Sunrise of Rocklin

The Sunrise of Rocklin was a very nice facility. The people we met were very friendly and thorough in their explanations of things. We didn't have a whole lot of interaction with staff other than the office staff who gave us a tour of the part of the facility that they thought we needed, which was memory care for my wife. I would be staying in an apartment with her. We talked to one nurse in the memory care unit who was very nice and answered our questions. The lady who did the tour for us was excellent. She was a salesperson, so we knew she was trying to sell the facility, but I thought she was very good. The rooms that they showed us were very nice, one was even furnished. We would naturally be moving our own furniture into one if we had chosen them. I think we would be very happy there considering the help that my wife is going to need in the very near future with her dementia. They had a beautiful outdoor courtyard area with tables and lounge chairs. Some of it had a cover over it because it gets really hot where we're at in the summertime. That was quite nice. If you were ambulatory and had a car, they also had an area for you to park, so in my case, I would be able to come and go if I needed to. The lobby in the main area of the dining room was quite beautiful. You order off of a menu, but I didn't see a menu. They said they could cook for people with diabetes and people with Crohn's disease, which I happen to have both of. It would be a place where we can be very comfortable when the time comes. We just don't need it right now.

Sunrise of Rocklin was very nice. It was very sunny and bright. When you walked in, you thought you were like walking into like a country manor. It's got wooden staircases, it's got a beautiful, sunny and bright breakfast room and activity room to the right, and it's got little alcoves. It's smaller and it's more expensive, which is why we ruled it out. It was expensive for us, but it's a great facility. It's beautiful. They have a chef who comes in where the kitchen area is. They do like cooking shows, and he comes out there and does a demonstration. It's really pretty; it's very nice. The people could get cereals and orange juice. They could just go in there and get things. It was a great little setup. The rooms were nice. They had great big windows so that you looked out onto a little garden. It was really pretty. They were smaller, but not bad. They had like a Jack and Jill room. The living room was on one side, and the hallway and the bathroom in there, and then the bedroom. It's very nicely laid out. They had everything that everybody else had. They had the bingo. Everybody was down there doing something in the activity room when we were there. They had a whole list of things they do on different days there. They had a really cute living room area down there where the reception area was. The staff was very knowledgeable.

Sunrise of Rocklin was the furthest away from where I live. I checked out the memory care, and the facility was very nice. It's a very homey kind of atmosphere with a nice big porch around the facility with rocking chairs. The rooms were nice size, and everything was extremely clean. When I was there, they were doing physical exercises. They were sitting around and were bouncing big balls to try to keep them active. The lady who gave me the tour was extremely knowledgeable and very nice. I really liked her, and everybody was friendly.

Our visit to Sunrise of Rocklin was very good. I had a good view of the facilities and they seemed to be very nice. The person who gave me the tour was very nice and answered all my questions. The rooms were nice, everything was clean, and there were no odors anywhere. They had a variety of rooms and they showed me a couple of them, including suites, studios, and a companion rooms. They have a lot of public areas, and the memory care was secure so the residents couldn't get out. That made it difficult for a family to get in there -- they had to be escorted in and out. This had both positives and negatives in my opinion. Everything was very nice and very organized. I was greeted in a friendly fashion by all of the staff and the person who gave me the tour. It's a very large facility, but she seemed to be able to greet every resident she ran into by name, and she knew something about them. So that was very positive. I haven't tasted the food, but it was plated very nicely and looked good. I've observed an exercise class and a couple of gentlemen who were working on a jigsaw puzzle. There was a television area in the memory care, and there were dining tables where couple of residents were eating while watching TV. They can also have their meals brought to them, so they were able to dine as they preferred or as they did at home.

We visited the Sunrise in Rocklin and it was a very nice place. We didn't really delve into it that deeply but just the overall impression, it was very nice. We saw their pool, their exercise room and their dining room. We didn't speak with anybody there other than the person who showed us around but everything was very nice. A little expensive for our taste though. It was very well-kept and quite modern, and very up-to-date.

Sunrise of Rocklin was very good. We probably would have gone there, but the price was high for us. They had nice rooms and they had a nicely landscaped outdoor area. It's a nice location. They're probably the best of the four we've seen. The staff seemed good.
