Sunrise Senior Living

My mom moved back into this community for a second time because she remembers how much at home it felt. It’s so important to us as her family, knowing that she’s safe and in a great community, who truly cares about her.

I moved in not that long ago and so far my favorite thing is meal time because the food is really good and I also like to get to know the other residence who live here, I also really enjoy the weekly ice cream social where we can sit and talk and get to know each other and just enjoy each other’s company

I just moved in with my husband and we love it here. Our apartment has a full size kitchen and huge patio that our dog just loves so much. Very quiet neighborhood and [name removed] at the front desk is so friendly.

Much better than [removed name] (which, now that I have something to compare, I'd give a 3). There is Low/no(?) staff turnover (which was an issue at [removed name]. The Staff is very professional, friendly, courteous. Apartment is small but my understanding is that's to be expected in Memory Care. There's one member of the nursing staff that's less professional and a bit too "rough around the edges" for my taste but she's only part-time and everyone else is excellent IMO! Great activities. Mom always has something to do. If she's in her apartment, they come get her to participate in activities and meals. I like that. I would recommend them to others who are searching for a place for their loved one.

I really love this community because they really pay attention to the residence and their needs and they move the activities around two different things that all the residents like. For example, my dad really loves trains and they do different activities with arts and crafts with trains or they do a train educational program train themed happy hour. It’s a really neat place.

It is so nice to see things changing since the new GM [removed name] has taken over the building. Maintenance problems are taken care of in a timely manner. He has brought our standard of dining up & serving issues are handled even if it means the GM stays to serve. He has organized our staff and just made things better; not to mention the morale.

I have talked to many of the residents and asked them, what is special to them about living at Sugar Valley. Most of them said the same thing. I'm not lonely here. I like the community atmosphere and togetherness, and people are so friendly and kind. There is always something to do if you want to participate, that's fine, if not you can just sit in the atrium or library and read, that's fine also. Visiting with friends at meal time is so enjoyable. And the pleasure of having breakfast, lunch, and dinner, served to you. You have so many choices off the menu, plus no dishes to do which is so nice! The staff are so caring and helpful. From the chef in the kitchen and servers, to all of the employees who try hard to make living here enjoyable. But most important is our General Manager [removed name] who is trying very hard to make us all feel at home here at Sugar Valley. I am so lucky to be living here, it truly does feel like home! - Joy M.

Sunrise was awesome. They have good help, the rooms are nice and the landscaping is beautiful.

My brother-in-law was at another community where they were unable to meet his care needs as he was reaching the end of his life. The team at Sunrise of Lafayette Hill was there for us not only physically, but also mentally as well. We were lost with how to get him the care he needed and within 24 hours the team was able to get him to the community, settled in and comfortable. They took care of all of us and supported us in our greatest time of need. We will never forget that.

Got a wonderful tour by[name removed] She was awesome. She answered all our questions and she is a very careful professional. My wife isn’t quite ready to take the next step but she will definitely consider Sunshine when the time is right.

I was asked to post this review for our resident since she doesn't have an email. "We noticed a wonderful change in two weeks time when the new staff came in. Atmosphere was more upbeat. The change has been for the good of S.V. The menus and food wonderful. Jane G."

I truly love living here. There’s always something fun and engaging to do, and the activities bring so much joy and energy to my days. One of my favorite parts of living here is sharing meals with my friends we always have great conversations and lots of laughs. It really feels like home.

I truly love living here. There’s always something fun and engaging to do. The staff always love on my dog whenever she is around they are super caring. I love the ice cream socials they do every month

I moved in a few months ago and its been great so far. The food is really good and all the other residents are extremely nice. my favorite part of the community is the dining room because its so big I can sit with all my friends.

This place is really nice for my parents. You can really feel the energy with the light and modern decor. Residents all seem happy and engaged. She said it was cruise style living and I can see you'd have everything you need and more. The large park nextdoor and the outside space is a big bonus for us.

The team at Sunrise of Staten Island is professional, attentive, and deeply committed to resident care. Communication is clear, the environment is welcoming, and families are treated as true partners. The activities calendar is incredible. Residents are kept occupied at all times and there are so many fun events for them. A wonderful option for assisted living and memory care.

This is the second time I have lived at the courtyard at Lakewood. the reason i moved out is to go to a assisted living but I wanted to come home and be with my friends. the staff and other residents here make this home, the staff makes all the residents smile and the holidays are always decorated beautifully. Activities are very fun

My Mom has been at Sunrise at Lafayette Hill for nearly 5 years. She is thriving medically, physically, emotionally and socially. At 88, with MS, cancer and dementia, she is dealing with all this and is happy and living her life to the fullest. The staff at Sunrise and the residents have become her family who show her love continually. They pick up all issues and deal with them in a timely fashion and always include the family in all situations. They offer constant social programming, family gatherings and lots of love and kindness and with dignity. She loves living at Sunrise and always comments on how wonderful everyone is. I can leave on vacation and always know she is well cared for in my absence, always having her best interest in mind and actin. Sunrise has been a beautiful living situation for my Mom in these years since moving in. The staff is so exceptional and we feel like family. I give this place my upmost gratitude and highest recommendation.

I was quite surprised to have a good experience here. I tour at least four communities, and this was the only one that stood out.. Everyone was friendly and said hi. [name removed] was more than exceptional and deserves all the success coming his way. I do plan on bringing my parents here for a second tour and I think this will be their new home.

White table clothes used for every dinner meal. Staff very helpful and knowledgeable. Get the feel that team work is present and management involved. Met a manager from California. The only down fall was their exercise room.
