October 2, 2024Hi Amy, Thank you for the wonderful things you said about Sunrise of Gardner Park and the dedicated care givers and team members. Our residents are part of the Sunrise family and we take enormous pride in having the privilege to take care of them.
During a very difficult time in my family's life the staff at Sunrise Gardner Park was able to help comfort, educate and put my mind at ease regarding my mom's dementia condition and the added care they would/do give her that I could no longer provide at home.

It is a very friendly place. It is a small homey place where a resident will not be lost or forgotten for service. I was surprised as to how large the nursing staff is there.

April 12, 2024Hi Rab! Thank you for the wonderful things you said about Sunrise at Gardner Park. We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review!
When I went visit my friend, I once walked in on a caregiver on the phone in my friend's room on the phone. I walked into the Television room and found someone sleeping in a chair. Too often, there is no one to be found. Meal times seem very crazy - not organized at all. Not all of the people can eat in the kitchen. I told my friend's family what I saw. it is just so sad that people who can't talk or understand what's going on around them are just not cared. very sad!

February 21, 2024Hi Maria, We take your experience at Sunrise of Gardner Park very seriously and would like to review this matter closer. Please contact info@sunriseseniorliving.com so we can promptly review and address these concerns. – The Sunrise Team
Assisted Living eat in a dining room. Reminiscence residents eat in the kitchen with dishes clanging, continue noise, and being unable to eat in a calm environment. What is provided for the first two floors is NOT what is provided to the 3rd floor. If you are thinking about having your family member live there, visit during dinner and lunch. It is awful how much is expected from the 3rd floor staff. Some people don't even in the kitchen because there is no room. I will not use my name because I do not want to upset the staff that care for my sibling.

October 20, 2023Hi, It is delightful to hear that you were satisfied with the personalized support provided to your loved one by Sunrise of Gardner Park. Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review on your experience. – The Sunrise Team
We picked this community, because it was homey, like a real home, sunlit, room was spacious, the place was not overwhelming, the staff enjoyed working there. It was a mile up the road and easy to get to. An easy work for my loved one to get to the dining room and parlor. Nurses are around till 8 PM too. Staff response to calls ( could use some more help at bedtimes in the a.m. and p.m.

I just didn't get a great feeling. The facility didn't feel great. And we had experienced a different Sunrise that wasn't attentive with activities and engaging my loved one mentality. Our tour at Gardner Park left me wondering if that would be the same experience.

The community itself seems to be very nice and overall the value is completely worth it. We aren't able to judge the meals because our loved one has to have pureed meals so its hard to know whether its good or not.

I appreciate that it is a smaller size /number of residents. The downside is the staff is also small, so if there are any staff you don't connect with it can be a challenge. I like their approach where residents are assigned specific that my personal care attendants (most of the time). I wish they had more of an online portal for ongoing communications.

I would recommend Sunrise of Gardner Park, it's a good place. the staff are very attentive, especially since mom has dementia, so it's not always easy. I especially like the way they take care of their residents. they seem to be very compassionate.

We chose Sunrise at Gardner Park because the memory care unit was small, they only have 20 or so residents so we thought she would get better care. The staff have been great about communication especially since we cannot go in. Overall, we feel very comfortable that she is here and we are very happy with our experience.

Our first impression of Sunrise was that is was kept very clean, and we really liked how nice everyone was. It is a smaller community, but that made it more personable. The food was really good we had no complaints. The rooms were beautiful, they were always fresh and very clean.

The only problem we have run into is that they have lost some of our mother's clothes. Everything has been done exceedingly well especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. The staff has done a great job with keeping the residents protected. They have managed well through the resident's isolation by feeding them in their individual rooms. The burden on the staff has been a lot, but they are doing a great job. The community went and bought iPads so we could FaceTime her. We can't say enough good things about the staff and care there. The food is great too and our mother is a foodie. They will also take them off-community for lunch and dinner. They do a very good job with individualizing each resident's care. The grounds of the community are also beautiful. We would recommend to anyone looking for senior living for a loved one.
