Sunrise Senior Living Assisted Living is the ideal solution for seniors who value their independence, yet need some help with daily activities, such as bathing, dressing and medication reminders. We focus on individual wellness, and encourage continued independence with a tailored plan of assistance provided by well-trained team members available 24-hours a day. Assisted Living is not only a home-like, resident-centered alternative to many nursing homes, but at Sunrise, it is a completely different option to consider when a senior doesn’t require intensive 24 x 7 skilled nursing care.
Whatever the individual’s needs, our well-trained team are dedicated to fulfilling them with respect and compassion. All Sunrise team members are selected to serve seniors because of their big-hearted approach. The development of their skills is fine-tuned through the award-winning Sunrise training program, that ensures they continue to implement the Sunrise's Principles of Services on a daily basis.

Sunrise' Senior Living's Alzheimer’s & Memory Care Program is focused firmly on the individual and on providing a safe, familiar, yet stimulating environment. Our team is trained to value each senior and to recognize the different tastes, preferences and needs at each stage of their lives. Providing care for seniors with memory impairments can be challenging, but Sunrise has created a care option that works - innovative and effective programs with multiple levels of support. We recognize that memory loss affects every resident (and their loved ones) differently, so our focus is on understanding each individual senior and providing care they respond to positively.
Compassionate care starts with our team, who are extensively trained through our award-winning Sunrise University, to help manage the unique needs of residents living with memory loss and cognitive decline. They look for opportunities to help residents succeed at familiar tasks, perhaps something as simple as making the bed or baking a sheet of cookies. Getting to know seniors and their individual personalities is key, so that the team can help create situations in which residents feel safe, secure and engaged.
