Sunrise at Wood Ranch

Sunrise was a very nice place. It had very nice and helpful staff. They were great, and I liked it. I also liked all the programs they had. However, it was too far from LA County.

I settled my husband at Sunrise, and I have nothing but good to say about them. It is very close to my house, so I can go there frequently. It is very homey. When you go in the front door, there is the lobby and a concierge. They have a large room on the left that has couches, a TV, and a fireplace. You can have the privacy of that room if you want, and it's nice. All of the workers are extremely kind, very thoughtful, and everybody's full concern is towards the safety and well-being of the residents. In my experience, they will do almost anything it takes to keep their people safe and well taken care of. It seems like a genuine caring, not just artificial smiles for publicity. There was one incident when my husband fell completely asleep and he slid down out of the chair and onto the floor. They called me right away. They said, "He didn't get hurt. He is fine. We want you to know that there has been an incident that occurred." I appreciate that they keep me posted. They also have a dentist who comes in and takes care of their teeth. My husband lost a crown on his tooth a week or two ago, and today the dentist himself called me and told me that he has been there, and told me what they resolved to do. My husband, at one point, had a male roommate who did create some small problems; they immediate arranged to change him out, and now my husband has the room for himself for the rest of that period. They are really good about taking care of their people. The rooms are nice and kept really clean with lots of storage. They have a shared bathroom, but these are immaculate. I have eaten dinner there three or four times, and the food is wonderful and really good. The people have a choice of two salads, then two different entrées, and two sandwiches. They have dessert. They also have snacks for them. They have nice little things going on. They run their own shuttle or van with the people and take them shopping or take them out for lunch, if they have a little gathering. If I have the money, I will move in there myself.

We loved it at Sunrise. That was our second choice. It's just the rooms were too small. The staff and the facilities were wonderful and great and the food was good.

Sunrise at Wood Ranch is marvelous. They have separate communities and neighborhoods for different disabilities or different weaknesses that the elderly have. They have exceptional food. I can't say enough good things about it. It's an incredible, loving, encouraging place. They try to incorporate the families to participate in the care of their elderly by providing activities that encourage the whole family. They seem to think of every detail to make it the most wonderful residence.
