While many families report a positive experience with the memory care staff, there is a concerning trend of complaints regarding facility maintenance, pest issues, and high costs.

Key Review Excerpts

My husbands grandmother was in memory care at Sunrise and received excellent care. She was well taken care of by staff and was able to be surrounded by friendly, helpful people.

Memory care family member · 2025★★★★★

My best friend is at Sunrise as a new resident. I must give kudos to the entire staff, especially the director, Angie, who made my friend feel welcome, and well taken care of.

Friend of resident · 2025★★★★★

Very overpriced, they charge for every little thing the do. The food is subpar at best, my aunt would call me and say there was no snacks between meals and if you went to the kitchen you would get yelled at.
