Highly recommend for short term care

What we like the most about the community is that they are very flexible and willing to make an individual treatment plan based on the person's needs. Wonderfully and kind staff. I would send my mom back in a heartbeat

Perfect place for my centenarian father

Since moving into Sunrise of Buffalo Grove, my 105 year-old father has made new friends, put on a few healthy pounds, improved his word puzzle skills, and received outstanding care from the staff. My wife and I sleep well, knowing he is safe and secure, receiving a level of care that we simply could not provide. He now has a new home.

Great experience - thank you Sunrise Buffalo Grove

My mom loves the people, the facility, and the food at Sunrise in Buffalo Grove. I am grateful that I can feel comfortable knowing that my mother is being well taken care of - she is in a safe & comfortable environment, she is healthy, she is happy, and she is being well taken care of. The staff is great (extra kudos to [names removed]) - they have all helped with the transition for my mother into the Sunrise Buffalo Grove ALF. I would highly recommend Sunrise!

Friendly staff

The staff at Sunrise is very warm and friendly and takes excellent care of my mom. We have been very happy with Sunrise of Buffalo Grove. They do an excellent job at communicating to us about any updates with my mom. I feel much better having her at Sunrise vs living on her own.

Sunrise of Buffalo Grove - A wonder place with wonderful people!

My mom has been a resident of Sunrise Buffalo Grove for almost 4 years now. Moving in during the pandemic year was not ideal, but the staff at Sunrise were amazing at keeping the residents engaged and active all the while keeping them safe and healthy. As they moved out of the lockdown phase, it became even more evident why moving mom to Sunrise was a great decision. The programs that are offered daily help residents get to know one another through physical as well as mental activities (balloon volleyball is a particular favorite!) Mom has made so many great friends during her time at Sunrise! As is the case with many her age she is not without medical issues. Her medications and overall health are monitored daily and the nurses are all so wonderful at keeping us appraised of mom's overall health. Each and every caregiver treats mom as if she were family. You can't as for more than that!

Home sweet home

In December of 2018 my sister and I interviewed several Assisted Living facilities for our mom. When we went to Sunrise of Buffalo Grove we knew this was going to be the one. The place is warm, employees were extremely nice and friendly and very knowledgeable . They knew this transition was going to be a very difficult one and made it a wonderful experience. 5 years later we still feel the same. Everyone cares about their residents and their families. We would recommend Sunrise of Buffalo Grove to anyone looking for Assisted Living with memory care as an option if needed.

Great place with wonderful caring staff

My mom has been at Sunrise for the past 2 years, most recently in their memory care section called Reminiscence. She receives the best care from friendly knowledgeable staff that go out of their way to keep her happy, comfortable and safe. She loves the food there and I notice many activities from music to performances to games that keep her mind engaged. I am so grateful for the wonderful care she receives and I cannot recommend Sunrise enough!!

It is everything they say it is

The staff is friendly, genuine and truly cares. The community is so warm and cozy. They are so good at communicating and follow-up. Our mom just left a community that truly changed her and not for the better. We can already see changes in her and makes us so happy. We are all so happy visiting her here because we can enjoy our time with her instead of worrying about her well -being.

Experience at Sunrise of Buffalo Grove

My loved one was previously a resident at Sunrise of Buffalo Grove and her experience at this facility was very good overall. The cleanliness and the food were both great. The friendliness, care services, value for cost and staff were good. I will say that many of the caregivers know English as a second language, so understanding them and being understood by them was occasionally difficult. Overall, I would recommend Sunrise of Buffalo Grove to others!

Only complaint about the food was "too many peas". 4 is only because sometimes her weekly room cleaning was delayed. They did an amazing job though with the staffing issues everyone is facing. Mom really liked the people and activities

Cozy Atmosphere

If you want more of a cozier feel than a bigger community feel, this is a good place for your loved one. The community has recently had some turnover of care staff. The staff communication with the family is great, and they are willing to answer our questions or address our concerns.

tour review

Our family had an in person tour and it was a very positive experience, the person who gave the tour was excellent. However the rooms were just a little tighter and smaller, and the community was just a little older. It felt homey but just did not have that brightness to it
