The Sunrise Difference

 

All the Difference in the World

Sunrise has been caring for and serving seniors since 1981. Founders Paul and Terry Klaassen started with a simple vision — to create senior living that champions quality of life for all seniors. Today, we are one of the most experienced and innovative providers of senior living services in the world.

How do we do it? It's all about choices.

Life is what you make it. At Sunrise, we believe no two people are alike; we understand that the services each senior requires are never exactly the same. We call this our resident-centered approach to living. It begins with the senior and his or her needs. It results in choices—choices about day-to-day living, service and care options. In this way, we help maintain the independence and dignity of our residents and provide the best possible lifestyle and service options.

Our approach has made Sunrise one of the largest and most comprehensive senior living providers in the United States. Globally, we currently operate 415 communities with about 40,000 dedicated employees and a capacity for approximately 42,750 residents. We offer a wide range of services to meet any senior's needs: Independent Living, Assisted Living, Alzheimer's Care, Nursing & Rehabilitative Care, Hospice Care, Home Care and Short-term Stays.

Sunrise Senior Living is built around values. We started with core Principles of Service and, for more than 25 years, we have used these to guide our company. This has made us not just senior living experts but also senior living advocates. We work with seniors, families, community referral sources, non-profit organizations and government agencies to identify senior needs and to develop individualized programs to meet those needs. What is the Sunrise difference? It's more than a vision, more than a principle — for our seniors, it's a way of life.
