Sunrise Senior Living

My parents, 96 and 93, love living there except for one thing- the food. When they first moved in last year it was good, but since then, it has gone steadily downhill, to the point where they no longer look forward to eating meals there. I don't know why Sunrise can't get it together and provide decent meals. Healthy food is the most important and basic component of a healthy lifestyle, especially for older people. Quite often, my parents will have my sister (who lives nearby) bring them food from a restaurant, or take them out to eat. This adds a lot of expense to an already expensive situation. I just want to let people know that this is a problem now at Huntcliff Summit, even though it wasn't before. We are very concerned and frustrated. I live far away and can only look on from a distance as my parents tell me that they get indigestion from almost every meal. They and many others have complained but the food situation is not improving at all.

I was impressed with this facility. Lovely setting, friendly people. The director was playing cards with a resident - teaching her a new game. It is likely we will need for my sister to "graduate" to full memory care and that part of the facility is separate and secured. Did not tour that part of Sunrise.

Not a bad place. If feels a little cramped, but nice people.

This community very nice, but is not for advanced dementia residents. [Name removed] was straight forward after hearing our situation. You should not recommend this community to anyone whose family member has advanced dementia. They are not set up for behavioral or advanced medical needs.

The staff was really friendly and the room they showed me was beautiful and bright. My concern here was the stairs - which was a beautiful staircase in the foyer - and just picturing my dad falling down them. I'm sure they have precautions for that type of thing, but that was my main concern. Otherwise very nice small intimate setting.

very welcoming. You could tell all the residents were happy and well cared for

Our mom and dad have only lived here for a short time. The staff is amazing. We truly feel that they care about our parents and treat them like family.

[Name removed] was very thorough. Nice perk with the house dog, cat and birds. Bistro area is a benefit too. Feel of the home is a Victorian mansion - very homey and comfortable

Excellent visit and very helpful staff. They have immediate availability and the room is very nice.

My wife was only in this facility for 3 days before passing away. The medical staff was very caring and helpful. Due to the short stay the $2500 Initial Fee turned out to be very costly one. The local administrative staff tried to be helpful but seemed to have their hands tied by the corporate office. I was very happy with the health care that my dear wife received. I too have a mobility handicap so the layout of the physical facility was prohibitive for my visits.

This not all inclusive. $$$

I liked Sunrise very much unfortunately my mom had a stroke and she can't go back as they don't offer skilled nursing which she needs. They were very friendly and helpful. They took great care of my mom. The only complaint I have is that they were very slow in getting the paperwork I needed to submit the claim for my mom's long term care insurance.

The staff and residents are friendly. Mom is adjusting to her new community. The food could be better and hiring additional wait staff would be helpful. All in all, we are satisfied .

Beautiful, well decorated building but did not care for the location. Still, it was quiet within and you could not hear the busy street outside. Small assisted living population vs memory care and those residents who were out and about didn’t seem to be communicating with each other. Good sized apartments and friendly staff. Mom was impressed overall.

Very nice and well maintained. Felt Very Homey. However it is a little pricey.

Beautiful facility set up like a resort. On the way to church in Auburn and bowling in Rocklin. There is a nice dining room in bristow with exercise room and transportation. Rooms were big with high ceilings and the rooms in memory care we're a little smaller but nice. Memory Care passes AR test pro quality and activities. Cable is not provided but transportation to doctors is. The one big drawback is the hours for dining, only one hour from 8 to 9 for breakfast 1 hour from 12 to 1 for lunch and 1 hour from 5 to 6 for dinner. If you miss those times you're out of luck. Also, they are $1,000 more expensive than the pines or almond height and they have 100% occupancy right now so we would have to go on a waiting list. Due to the waiting list extra expense and hours for dining we will have to pass on this one.

Truly caring staff

It is a new assisted living. They have a lot of kinks to work out. But, over all they keep improving. And the staff are wonderful! Everyone there cares. The food is decent. Depends on the residents taste. Some love it, and others don't. Elderly people want the food that they are use to, but the meals are cooked appropriately for an elderly person.

Enjoyed the tour and I felt very welcome. Love love love the location. The energy is a little low for my very active and social dad, but it is a great option that we are still considering.

My father resides in the memory unit. He is well cared for and the staff is great. His personal needs are attended to, he is always neat and clean. His room is well maintained. He has a specialized diet which is well accommodated here, this was the cause of his transfer here from another facility that couldn't meet his dietary need. He often feels alone and could probably benefit from some conversation but is hard of hearing even with hearing aids so this is a problem without a solution.
