My Mom has been a resident here for nearly a month (May 2022). So far, so good. Mom enjoys being around folks her age: she already has a group of friends as if they have known each other for years! There are daily activities; restaurant-style dining for 3 meals a day with a broad menu; a Sunporch with rocking chairs; and on and on.
My mother is 91. She was living independently at her own home until disaster struck and she tripped and broke her collar bone at her mailbox. That happened and so much more... topping it all off with the COVID VIRUS.
Sunrise at Five Forks is a lot like its name- this place is bright and cheerful. When you enter it feels like a happy holiday. All of the staff are kind, loving, and tend to my mom and the other people who live there with utmost care, compassion, and empathy. My mom is comfortable and safe. I love Sunrise and the employees who by the grace of God have the capability and desire to help others. They are diamonds in the rough.
My father has been a resident at Sunrise at Five Forks for 2 years. He enjoys the social activities, especially bingo and playing cards with friends. He also loves the meals that are served. Covid restrictions were difficult for residents, families and staff, but everyone tried to make the best of the situation, while keeping the residents safe. Communication with families is excellent. The staff is also very friendly.
My Mom has lived at Sunrise at Five Forks since 2004. She loves it there. The staff is wonderful with evaluating what residents need and meeting those needs. The fellowship between residents and between residents and staff has been especially meaningful to my Mom. This place is her home and these people are her 2nd family. I cannot recommend highly enough!
My mother lived here in the Memory Care section (Terrace Level) from Aug 2019 until she passed in June 2020. My father could not have chosen a better place and based on our experience, I don't hesitate to recommend it. The staff and the quality of care was exceptional both for my mother's needs and ours as a family. She was treated lovingly as an individual and always with dignity. She was carefully monitored and the staff communicated well with each other and with us. The slightest change in her condition was noted and treated appropriately. We visited every day, always welcomed warmly, until COVID-19 rules restricted visitation. Even then, the staff were in touch with us almost daily. After my mother passed, we were very touched that the section director and one of my mother's nurses came to her memorial service. Several staff members called in the weeks following to check on my father. This sincere concern for us just underscored our belief that my father chose the best place for my mother when the hard decision was made. If you are looking for a safe place for your loved one, especially in need of memory care, take a look.
Reasonable price and selection. Respectful customer service as well.
