadline has come and gone, and now the deadline has been extended by the community. The rent is going to be going up significantly to cover the renovations. Overall the staff they have, have been there quite a while.

The facility is able to provide "aging in place". My dad's health has declined but Sunrise has been able to work with Hospice to provide the care and comfort he needs.

Our family had an in person tour and we thought the tour guide did a fabulous job, it was an excellent tour experience but at the end of the day it was just not going to be the best fit for our family.

Sunrise was great. We just decided mom needed independent living.

We were impressed with Sunrise and this was our second choice. The community was very nice along with the staff. It was more than we wanted to spend.

All is well with things here at this facility. The facility is spotless, beautiful, and the staff we have met are lovely. My loved one is adjusting well!

It's a decent place for the price if you are looking for independent living. It is NOT an assisted living facility and doesn't offer any of those services.. Limited help for people with walking disabilities or balance issues. Food is only okay. Otherwise, the staff is friendly.

My Mother is in her third year as a resident in assisted living. She has a one bedroom apt. and enjoys it very much! It’s decorated with her favorite items. The staff is very responsive, caring, and helpful in time of need and special circumstances. The office staff is also very accessible whenever concerns/issues arise with insurance questions, etc. There is always an open door… The ED [name removed] is exceptional dealing with all of her duties, always a smile and clearly has a “servant’s heart”! There is never any doubt for me that my Mom is in the very best place for her!, Thank you also to all of the amazing “worker bees” at Sunrise!

Things that stand out to us about this facility: Safety/Security (front door is secured with alarm) and all guests sign in and get name tags, friendliness, feels like a family, pleasantly decorated, Holiday decorations, Activities for residents and families, Clean, Staff is friendly and attentive, they know everyone by name, wear name tags, they provide housekeeping. I visited many and this is the only one I would recommend.

Sunrise of Fairfax gets 5+ stars and we would absolutely recommend them to other families based on the experience we have had so far. There is not one thing we do not like about this community. The quality of care is super - when it comes to the care givers you can tell it is not just a job for them but that they genuinely care for the seniors. We absolutely love them, and our loved one is very happy at Sunrise. He goes down to the dining hall for his meals and enjoys playing bingo with the other ladies. He is much more social then what he has been in years. We feel so comfortable with them taking care of our loved one and they have truly made a difference in our live.

We picked this community because, of the level of care, location, cleanliness, friendliness, care concern of staff, resident programs.Things they do well includes; loving care. Resident activitites, well kept facility. They can improve by eliminating solid waste odors that sometimes permeate the hallway.

Mom [name removed] has been a resident of Sunrise Brighten Gardens for just about 4 years. She and I would like to thank you all for your caring attention during her time living there. She and I would like you all to know that what you do and for your being there on a daily bass is greatly appreciated . Mom is so very grateful for this community of people who are charged with her care, I as her daughter, feel fortunate that I can count on you all to meet all of moms needs with kind hearts and loving spirits.

Our loved one came here from another community and so far it has been a really good experience. There is much more staffing which has made such a difference in our loved one care - if she needs something she gets the assistance right away because there is always a staff member around. It is more expensive but they do have the extra care our loved one needs. Overall she seems very happy .

Sunrise at Fountain Square is fantastic. I love it. It's very, very nice. My parents love it there, too. They check up on them, they make sure everything's fine and going through this whole COVID situation and everything, they're very proactive. If anybody had COVID, they would start taking tests and everything like that. They keep a nice distance, but they keep a nice watchful eye on them. They have a two-bedroom with a full kitchen and everything, but they don't even use the kitchen that much because they use the meals that are supplied by Sunrise. The dining area is very nice. They have a nice fireplace down there. It's on the first floor and it outlooks to a nice little garden area and the service there is fantastic. The food is very good. There are lots of choices. They do a very good job with maintenance and upkeep. They repainted everything and redid the carpeting before they moved in. Everything is very up-to-date and very clean. You name it, they have it.

My brother, [name removed], has been a resident of Brighton Gardens in Florham Park since 2014. I am not sure my brother would be alive today if it were not for the care he has received at Brighton Gardens. He was initially in the assisted living section and has since been a resident in the Reminiscence Program. The care he receives is excellent. The aides are wonderful. They are patient and kind to everyone. Tom has always been happy there.

So far we are Happy with Sunrise. Staff is great. Only improvement would be with dining experience. They sometimes are late serving meals or don't have what residents ordered ahead. What they do well is keep place very clean and are friendly and caring to the residents.

The staff members have done a very good job seeking out our loved one and really encouraging her to get out into the community and get involved with the other residents and we really appreciate that. She says all the time how friendly the staff members are. Based on our experience so far we have recommended Brighton Gardens to others and we absolutely will continue to do so.

When you walk into Sunrise it feels like a home. The staff is super friendly and helpful. They make mom feel at home. As far as questions are concerned, if they don't have the answers, they get them and either call me or tell me the next time I'm in. They have three meals a day and snacks too. Mom doesn't always want what they are serving so they will fix her something else like a peanut butter sandwich which makes her day!! They always have something else for them to eat if they don't like the menu.

They've been very good with my mother. I think she's still difficult and having trouble adjusting, but that's her and not the staff. They've been extremely friendly to us, and I think they do a really good job with her. I ate Thanksgiving dinner there recently, and it was good. The facility is very nice, and they keep it clean. The cost is high, but I understand their expenses are high and that they need to pay their employees, etc. I get the feeling the staff want to be there, which is a good thing.
