Key Review Excerpts
“The staff all know him and his specific and individual needs, illustrating their personalized care daily. But in addition to knowing him, they have also gotten to know all of the members of our family across our visits.”
“The most shocking incident was when my mom was without her life-saving medication for 7 days before anyone outside the facility was notified.”
“I have visited my wife at Sunrise of Rochester every day for a month. Every day I am careful to observe the interaction of the staff with the residents. I am very happy to see the facility is very clean and well maintained.”

Key Findings
Recent investigations have identified serious safety concerns, including a resident eloping from the facility which resulted in a broken hip, and an incident where a resident missed multiple medication doses. While previous renewal inspections showed compliance, these recent findings indicate significant lapses in supervision and medication management.
Resident A missed several doses of medication following hospitalization because the hospital sent the prescription to the incorrect pharmacy and the facility was unaware of the new orders.
Resident A eloped from the facility, walking approximately 0.25 miles away from the building, which resulted in a fall and a broken hip.
