Sunrise at Countryside

Sunrise at Countryside is a senior living community that covers a lot of ground, really, with places for folks who want to keep their independence, as well as those who need Assisted Living, Memory Care, skilled nursing, or even short-term stays, and being a Continuing Care Retirement Community, it lets people stay in one place as their needs change over time. The community has a bright, welcoming look, with a light yellow multi-story building, turrets, and a covered entryway with hanging flower baskets and a nice wraparound porch, and outside there are colorful flower gardens, walking paths, a landscaped patio, and shaded places for sitting and enjoying the quiet. Indoors, you'll find a comfortable TV room with bookshelves, a sunroom, café, lounge, and cozy dining rooms with soft lighting, plus common spaces with things like a piano and fireplace, where people can socialize or just relax. The suites are set up to feel homey, with kitchens including modern appliances and living rooms that look out at the kitchen area, decorated with fresh flowers, and bedrooms have windows showing green views, along with a twin bed and dark wood dresser to keep it organized and bright. Sunrise at Countryside has Wi-Fi, high-speed internet, transportation, and parking to keep things easy, and staff are always around and well-trained, with a clear focus on meeting everyone's physical, mental, and psychosocial needs, following the state's rules about only admitting people whose needs can safely be met, and every resident signs an admission contract to make things set from the start. Assisted living includes help with dressing, bathing, and medication, while Memory Care is specially set up for folks with Alzheimer's or other dementias, with features to keep things safe and reduce confusion, and for those who want a little less help, independent living options give people a social, active setting without giving up freedom. There are specialized features for different needs, including Dignity Home Care, hospice care, skilled nursing, adult day care, and rehab, so wherever someone is in their journey, they can find the right level of support. There's access to 24-hour personalized care, and staff keep things running smoothly, making sure there are enough people with the right skills for everyone's well-being, and the community has been recognized with the Best of Senior Living Award for its attention across so many types of care. Overall, Sunrise at Countryside has plenty of programs, cozy spots, outdoor spaces, and a caring team, making it a place that aims to help older adults live as well as possible for as long as possible, and all these things come together for seniors who want comfort, safety, and the right amount of help in a place that tries to feel like home.
