Sunny Crest Apartments provides several kinds of care, ranging from independent living to assisted living, memory care, and nursing home options, with specialized care units called "Special Care Unit" for those with dementia, plus a range of health services including respite care, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, physical therapy, hospice care, home care, and adult day care, with other names in the group like Parkrose Estates, Peregrine Senior Living at Onondaga Hill, and Elderwood at Liverpool offering some of these options, so there's flexibility if needs change, and some locations, like Daybreak Syracuse, even have adult day care services available. Residents can take part in activities, with some facilities focusing on a social environment, and there are meal and dining options offered for those who don't want to cook, while other residents might choose to remain more independent and use their own kitchens, depending on the unit and the level of care.

Sunny Crest Apartments is associated with Flower Shops and Florists, meaning there's a wide selection of flowers and floral arrangements available for residents and their families, including sympathy and funeral arrangements, casket flowers, standing sprays, wreaths, cremation and memorial flowers, corsages, boutonnieres, hairpieces, handheld bouquets, and seasonal flowers like roses and summer blooms. If a resident or guest wants flowers for an occasion-birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, graduations, welcoming new babies, patriotic celebrations, or even just because-there's a variety to pick from, along with floral gifts that work for home decoration or to say "get well," which is a nice touch for people wanting to brighten up their apartments or share something thoughtful with friends or neighbors.
The community is family-friendly and puts safety first, with accessible parking, ramps, and a focus on designing the facilities for older adults who might have mobility needs, and for those who want more attention, there are care homes available in the group, which are small shared houses with live-in caregivers helping with bathing, dressing, and similar daily tasks. Sunny Crest Apartments isn't fancy or all-inclusive, but it provides a straightforward and comfortable environment for seniors looking for independent or supportive living in the Syracuse area, in a place where pets are allowed and residents have help available if they need it.
