Love it here!

Upon walking into Sunset they made you feel at home. Sunday night at 6pm prior to move in. I did some room measurements and discovered the room would be too small. I emailed the director Sunday night and we were able to change rooms. They use an app for check ins and I can see if she participated in an activity. Love the security After 5 pm and on weekends the doors lack and you need a code to get in. Staff is outstanding.

Taking care of mom

Sunset Park has been a blessing for my mom. The staff is caring, compassionate and attentive to my mom’s needs. The activities are engaging. It is clean and decorated so it ‘feels like home’.

I toured this community when looking for a place for my parents. Out of all of the places I’ve toured, this one had the best food. It’s a smaller establishment and they had local chefs that prepared the meals onsite. I don’t think the building was very well kept up with, though. Some of the furnishings were a bit older and the building, overall, was a little outdated. The dining area was nice, though, and the food was good. There wasn’t a lot of room to walk around because the grounds were sandwiched between 2 parking lots. They also didn’t have a lot of greenery or nice views, so I was a little disappointed in that regard.

All Their Services Are Great

I’m very pleased with Sunset Park Place because my dad is accepting the transition so well. The staff is awesome, the food is good, and dad is very happy with it, which is the most important thing. They also have a lot of activities and games to keep the residents busy. All of their services are great and reasonable, and I would definitely recommend them.

Very Pleased with Sunset Park Place Staff

My family has been very pleased with the very helpful staff at Sunset Park Place. The process of transitioning my parents from living at home to moving into Assisted Living was less stressful because the staff was so kind, caring and helpful.

Very kind staff!!

My mother has recently made the move into this community and it has been a little bit of a difficult adjustment for her. Although the staff are very kind and have been attentive to her needs she is having trouble making this place home. She has not been that impressed with the meals so I am thinking we are going to start making them for her. Overall the care is fine at this place and we are making the best out of our situation.

I toured this community and found the staff to be very nice and were able to answer my questions. This is a bigger community then what I was looking for. They offer me a lunch. at my tour and I was very pleased with the food. I like the staff who answered my questions on the services. Familes might want to tour this nice community for a loved ones care.

Experience at Sunset Park Place

Following returning home after hospitalization and several weeks in skilled nursing, mom was willing to look at assisted living facilities. My siblings and I had already checked out several. When we took her to see them she felt immediatlely at home at Sunset Park Place. After a month there, she is very happy. She feels that all of the staff are very caring and friendly. She feels "at home." I now need to make an "appointment" to see her, since she is so involved in the various activities offered. She goes to exercises daily and is first to sign up for the "party bus" when it goes out.

Taking some time to adjust!

The staff at Sunset Park Place have been very easy to work with and very helpful with the move. They offer a variety of activities for the residents to partake in. The community is well kept throughout and do a pretty good job with cleanliness. The food is not like homemade food but it is pretty good for a commercial kitchen.

I really liked this community. I was very impressed with all they had to offer. This was a community I was considering moving my brother too. The location worried me a bit, it is close to high school and my brother enjoys walking around. I was worried he would get lost. It is a very wonderful community with kind people.

We toured Sunset Park Place today and we were very impressed. From the moment you walk through the front door it is very inviting and feels like home. They offer an extensive list of activities and opportunities to make friends and socialize with your neighbors. We loved the theater, library, spa, and dining area. The apartments we good sized with great views of the lovely neighborhood. The memory unit was very inviting and comfortable with a private patio, fish tank and family style dining room.
