Review for Sunrise of Crystal Lake

Everyone there is nice and caring. Although sometimes not all on the same page. Sometimes we get different answers from different people regarding my mother and how she is doing. The room is small but nice. They could do a better job with cleaning. My mom isn't a very social person and I wish they would give her more guidance and encouragement. Overall I think Sunrise is a great facility.

The Best Memory Care Staff

The overall experience and the friendliness of the staff gets a 5+. We are not sure about the value for cost as this is the first, hopefully the last, time I have experienced this. We would absolutely recommend this community to others! The caregivers love their jobs and it shows in the kindness they show to both the residents and the family. I'd go there if I ever need Memory Care. Ps. He was only in memory care, not assisted living.

A nice place with great staff to care for your loved one

Overall the facility is good and the staff are very friendly and seem to know my family member well. They aren't very communicative when it comes to care plans, updates, and medical information. The onus is on the family member to stay on top of the communication.

Originally my loved one came for respite care. Everyone, especially staff has been very kind and attentive to my mother. It has made this transition in her life more comfortable and easier to accept.

Welcome and much needed help!

After searching for months through 20+ facilities to find the right place for our father I was pleasantly surprised by the sunrise of Crystal Lake community. We could not wait to get our father out of his current memory care and into sunrise and when we finally did we realized it was the best move we could’ve made. Everything from the facilities to the people is incredible. The communication about every little detail has been nothing short of exceptional and i can now feel that our father truly has the best care we can provide for him! Any reservations or phobia I used to have about visiting my father in a memory care unit are gone. The facilities are so clean and the staff is so pleasant that I actually look forward to going and spending time with my father.

Move In

Custom value. We looked at 7 different facilities and found Sunrise of Crystal Lake to be the most caring, warm family type place. Team member we would like to recognize- oh my!!! Everyone!!! Front desk ladies are fantastic! Always answering my questions and helping. [name removed] in sales was so sweet and caring. The ladies in the dining room could not be more attentive to each resident. The staff who stands out the most for us has been [name removed]. He has helped our mother time and time again. He has been so kind and patient, what a gem you have in him

Tips for evaluating your community options. Test Sanity (KJ)

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members: Test Sanity (KJ)

  • Know Illinois’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Illinois’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports. Test Sanity (KJ)

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit. Test Sanity (KJ)

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget. Test Sanity (KJ)
