Sunrise at Bay Village sits on three quiet, wooded acres just a short distance from Chesapeake Bay, and the place has a calm feeling with gardens, patios, courtyards, an outdoor fireplace, and a bird-watching veranda, so residents can enjoy nature when they want. The building is two stories, and inside, there's a big, bright atrium with a grand piano, wide hallways, and large private studios or one-bedroom homes that let people keep their own space and comfort. Residents have access to assisted living, memory care-like the Reminiscence Program and Terrace Club-and other options such as independent living, skilled nursing, continuing care, and short-term stays, so different needs get met as they change.
Staff stay on-site all day and night to help with things like bathing, grooming, and medication reminders, and they include nurses as well as specialists for psychiatric and in-home health care. Meals come three times a day, and there's always a choice to eat in the Chesapeake Dining area, at the bistro, at the Compass Club Bar, alone in your room, or with friends or family, and meals match different diets and tastes. The weekly schedule offers all sorts of activities, from arts and crafts and music to book talks and games; there are theater shows, a fitness center, a therapy suite, and art classes in the studio with plenty of supplies. There's also a small general store, a coffee shop, guest parking, a full-service salon and barber, an on-site pharmacy, and plenty of spots for watching birds, chatting with neighbors, or just sitting quietly.
Laundry, linen changes, and housekeeping happen once a week, and residents get help with these chores if needed, especially for those who like things tidy but can't manage it themselves anymore. Pets are welcome, and there's parking for residents as well as a shuttle service for shopping and appointments, which is handy for those who no longer drive. The community uses modern technology to keep people healthy and safe, like frequent cleaning and personal protective equipment. People pay fees by check or credit card, and there's a $4,000 entry fee. Some folks may like having the quiet of a studio home, while others enjoy the extra space of the one-bedroom, and the steady schedule lets people know they'll always have activities, meals, and support. Sunrise at Bay Village offers thoughtful choices and steady care, helping people keep dignity and comfort as they age.
