Sunrise of Westfield is a two-story assisted living community with a Victorian style, where seniors can choose a studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom apartment, with features like kitchenettes with wood cabinets, granite counters, mini-fridges, and microwaves, and bathrooms with grab bars and emergency buttons for safety, some apartments offer private baths and inviting bedrooms with comfortable beds and decorative pillows. They offer both independent living and various levels of care, so residents can get help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, grooming, or medication management, and the building is set up to handle both ambulatory and non-ambulatory residents, with assistance for transfers and use of mechanical lifts if needed. The community has a separate, secured memory care building called the Reminiscence Neighborhood, built to care for people with Alzheimer's or dementia, where they use sensory-based activities and reminiscence therapy, and keep safety in mind with a wandering alert system and staff trained to manage behavioral issues, emotional outbursts, or confusion, plus specialized care for those who might wander or act out.
There's hospice and respite care for those needing extra help, along with Dignity Home Care, skilled nursing, and even short-term stays; adult day care and continuing care retirement options also exist, letting residents remain as their needs change. Sunrise of Westfield lets residents bring their dogs or cats, sometimes offers pet care, and has both indoor and outdoor common areas like lounges with fireplaces, theater rooms, a bistro, living rooms with cozy seats, and a porch and courtyard, all surrounded by well-kept landscaping. Residents can use Wi-Fi, an electronic health record system, transportation for errands or appointments, and even complimentary or paid resident parking.
Meals are served in a restaurant-style setting with a variety of options, including private dining rooms, a bistro, and choices for special diets such as low sodium, low sugar, and vegan, plus anytime dining. A full-time activity director runs daily programs, so residents have a schedule of educational, musical, fitness, and social events, plus community outings like trips to the casino, the theater, or the shore, and special groups like ladies' night or men's club. The staff is on site 24 hours, with a nurse available and a doctor on call, so residents can get support day or night; there are devotional services onsite and offsite for those who want them, beautician services, wheelchair-accessible showers, and attention to health and well-being.
