Sunrise of Dresher

The staff on the memory care floor is wonderful, very caring. My sister's apartment (room) is small but adequate and the facility offers many in house activities and they periodically take the residents on a field day, ie to the park, a picnic, etc. I would highly recommend Sunrise of Dresher.

Overall, we are very happy with our choice of Sunrise at Dresher. Mom has been happy there and has made friends. The staff and in particular the nurses on staff are very pleasant to deal with. I have found the facility to be very clean. The carpets are vacuumed in the residents' rooms on a regular basis, and the bathrooms are cleaned regularly, and the trash emptied at least once or twice a day. I have found the staff to be generally friendly and caring. Of course, there are some that you connect with better than others, but that would be anywhere. The quality of care is generally very good. Occasionally, they may be short staffed and need a reminder about something, but generally, we have been very happy with it. The nurses on staff in particular are very loving and caring and I can tell they genuinely care about mom. She has had a few medical issues while she has been there and they have been dealt with very well. They have a nice dining room and if the family members would like to eat with the resident, they may do so for an additional charge. They have a good selection of meals. although I have only eaten there a few times the food seems to be good and nutritious , but of course that depends on your individual tastes. They have a good selection of activities with different things happening each day. The residents are encouraged to participate, but not forced to if they are not feeling like it. There are different activities for different interests. We have found the current activities directors to be very pleasant and caring. they have wonderful musical entertainment once a week and occasional outings. Of course it's expensive but at the time last year when we were checking into places, it was competitively priced, and actually cheaper than places we were less impressed with. We have been very happy with our choice.

The employees involved with hosting and eventually caring for my mother were exemplary. Specifically, Marilyn and Brandie, and eventually Alysha and Julie. I do not know how you recognize staff, but Marilyn and Brandie deserve recognition as model employees. In the short few weeks my mother was in independent living these two women were friendly, welcoming, kind and attentive. When my mother was returned to the facility on hospice and totally incapacitated, these two ladies interacted with her seamlessly in the same friendly manner. I do not know how they vet applicants for employment but it worked wonderfully for these women. I do not know how they reward or recognize individuals that are prefect stewards of the brand, but these two women deserve that recognition. I don't have experience with many individuals with similar roles throughout the facility but these women need to be recognized and retained. They work the second floor including Room 204. If your loved one need care, seek their areas of responsibility.

Ihighly recommend Sunrise of Dresher. My mother lived there for 2 years and 3 months. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The facilities were clean. The residents looked happy and well cared for. The food was good. There were many activities available daily. At the end, my 97yo mom needed hospice care which the Sunrise staff coordinated with. The staff was so kind, especially at the end. The one time I had a real problem with a staff member, she was let go within the week. They do not tolerate disrespect from the care givers.

The staff and residents are all very kind to my Mom. She has dementia and is not really all there but people say hello and make her feel acknowledged.

The most friendly and caring staff. Marilyn, Mary, Alex, Alicia, Maureen - KUDOS TO THEM. The only complaint is that for the cost we pay each month, there should be a MUCH BETTER choice of cable TV service. Shame on COMCAST for their pathetic choices. And shame on the Sunrise company for not being able to work out a better contract for cable.

Amedysis Hospice staff were onsite everyday for my husband. Facility was a manageable size, approximately 66 units. Each room had controllable thermostat. Laundry facilities available for residents. Supportive staff.
