The care staff is excellent and admin listens to any concerns. My dad was only there for 3 months, but he made some friends, loved his care providers, and loved his room.

Review for Sunrise of Frederick

I definitely would recommend Sunrise is a warm, caring community with the right staff for my mom's needs. Other places here had her in memory care to get the appropriate staffing level.

Ask the right questions

It is only for persons who are independent and able to care for themselves without additional supports. My mother was delivered meals but adequate supports to assist her in eating were not provided. So over a few days she started to dehydrate and was extremely hungry and was only fed by family as the staff there said they did not have time to do these supports. Promises are made, circumstances and needs discussed but there will be no change in staff routine to accommodate client needs except a focus on writing checks to the organization.

The environment at Sunrise is warm and inviting.

It's warm and friendly. The people that work there really care about the residents. The care is very good. The communication is fine. They offer the following to the residents; Church service monthly, Happy hours sometimes, Card games, flower arranging, Musical entertainment, and they will have Easter activities this Saturday. Thanks so much for the recommendation.

When you walk into Sunrise it feels like a home. The staff is super friendly and helpful. They make mom feel at home. As far as questions are concerned, if they don't have the answers, they get them and either call me or tell me the next time I'm in. They have three meals a day and snacks too. Mom doesn't always want what they are serving so they will fix her something else like a peanut butter sandwich which makes her day!! They always have something else for them to eat if they don't like the menu.

I Found Sunrise to be very well staffed. The menu looked amazing, even though my father wasn't able to eat. Also everybody was very kind. After touring other places in the county, Sunrise gave me the best gut feeling as I was walking through.

We grew to love the staff like they were family. They were so good to mom and really were very attentive. Mom wasn't an easy person so this was not an easy job. During moms last days the staff was incredible to mom and us. It is an older community and not as bright and shiny like some but that's not what's most important. The food seems good to mom - but I think sometimes older people just like to complain. I remember mom saying when she lived on her own - if I just had someone to plan and cook meals I would be fine - but then when she had that she would find something to complain about. But nothing was wrong with the food there at all. It is a bit pricey but I think they all are. [Name Removed] and I visited quite a few other places - we hardly saw any care staff. And were told by some there was no set ratio of staff per person. At Sunrise they had plenty of staff except for the occasional Covid break outs and even then they had ample staff. In the last month of moms life she often had 2-3 caregivers checking on her all the time. Cafeteria and maintenance and office staff would come in to see what they could do for mom or us. The nursing staff was incredible.

would definitely recommend

Our loved one has only been there for a few months now but our experience so far has been great we could not be happier. The place itself is set up very nicely to where it is nice and easy for families to come and visit - the families come sign in, going through the covid procedure's and that is that it is very easy. Our loved one gets very excited to invite us for lunch - the dining hall is very nice with nice table clothes. The price is substantially better then then places we had looked at, and it is not as big and more accommodating to our loved ones needs.

Our Experience

Sunrise of Frederick has been great. Things started off a little rocky, but it’s only getting better. The staff is very helpful. [name removed], the manager is fabulous. She listens to what you have to say and definitely allows family input. The front desk staff, [name removed] and [name removed], are always willing to help out. The apartments are older but adequate, and the staff definitely outweighs the facility itself. We also like that the community is on as smaller scale and easy to navigate.

Sunrise Review

My mother has been at Sunrise since [date removed] and she absolutely loves living there. She loves that she doesn't have to cook or clean anymore and enjoys the food served there. The people that work there are very friendly and nice to our whole family. It's also nice that she is not by herself and lonely and having people around is comforting. We would recommend Sunrise to anyone who is ready for the next chapter of there life.

I would recommend the community to others. The atmosphere is good and the décor is beautiful. The staff are friendly. My loved one was happy here. The staff were good to work with, if the family had questions or concerns over our loved one.

To be considedered

This is an upper tier community and it is nicer. We toured six communities and this was the one that we went with. My loved one is not able to do many activities due to her being [details removed] so it is hard to find things for her to do withihn the community that she wants to participate in. They do have bingo and painting and more for the residents to do.

Highly recommend, it is the best

My mom is very content at Sunrise of Frederick and says it feels like family. The staff are willing to listen to everybody and really helped us with the whole move in process. Staff are very accommodating, when I pick her up to go to appointments they always have her ready to go. They are great with communication as well and always call with any questions or concerns. The facility is pet friendly and she has had no problems at all having her cat here and it makes it feel more home like, her cat gets as much attention as she does! We would definitely recommend them to others looking.

Tour of Sunrise

I had a great experience with our Sunrise of Frederick tour. This facility was my second choice for my wife. I liked the way the bathing facilities were set up here more than others that I looked at.
