Sunrise of Glen Cove sits in a spot with green turrets, flowered porches, and views of trees and gardens, and you walk in through a nice lobby with an elegant staircase, comfortable sitting areas, and spaces filled with décor. The community has helped seniors for over 35 years, offering several kinds of care including independent living, assisted living, memory care like the Reminiscence Program and Terrace Club, skilled nursing, short-term stays, respite, home care, hospice, and continuing care retirement options, all arranged so you or your loved one can find the right support when you need it. People get help with bathing, grooming, and other daily tasks if needed, but still keep as much independence as possible, all with staff present at all times and an on-site nurse around the clock for safety and peace of mind.
The memory care area is made for adults with Alzheimer's disease or other dementias-offering personalized plans, a secure setting, and special activities to keep folks' minds active, plus things like reminiscence therapy and sensory-based programs such as the snoezelen for gentle stimulation. Sunrise of Glen Cove has a home care service called Dignity Home Care, where seniors can get help from companionship and personal care to nursing, therapy, and hospice support, so even those staying for a short time get careful attention.
When you walk around, you notice the wide variety of spaces like studio apartments and private suites with large windows, modern bathrooms with grab bars, and homey touches like artwork, coffee tables, and kitchenettes. There's a cozy bistro with a piano and coffee bar, an elegant dining room with linen tablecloths and flowers, a TV lounge, movie room, raised garden beds, arts and crafts center, beauty salon, and game and computer rooms, plus walking paths, fireplace lounges, and outdoor patios where folks can enjoy the fresh air or even plant something in the garden. Residents get free Wi-Fi, meals, onsite beautician services, free parking, and regular transportation for errands, shopping, and outings to local restaurants, which those who like to get out seem to appreciate, and there are always activities going on both onsite and offsite-things like games, movies, crafts, music, and educational programs.
Staff and caregivers have specialized training and work to know each resident's preferences and needs, following custom-tailored care plans, which can change if someone's health needs change, and the Reminiscence unit is laid out for safety and comfort with its own activity rooms and schedules full of things to do and ways to connect. Families get support too, with guides, glossaries, and resources to help with senior care planning and even discussions about costs and what to expect. Staff coordinates hospice care and supports both residents and their families, always aiming to help people keep their dignity and quality of life. The facility's close to Northwell hospitals, so extra care's nearby if needed. Sunrise of Glen Cove works for those looking for a steady, personal approach to senior living, from independent living options to the highest levels of skilled care, in a community with friendly staff, helpful amenities, and a peaceful place to call home.
