Sunrise of Westfield is a very nice place with excellent care

Overall, Sunrise is a very nice long term facility for Assisted Living & for Memory Care. The facility is beautiful & nicely decorated. It looks like a big mansion from the outside & on the inside Assisted Living section (wide porch, lobby area, TV room, café & dining room). In the Memory Care locked down unit, the combined dining room/activities room is spacious & also nicely decorated. The gated garden is very safe, quiet, relaxing & feels like you are in a country setting with plenty of covered shaded seating. It's a nice area to sit with family, weather permitting. The bedrooms are a nice size, depending on which type of room is chosen. The food is mostly good with alternative choices. The care is excellent, with many staff members working there for several years. On the downside, Memory Care pricing with add ons (depending on medication level, etc.) is expensive. The online Auto Payment system including notification updates needs improvement.

Warm and great community for mom

The time recently came for my mom to make the transition from independent living to assisted living. We did extensive research for an assisted living facility near our home in New Jersey before we moved her from New York. The transition has been incredibly smooth and everyone at sunrise has been warm, understood her needs and interests and have gone above and beyond to make her transition comfortable for her and our family. The facility itself is beautiful and clean and we are thrilled that she is being taken care of by a very professional and attentive staff. We are very happy with Sunrise in Summit and would recommend to anyone who is looking here.

Professional, supportive, kind with great spirit

My aunt has lived in Sunrise of Summit for 2 years. From day one, it felt like home. The people are fantastic - Miss [name removed] is especially outstanding with her kindness and thoughtfulness. We have attended many holiday themed family events and you can see how the staff really knows and cares about each individual resident. The place is spotless, and has the feeling more of an elegant home off the New England coast than an assisted living facility. We toured many before selecting Sunrise of Summit and the difference was night and day.

A Caring Place

Sunrise in Summit is just wonderful! The entire staff are excellent at what they are trained to do. The front desk welcomes visitors and keen on conversation while making sure Covid-19 protocols are followed. The caregivers are on their toes making certain that all residents are happy and well cared for. I want to take this moment to thank the entire staff for always being a professional team of incredible health angels!

My tour review

This community was fine but it was brand new and no one else was there so I did not want my loved one to be alone. The tour was great but it was just not the environment that we were looking for.

We chose Sunrise of Summit because it was a brand new facility and it is in a location where she grew up her whole life. The staff are very kind and courteous. We are pleased with our experience and would recommend to others looking.

Our experience with Sunrise

We chose Sunrise of Summit because at the time what we were promised seemed like the ideal situation. We do not feel like we are getting what we were promised in terms of the engagement and activities for my father.

My review of Sunrise of Summit NOW OPEN (Sunrise Senior Living)

Overall good experience, but one improvement they could make is safety. Our loved one has dementia and we wish there was a place for her to walk outside freely while still be safe and secured, but there is not. Also we have had some mix ups with the billing department that we are having troublegetting resolved.
