Easy transition

My mother in law has adjusted well to Sunrise and is making friends, enjoying the activities, and really appreciates the kindness and attentiveness of the staff. The location is also good. She hasn’t been there too long so I can’t give a long term review bi so far, so good!

Felt at Home!

Even before we moved my mom in, we felt the warmth and caring of the entire staff. As soon as my mom moved in, she immediately felt at home! Cannot stress enough how amazing the staff is. My mom does receive a level of care and assistance as she is wheelchair confined and has some memory issues. Despite this, she has never missed an activity or event and the staff was great at getting her acclimated.

'Fall Short'

The positives were the staff and cleanliness. The negatives far outweigh e.g. the food was tasteless which I heard other residents complain about in addition to my mother, my mom went to the hospital and I was not informed by Sunrise but the emergency room doctor, the payment portal did not work & as a result we ended up paying exorbitant late fees - just a few of the issues that I can recall but there were more unfortunately. For that price I expected way better.

We could not be more impressed with the caregivers and nurses at Sunrise. They helped us transition my father to a supportive, caring community that he needed at this stage of his life. Thank you!

Simply the best

You really get what you pay for. Toured other less expensive communities and was not impressed. Sunrise at Sheepshead Bay is clean, lively, and the care is outstanding. The residents are well cared for and busy with activities. Would highly recommend.
