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.
Our mom moved to The Chelsea at Marlboro a few months ago and her experience has been terrific! We are so happy that the staff has made her really feel like she has a new home. Her apartment is clean and spacious. She enjoys the meals and the activities. We feel comfortable knowing that if we are not around, our mom is well taken care of.
