Sunrise of Westfield

If you’re considering an assisted living home for a family member, I highly recommend Sunrise of Westfield. The staff is caring, friendly, and just overall amazing- and not only to their residents, but to the families of the residents as well. There has never been a time when I didn’t feel included in the community. From the moment that you walk in the front door, you’re welcomed and treated like family. I truly feel that the staff is the best that you can find. They have a plethora of activities for the residents to participate in and lots of family events as well. Every activity is different and entertaining. I can tell you personally that my father in law truly enjoys living there. He’s made new friends, participates in lots of new activities, and enjoys the overall community. I no longer need to worry about his wellbeing. I know that he’s being served restaurant quality food that he orders from a menu and is busy every single day. It’s such a pleasure to see this!

I am the relative of a former resident. We moved my uncle one into the Sunrise of Westfield. We met with [name removed] during this process. Making a life decision of this nature is not an easy thing to do. [name removed] helped us through the process....... [name removed] was a genuine caring, understanding, and compassionate person. And my family and I felt that we had a true advocate who was trustworthy, so that my uncle would not just be a number or a resident, but a person. You just got that feeling about the community, and it starts from the top. Sunrise is not cheap, but you get what you pay for, and I cannot say enough good things about [name removed] and the team at Sunrise of Westfield.

Everyone was very nice and very helpful at Sunrise of Westfield, even when I call and a staff member has to bring the phone to my mom. Always kind, always professional. Great place, great staff! Very expensive!

I love [name removed], the concierge. She is thoughtful and makes sure everyone has what they need. Even though I am independent, I feel comfortable asking any care manager for them and they’re there for me. I wear a knee brace and get help for that consistently. My floor is quiet, my room is gorgeous with lots of light with 3 windows and sun.

We could not be happier with the way Sunrise of Westfield is caring for our Aunt.We preferred the set up of the common area, the room our Aunt would be in, the physical location and the professionalism of the staff.

We picked this community because of, the facility itself, which was more like a homey environment. The communication needs to improve. They need a better channel of communication with the families.

I have had the pleasure of having both my parents reside in Sunrise of Westfield. It's not an easy decision to move a loved one into assisted living, but knowing my parents needed more care than they could get at home, I was blessed to walk into Sunrise. It is a beautiful place that feels like a charming bed and breakfast, it feels like a home. It is so clean and spacious and has a lovely wrap-around porch, and the building fills with sunshine from the large windows. The ENTIRE staff is professional, warm, caring, and honestly always treated my parents with kindness and love. The staff is constantly engaging with the residents and provides a wonderful variety of activities to fill the resident's days with fun and purpose. They care about each resident and treat them with respect. They form connections and relationships with the residents. and the families I would highly recommend Sunrise of Westfield to anyone.

Sunrise of Westfield is an amazing place! Not only do they treat the residents like family, but everyone that comes to visit as well. From days filled with activities, to trips out for lunch/dinner, to family events, we simply couldn’t be happier. As far as care goes, each caregiver knows the resident and their likes and dislikes. They get everyone involved as much as the resident wants. The building is clean, warm, inviting, and very well maintained. Furniture is often renewed to keep the home “fresh”. Absolutely lovely! Sunrise is not just a place to live, it’s home where your family will be loved.

Sunrise of Westfield offers a handful of activities for the residents to participate in. However this community was not at all prepared to handle the needs of our loved one. When we were first looking at this community they had a great sales department, but once we moved our loved one in, everything went downhill. The communication was really lacking. The overall look of this community is nice, but the rooms are more on the smaller side.

Friendly. Smaller community.

Loved this place. Very warm, welcoming. Rooms were really nice. Saw the Den Studio and it was just the right size. Clean, no smells, nicely decorated. Liked having the options of additional care available. [Removed] was terrific!! Thanks.

I have no complaints of how things had went for my loved one and I during our tour of this community. The staff where on time to our appointment and made sure to answer any questions I had for them in detail. I liked the open floor plan and all of the great amenities for the residents. The staff where professional and I did not feel pressured what so ever. It was just no the right fit for us in the end decision but I would recommend it to anyone.

I've just had to make the most difficult decision of my life....where to place my 86 year old Aunt, & best friend who has recently been diagnosed with dementia. A Place for Mom recommended Sunrise of Westfield along with a few others, & I can't believe my luck ...Sunrise has been amazing in every way! When they tell you they are there to support you, they aren't kidding! I had 1 week to move my Aunt from south Jersey to Sunrise, while I am living in Florida! The entire staff made that happen, & supported me the whole way....even when it looked like my aunt was going to REFUSE to come....they held strong & helped me through it all!!! My Aunt LOVES living at Sunrise of Westfield & gets the most amazing care!! I can't say enough about how pleased I am!

My father is here and likes it so far. He's participating in some of the things they offer and adjusting well. He thinks the food is better than the hospitals but doesn't have a sense of taste. When I see the meals they look pretty good. It is also more medically orientated than some of the other communities we saw. We chose this community because we were familiar with it, it's close to our home and it was highly recommended by A Place For Mom.

The tour was okay. Me and my dad did not like that it was so quiet around there. We did not see any residents out. When asked what was going on they said that the people must be out. Also my dad did not want a community full of women because women tend to make clicks.

They are great! My loved one is very happy here. It's clean and the staff is friendly. I don't have any complaints or concerns. I also like how close they are to us. It makes it easier to visit. We went to another Sunrise while waiting for a spot to open, and it was nice too.

location, location, location - my 1st choice for many reasons...

We thank A Place For Mom in helping us find Sunrise of Westfield for my mom when the need arose. We don't think we could ever have found a nicer place for her to spend the remainder of her days. My mother had dementia and Sunrise offered a separate but lovely accommodation for those suffering memory impairment within the assisted living environment. The staff is wonderful, dedicated, professional and kind to everyone and we admired their patience and skill. My mother is gone now but my husband and I visit weekly now as volunteers so that should help you to understand how much we appreciate Sunrise and what they do there.

During our tour I noticed that this place seemed a bit overcrowded. It was also not as clean as some of the other locations that we visited, and had a noticeable odor, which was a big turn off for me. Compared to some of the other locations we looked at nearby this was not very impressive at all.
