What this means for your family

Sunrise of Redmond is highly regarded for its beautiful environment and dedicated staff, making it a strong contender for those prioritizing an active social life and quality dining. However, because some families have reported inconsistent response times to call buttons, we recommend asking specifically about current staffing ratios on weekends and how the facility tracks and ensures timely responses to resident needs.

Key Review Excerpts

The staff is kind and supportive, the food is (truly) better than many restaurants and there is always someone available to help when needed. The other residents are happy and interactive.

Family member · 2026★★★★★

Though Reminiscence is a locked area, it doesn't feel that way. There are 3 large community rooms: the dining hall, the TV room, and the activity room. All 3 rooms have large windows and open out into an enclosed garden.

Memory care family member · 2025★★★★★

When my family and I initially toured Sunrise of Redmond for my mother, we were impressed by the facility and caretaking staff. However, once we moved my mother in, she has not received the care we were told she was supposed to be given.
