    Caring staff, unfortunately inadequate end-of-life

    I appreciated the small, home-like setting - attentive, caring staff, very clean facility and dining room, nourishing meals, and quick, proactive communication from the director (especially during COVID). However, we were misled about the level of care: pain management failed, the nurse wasn't present until the morning he died, and end-of-life care was inadequate. Because of those critical lapses I can't fully recommend it for residents who need higher-level or hospice care.

    About Sunrise Garden Assisted Living

    Sunrise Garden Assisted Living sits in a quiet residential area at 29751 Ana Maria Ln, Laguna Niguel, with six residents at most, and the whole place really does put safety first, especially for seniors with memory loss, so there's a sprinkler system, air conditioning, privacy protections, and staff on hand around the clock to help out. The staff have training in memory care and come up with personalized care plans for people with dementia, Alzheimer's, or mild cognitive impairment, and they're always around to help with medications, daily care like bathing, dressing, moving around, and transfers, plus they do standby assistance right nearby if anyone needs a hand getting around or with anything else. You'll see walkers or wheelchairs making their way around the wide, level indoor lounges or getting outside into the garden and along the walking paths under the ocean breeze and warm sun. Inside, you'll find both private suites and shared rooms, all fully furnished, with private bathrooms and kitchenettes, plus there are washers, dryers, housekeeping, and linen services to make daily life a bit easier, along with cable TV, Wi-Fi, internet, phones, and air conditioning, so there's always comfort and connection.

    Meals come three times a day, often using organic foods, served in a communal dining area that's friendly and open, with snacks available, and if someone has a special diet or food request, the staff are quick to take care of that. There's a fitness center, a salon and barbershop if folks need a trim or some self-care, and game rooms and lounges for relaxing, reading, or playing cards, so residents get plenty of chances to join in social activities, movie nights, arts and crafts, or educational classes. Social participation is important here-you'll often see community-sponsored events or people sitting together, sometimes with visitors, because guest parking is here, too. You get transportation services to doctor's appointments or shopping, either scheduled or arranged as needed, and there's help for folks who need mobility assistance or have trouble getting out. The staff handle medication management, coordinate with healthcare providers, and can give a hand with all aspects of daily living. Sunrise Garden Assisted Living is licensed under #306005651, has no Type A or B citations, no substantiated complaints, with its last DSS visit on 12/28/2021, so there's a good track record there.

    The place has a homey feel, a bit of luxury but very comfortable-quiet, safe, private. The staff know each resident, support independent choices where possible, and work to make sure everyone feels part of things. There are community gardens if someone wants to tend to plants, daily housekeeping, and scheduled activities, plus non-medical home care always available. Sunrise Garden Assisted Living supports a family-like environment, with company around if you want it, and enough privacy if you don't. There's a memory care program with specialized activities, a dementia waiver, and even hospice waivers if someone needs end-of-life support. Whether someone needs a little help getting dressed or a lot of help with memory care, this is a place focused on meeting those needs in a relaxed, comfortable setting.
