Mom's new home

Staff is friendly and attentive. When Mom first moved in they helped her get accustomed to living in a new home. She hasn't participated in activities yet. Food I'd good with many options at each meal. Mom has a studio apartment which is small, but good for her due to her mobility issues. Bathroom is large with plenty of room for a wheelchair or walker and an assistant to help her.

My recent tour of Sunrise at Willowbrook

[name removed] gave me a very enthusiastic tour of the facility. It was apparent she loves Willowbrook and its residents. Willowbrook has every activity and feature one would want. My favorite feature, If I were looking for myself, would be the indoor and outdoor porches. And now close to Halloween the front entrance is fully decorated with bright colored mums and corn stalks.

Review for Sunrise of Willowbrook

It was an unsafe place. My mom fell and broke her hip. They were understaffed. Almost no activities. One morning I had to help serve breakfast because no one showed up. . The management was horrible. Some staff were great, but underpaid and mismanaged. I do not recommend as long as [name removed] is Director

Disappointed

Sunrise of Willowbrook's medical staff billed me on two separate dates for services I did not receive. The one time I met with the staffer the exam, for medical clearance, was brief and cursory. I have informed Sunrise's executive director, the billing entity and Medicare of these erroneous charges. The food served was generally mediocre but ranged from Encore-like Salisbury steak to tasty pasta, pizza, and ribs. Frozen cooked corn was served way too often. On occasion, the kitchen ran out of milk, French dressing, my favorite diet soda and yogurt, various ice cream flavors, and wine. My table mate waited over a week at times for the wine to be replenished. Some of the staff assumed authority they didn't have, denying me food I ordered, telling me where to sit at mealtimes, and escorting me back to my room when I walked the hallway at night. I had very little privacy in my room because several staffers came inside without knocking or announcing themselves first. Several staff members, mainly servers, were outstandingly friendly and empathetic. The shower head is tiny and the water flow is weak.

We really liked the location of Sunrise Willowbrook and the friendly staff we met. We moved from a Sunrise in Richmond Virginia and the transfer was very smooth and easy.

Sunrise of Willowbrook review

My Dad wasn't there very long. Moved to memory care, died [date removed]. They had some really great people in memory care. Yes, I would recommend this community to other families, I knew he was safe, and being checked on. They were very good at communicating and needs or changes. The geriatric Dr. and his associate were very good!

Would recommend Sunrise

My loved one only stayed at Sunrise of Willowbrook for a little over 2 months before passing, but based off of the short experience, I would recommend this facility to others looking.

Positive expereince

There is plenty of friendly and helpful staff here. Until we get to know all the staff, it would be great to know on a daily basis, who is assigned and helping my mom. This is a very nice facility and they offer a variety of activities. My mom likes playing Bingo. My mom enjoys the meals. It would be nice if there was piano at Sunrise

The other residents appear happy and well cared for. They need more outings planned outside of the residence. Also wish they would offer to take residents to the store.

Review for Sunrise of Willowbrook

Cleanliness is good. The place is always clean.Activities seem to be pretty good overall, although there's times one staff doesn't just show up at all, so there's like no one to run things. They've also unfortunately been dealing with outbreaks of things in the community so they don't unfortunately always get out in the community but when they do stuff they do offer as much as they can and the activities are pretty great. Billing department makes a lot of errors and causes issues constantly. hey run out of food supplies often. Takes over an hour for food at times.

Friendly place to live

My loved one is currently a resident at Sunrise of Willowbrook in the Memory Care unit. Everything has been very good for her at this facility so far. The staff have all been very nice and friendly. Communication with the family is good. The move in process was very easy. The meals seem to be good quality and variety. I would recommend Sunrise of Willowbrook to family and friends.

At least one family member sees her father once a day and every experience at Sunrise has been great. Based on our experience so far we would recommend this community to other families.

The Community Was Very Helpful During The Journey Of Our Loved One

The staff are very friendly. They are very good and patient with the family in answering our questions. The staff have been doing a great job in caring for my loved one. They also have been very informative of guiding us on the health journey of our loved one. I feel like this is a good value for the money, as well.

Community Tour

Sunrise of Willowbrook was way too big. It was three stories, with three different care types - memory care, assisted living, and a retirement community. We preferred a smaller facility that focused sole on memory care. I did not care for Sunrise's memory care unit. A lot of patients were still lying in bed midmorning when we were there touring, as opposed to being up and active. The facility was very beautifully decorated, but it was just not the right place for our loved one.

We had a great tour experience with Sunrise of Willowbrook. The facility looked nice and the staff did a great job. They were good with their communication and follow up after the tour as well. We just found another facility that seemed to be better laid out for our loved ones needs.

Sunrise review

I do overall think Sunrise of Willowbrook is a very good facility. This was the first assisted living place that my loved one ever lived in. We did have one issue where she was moved into a 2 bedroom suite. She was there alone for weeks and they ended up moving a roommate in with her which was fine. They did not get along and they moved our loved one out even though she was there longer and was already adjusted and used to that room - so then she had to readjust to another one. We felt the issue could have been handled a little bit better, but the whole experience was a learning process for all of us. It is overall a great facility.

Great place for both assisted living and memory care

The facility is good so far. They have a tough job in memory care and they do it well. I really like the staff and they're well structured here. I also really like mom's room, its very bright and cheery. Housekeeping keeps the rooms clean and laundry is done. I like that they offer 3 meals a day and have options. I would recommend them to family and friends.
