Key Review Excerpts
“My mother spent her last months as a resident of Sunrise on Vernier, in hospice care there, and was happier than than we'd seen her since our father passed away and she descended into dementia and Alzheimers. It isn't an exaggeration to say that she came alive and thrived there.”
“The cleansiness and the food was outstanding! All I can say, this place was INCREDIBLE and forever changed our mind when it came to the diff”
“When I voiced my concerns about residents left to wander in and out of each other’s rooms I was told that it is not one on one supervision and that’s just how it is. I was constantly given excuses not suggestions for improvement.”
