Sunny Side Living

Sunny Side living under the direction of Karen has been an incredible blessing to my family. Karen is a very loving and caring person and her concern for the well being of her residents is clearly seen in how well she and all of her family and staff take care of the residents. It is very obvious to see that the staff are inspired by Karen’s leadership and they step up to the task very well. Both my father and Mother moved into Sunny Side. My Father passed away after a few months but my mother continued on as a resident for 2 years before passing away. During these 2 years my family was able to see the incredible level of care provided to my parents and Karen took extraordinary steps to accommodate the needs of my mother and other residents as well. As my mom’s condition and needs changed, Karen would work together with family members to discuss ideas for helping my mom and she listened to family as we presented ideas based on our knowledge of our mom. We were all able to work together as a team knowing we all wanted what was best for my mother. As my mother’s condition declined, Karen and the staff adapted to her needs. Karen and staff took special care to bathe my mom even when it wasn’t easy or convenient. Karen was always looking for ways to make my mother’s situation as good as it can be given the added challenges. Karen made extraordinary efforts to keep my mom from being bedridden knowing that she was a very social person and needed to be with the other people in the house. The extra care was challenging for the staff but Karen knew it was important to my mom and she made it work. Karen and Sunny Side staff would make extra efforts to take my mom and another resident out for walks in the neighborhood when conditions allowed knowing that the outing was therapeutic for them. They would frequently take the residents out onto a deck to enjoy sunshine and a beautiful view of the mountains. The residents thoroughly enjoyed it. Sunny Side living blessed my father by taking him and our family through end of life through a home hospice program and they have done the same thing with other residents as well. Karen her family & staff treated the dying residents with respect and dignity. With the passing of both of my parents, Sunny Side blessed my family with love, support and compassion through a difficult time. Sunny Side is always very clean and very well maintained and there is a focus on cleanliness at the house. The rooms are spacious and there is an abundance of natural lighting that adds to a warm and comfortable feeling in the house. Meals are great and there were times when I was envious of the meals my mother had because they were so good. Karen would spend time with my mom in studying the Bible and having special teaching programs on the TV. When conditions allowed for it, Karen would take my mom to a creative writing class because Karen knew my mom really enjoyed the class and the outing. Wednesdays were a special day when several women friends would visit Sunny Side to have an afternoon of playing games and extra effort was made to include the residents in the game time. My family is profoundly grateful for the way Karen and Sunny Side blessed my parents with such great and loving care and we are so thankful that my parents were able to live out their last days in such an amazing home.

My sister is placed at Sunny Side Living. She gets immediate care, and when she wants something, she gets it. The place is very nice and very clean. The staff members are excellent. Great personalities. The attitude is great. They're helpful and kind. The residents can go outside and sit on the deck. It's bright and cheery. There's a patio and there's laundry. My sister is having a great time. She has her own bedroom. She sits in the main room where the dining room and kitchen is. The caregiver is right there with two other ladies. Everything is great. The place is super. It's lovely. They play games. They watched the Super Bowl. They go outside for walks.

My mom loves her new home. She has a large sunny room in which she has plenty of room to safely maneuver around her furniture. The home has more of a family atmosphere with an extremely loving staff. She tells me how much she loves them. The staff takes time to read to her, to walk with her, to talk to her, to laugh with her, to write letters and cards for her. The residence in the home have tea and games time. The staff also helps her exercise. The living room is comfortable, the dining room is roomy and sunny, the bathroom and walk-in closet is large and easy to maneuver. She loves the food.

My 101 year-old Grandma G couldn’t be happier! Sunny Side Living offers the perfect combination of close, personal care and attention with freedom and independence. Grandma lives a full life, welcoming friends and family who visit and embracing daily adventures whether going to church, meeting friends for tea, or playing dominoes. And the food is delicious! At Sunny Side, Grandma lives well, loves and is loved, and as she says, “In our home, everybody belongs to everybody.”
