Sunny Hills ALF of Sebring

My friend settled at Sunny Hills. The facility was well-kept. There was a patio where she watched the surroundings. The staff gave adequate care to her. The people seemed like a big family. There was bingo and other activities. Someone also came and played music. I saw the menu and it looked good. She said the food was delicious.

I love sunny hills. Its clean and definitely stylish. The lobby area is brightly lit. There are chairs fir residents to lounge around. The dining hall has assigned seating and is set up like a restaurant. There are servers who deliver trays to residents. Lunch is the heavier meal of the day. This particular day they served soup, chicken with veggies and mashed potatoes, bowl of salad, and peach cobbler with dollop of whip cream. Lol, I don't many people who could eat all that. The best part is the guy who goes from table to table with the beverage Cart. He has everyones order down. He had apple juice, cranberry juice, coffee, milk, water, and orange juice. A big difference than the simple five item meal with a mini cup of juice that is usually served at other nursing facilities. One lady who worked there knew exactly where and who every resident was. I told her that's amazing, she claimed it was because she worked here so long. Still to take the initiative to know everyone and be able to direct staff or family where a resident is, is very professional. The halls all have themes. One theme is like old Hollywood, so the pics on the wall are black and white and of older actors and actresses. The front hall has nature paintings and different objects of decor on the rooms. You will also find several fullength windows in the halls. Its great because it let's in a lot of light and gives resident something to look at even if it is the Parking lot. The facility is located in a residential community, which is good for traffic purposes. There is a nurse station and she passes the meds. O yeah I found the vertical chalkboard to be so cute for the menu outside the dining hall. Reminds me of those restaurants on the beach with their menus advertised on the streets for all to see. I enjoy visiting this facility. The rooms are ridculously huge. Bathrooms are shared if there is a roommate. Shower is inside room. Fridge and TV and recliners are also used. Mind you some rooms may vary, but this was my experience. Closets are designed like regular home closets. There large metal accordion doors. Dressers are inside the closet with light shelving available. The facility does have an alzheimers unit which is like a lock down area. The door has to be buzzed open. At night the doors are locked from outside and inside. This deters residents from entering other rooms at night. There is a nurse station in the area and the staff does make rounds. Residents are always accounted for. The precautions are to prevent wandering/escaping. With other residents they carry a key for there rooms with them.
