Sunrise Senior Living

Small rooms. Breakfast and dinner. Assisted Living and Memory Care. Outings Too distant for easy visiting by family and friends. $4800.00/month for 800-900 square ft/ No entry fee.

A very nice facility, Sunrise living offers a well planned and well rounded variety of services and activities.

My mother has been at Brighton Gardens just shy of a year. Upon entering we were met with loving and caring staff members. Anytime I enter the facility I am greeted by happy employees. I find the facility clean and upbeat at all times. I feel like my mother gets the attention she needs at all times. Recently my daughter got married in Texas and I was concerned that all family members would not be in the area. I was reassured by [name removed] that if there was any emergency she would personally be with my mother ! It is a hard decision where is the best place for a loved one. For us as a family, Brighton Gardens has been great.

Wonderful staff, friendly and attentive. Very clean establishment, well run, employees new all residents names when passed in a hallway. Menu look good, more of a at home feel. Lots of Frank Sinatra playing! Rooms were nice size and had kitchenettes.

The facilities were very nice but the staff was a little loud.

Place was very clean. Great daily activity menu. Many people were involved in activities. Rooms were nice. Social areas were welcoming. Dinningroom was comfortable. Parking lot was full so we had to park down the street, which was a setback. Staff was friendly and very easy to talk to.

My mother has lived at The Jefferson for a number of years. It's always a big transition at first and she tried to bolt for the first six months. However, she now says that it's perfect for her and she appreciates all the services/amenities/staff. I commend the management for being creative, responsive and in-tune with geriatric study. The activities are way over the top -- can't even list everything from exercise to outings to games/lectures...so much. Staffing is always an issue in this type of living, but there is a lot of stability and many staff members go totally out of their way to know residents and offer a smile...many many. She was very worried about the cost -- seemed like she was paying a lot per month compared with her expenses in her own home. However, when you look at all you get for the cost, even she agrees that it is a great value for her.

Newly built. Very clean and a friendly staff.Rooms are small . Seems like residents are friendly, too. Not fully occupied. Offers many activities. Would like it to be closer to northbrook or Glenview.

Met lots of staff...chef, maintenance, memory care coordinator, operations director... all pleasant. Due to the delay of the tour, I also met several residents who had been there for a variety of length of times. 2 said food was not that great. All had no complaints. I liked the size (50 apartments arranged as two smaller communities). No openings at this time. Cost was said to be on par with [removed]. Recommended [removed] for their mother if no openings at sunrise. Model of sunrise used but others for cuddling facilities. Staff seemed to be there for awhile. Only staff who was not great with interacting was a med tech working the front desk. This position would interact directly with dad on a regular basis. Could be a problem. I failed to ask if staff could be changed if not responsive to dad.

The sales person is a bit interesting. It is very difficult for us to understand their "point" system. It seems like they are going to bill to what the insurance will pay. It felt more like a sales pitch than a caring visit. The property is very nice, and in a terrific area but we are choosing elsewhere.

This is a very nice facility in a great area. We liked the open community and dining area. Everyone was friendly and freely shared information. The apartments were all updated.There is not a lot of outdoor area.

Loved the environment. Only consideration is lack of skilled nursing/hospice for later stages.

The Place was great. The tour was informative and provided all of the information we need to make a decision.

Each of the sunrise communities were good, and could be a possible place.

Beautiful setting. People very friendly. Spoke with on-site physical therapist and other department supervisors. Apartments are nice. Warm environment. Can address all required needs. This could work for us.

Very comfortable older facility. While to rooms were reasonable the Care level rates were high.

The costs were above our price range. Facility seemed nice.

Very nice place, warm and friendly. Looks very well run and people are friendly as is Staff. I rated this four stars because no patio homes or "cottages". If a parent is alone and needs a safe environment, this location is excellent. Our problem is that the residents seem very old. I'm 74 and my wife is 76, but we are not ready for this type of situation. I still run EMS calls for our fire department, am treasurer of the [location removed] special tax commission and [location removed] (a community music act provider), and play golf. My wife is active in the church and golfs three times a week. It may well come to us needing this type of environment, but not now. [name removed]

This community is very nice. The staff ares

Toured on Thursday, [date removed]. Very convenient to where we live (in Lafayette Hill, PA). [name removed], the sales person was fantastic. This option is still open to us - however, it's number two on our respite / temporary personal care, specially for memory care for our Mom.
