Excellent care

From the front office to the aides they were all wonderful / caring. Wish I could remember the names of our two favorite aides but they were absolutely wonderful with both Papa and us as the family. They were all quick to answer questions. Would definitely recommend this facility. So clean, nicely furnished but most of all the employees are awesome.

Get to Know Your Care Team

Staff was very friendly and we felt it was a good match. [name removed], the concierge, is a great source for any issues you may have. Plus the price was more affordable. Get to know your loved one's care team. They will keep you informed of any issues.

Things to know

The majority of the staff are great, however, there are a few that pop in on a daily basis that you can tell do not want to be there. This has put a damper on the overall mental wellbeing and outlook of living in the facility for our parent. Unfortunately, when needing to stay in the room to eat because of mobility issues, we have found that meal delivery is very inconsistent. On average meals are being missed at least three times per week. The majority of time the meals are ordered with a staff member, but never delivered. Meal delivery to the room is not necessarily the norm, however, we have been told about 1/3 of the residence eat in their rooms.

Overall it is a nice place

[names removed] were very helpful...the wellness center and billing department not so much. It is a very nice place. My father said that he was well taken care of. Dad was a picky eater but he liked the food. The initial Wellness Center intake person appeared knowledgeable and accommodating however the Wellness Center never reached out to me regarding my father even though there was an issue with medication being ordered through the wrong company and unnecessarily, but Heidi took care of that for me.

Recommended

I would recommend Sunrise of North Hills. Though my loved one does complain often about the quality of the food. The biggest problem that I have had is getting the Sunrise doctor to call me back and communicate after she sees my loved one. There is a nice girl in the Wellness Center though, that calls me each month to tell me that my loved one is doing well independently.

Relocating our Father.

The people at Sunrise at North Hill in Raleigh were wonderful to work with. [name removed], was the primary person we worked with and he went above and beyond to help us with this process. Dad’s room is spacious and pleasant. He’s tells us the food is good and he’s met some other gentlemen he likes to sit with. Overall, he’s settling in well!

Would not recommend to anyone

So, my father was only there for about a month. During that time the staff didn't recognize that my father had gotten a UTI. About a month after he moved in he had contracted sepsis from said UTI and was hospitalized. I then took him out of Sunrise. While the facility was nice, the medical team was terrible. He had complained about the symptoms of a UTI but and even had the medical staff take a urine sample only to lose the sample and never bothered to treat his condition that lead to the sepsis. All while we paid around 20K for one month. I would not recommend that place to anyone. They called to tell me that he still owed 3K, get this, for the medical attention he received while there. In my opinion, I should be suing them right now.

Sunrise of North Hills review

Some of the staff are very friendly and some of the staff act like they hate working there. They seem to be short staffed and it reflects on their ability to give quality care. For example, when my brother pushes his call button for help it takes someone up to an hour to come to his apartment. Legacy, the physical and occupation therapy staff and care he would rate a 5. He has had excellent care and has made significant progress with the Legacy staff. Based on the answers above and the fact they charge a high amount and additionally for rides anywhere and other additional costs (not much included in base price), over $[removed] per month to pass out meds, and the quality in care is lacking.

We took a tour the other week and it was fantastic. Everyone took the time to answer every question we had and really eased some of our concerns. We are really looking forward to possibly working more with the sales team in the future.

Experience at Sunrise of North Hills

I was impressed from the initial visit and tour of Sunrise of North Hills. The staff throughout were responsive to our questions and provided insight as to what we could expect. The bar was set high and to date the accomplishments exceeded the bar's placement. Visiting the facility and my father on a frequent basis, it's obvious to the members of my family that cleanliness is consistently up to high standards. Friendliness- go to any part of the facility, observe and engage with staff at all levels and one walks away with a sense of friendliness, but more importantly--family. The care service provided to my father during our visits, the quality of care he receives and the follow up discussions that take place on a routinely scheduled basis--keep us "up to speed " and engaged in his well being. As for the staff, in places we visited, prior to Sunrise, we sensed it was "okay", yet something was missing until we arrived at Sunrise. Since that day and including our visit today the staff throughout accomplish their tasks not as a "job", rather as a "calling". Food- this item is one of those areas in which you can't please everyone. And residents tend to discount efforts made. It is overall satisfactory. The activities are well rounded, well balanced and, in response well attended. Variety of opportunities that most, if not all, could find acceptable for groups and wellbeing. Value for the money, for all that is provided and the balance of cost as compared to value, is well worth the investment for a loved one at this stage of their life.

Sunrises at Sunrise

Overall, the staff is wonderful at Sunrise of North Hills! The facility is super clean. [Name removed], at the front desk, is awesome! The sales person is very helpful. They were helpful with the move-in process and very accommodating. The cleanliness and friendliness are great. The meals are a big problem. I think that they have quality, as well as staffing, issues related to the meals and dining. I have eaten lunches there and it took an hour and a half to get a hot dog. Overall, I would recommend Sunrise of North Hills to others.
