Sunrise of Gahanna

We chose Sunrise of Gahana because it is a smaller facility so it is not as overwhelming as some of the larger places and it is also all on one level so there are no stairs of elevators to worry about. The room sizes at the facility are pretty good, we were able to fit all of her things in here with plenty of space. I would definitely recommend to others looking.

We chose Sunrise at the time because of the convenience and we needed a temporary place for him to stay until another facility opened up. The room sizes here were quite adequate for his needs. The staff here were terrific. The neighborhood type of the facility were very nice, so it was not a big huge facility. I would recommend them and have been.

We feel like this community is serviceable, and our loved one struggles to eat the food due to cognitive issues. We wished the encouraged and help her more to eat. We do like the rooms they are very nice, they would be a five out of five.

This community was top-notch before they closed everything down, everything was very clean, unfortunately we have not been able to visit in awhile due to COVID. The staff including the nurses and management were awesome and would go out of their way. Some of the aids were awesome, and some were not. The activities our loved one participated in she really enjoyed.

The staff is nice and the place is clean, however they did not care for our loved one like they initially promised. They did not clean her properly, she was a mess all the time. She developed blood clots in her legs and had to be hospitalized due to the lack of care she was receiving.

I thought Sunrise of Gahanna was wonderful! The building was beautiful and all the natural sunlight was pleasant. The staff was friendly and helpful. The memory care area was very nice. I would say it's the best I have seen and the staff are patient and kind! Most of the memory care units look like a prison and are very depressing. Sunrise was cheerful and had many activities just for memory care residents.

I cannot express thanking the staff at Sunrise for the excellent care my mother received. The staff were very caring and loving. The staff knew the individual and would call the individual by their first name and give them hugs. Rooms were always cleaned and the meals were wonderful. They had a different activity each day.. If there was a problem they would call and let us know. What a great experience. I would leave Sunrise and have a peace of mind leaving.

While looking at other communities this facility was nice and we really liked it. It was actually in our top final choices before making a final decision. One small thing was the staff to resident ratio wasn’t necessarily adequate, seemed little less than it could be. It had 4 little neighborhoods (as they called in) in the facility. 2 were Alzheimer’s care and the other 2 were assisted living. It was kind of cute that each neighborhood looked like a home from the outside. They had their own living room and dining area. It seemed smaller which was nice and it had a homey atmosphere.

The staff enjoyed talking with the patients and knew their names and interests. The facility was a little run down but welcoming.

My friend is having a rough time here as she needs the lift to help her get in and out of bed and they are slow to respond to her calls when she needs her bed pan. I make sure that I go there everyday as I feel management has the community understaffed. The are 4 different houses and each house has 12 residents with 1 staff member. the staff that is there are very nice and they do try to stay on top of things. Unfortunately, there are very few communities that have lifts and can accommodate residents like my friend. I do have to supply all of her personal care items as well.

We were looking here as an alternative for my father and the gentleman who helped us with our tour did a great job, he answered all our questions and took his time with us the community was nice and would have been a good fit for my father. It would have been a very hard transition for my father as he depends on my mother so we were lucky that we did not have to move him. I would definitely recommond this community to everyone.

My father seems to have adjusted well to this community. I do comfortable with his move to this facility. He is safe, and in good hands. They have good staff, and they are kind, and have been helpful when needed. The community looks nice, and clean when I visit. They have activities offered for the residents. Everything has worked out well for us in this community, and I would recommend it to my friends.

The Sunrise of Gahanna is a beautiful well kept community. Everything is fine after a few bumps we had to overcome. In my opinion, they could use more variety in their selection of activities for the residents. There seemed to be a lack of participation from the residents. The staff was friendly and provided the care we were looking for. We are going to move to another community because of affordability.

I had an okay experience during my tour of this community. Everyone was kind to my family, and I. The staff we met was friendly, and our questions were answered. The community appeared to be well-kept. Everything went well, but I did not feel this was the right fit for my father.

Very nice people here at this community. My tour of it went well, but their prices were to expensive for our budget.

We toured this community for my father in law, and his needs. There were many factors that played into where to place him for his needs. Our tour of this community went well, but we didn't feel this was the community for us.

I loved this community when we looked at this. There is an area where the residents can sit outside. The section my loved one would have been in was small and it had a good ratio of staff to residents. They offer an exercise class in the morning. They take them on outings once a week.

Not at all pleased. Was lied to about costs. Only had 1 aide per 12-14 patients. It was clean and open -- felt great when we first toured -- not after Mom was there.
