Sunflower Springs at Trinity

Karen

We toured Sunflower Springs at Trinity. We have chosen it for mom because it was newer in construction and her room was pretty spacious. She had a nice back porch, too. But the main selling point, I would say, would be the bathroom, because she is having trouble with getting around and needs the extra help, and their handicapped bathroom was top-notch. There are handlebars everywhere and she didn't have to step over anything to get into her shower. It's very, very accessible and we appreciated that. The shelving was also definitely made for a handicapped person. She's recovering from hip surgery, although she's pretty independent, so she appreciated this. We were standing in line in the lobby, and the guy was showing us around and telling us about the food, and a resident there came up and said that the food was great here. They asked us if we had any food allergies, too. They're pretty up there. There were several criteria that we were looking for. The activities were good, and the physical therapy that they offered was awesome as well. The only thing that I would say about this particular facility is that it's big and there is a distance to travel to get to your activity center or your dining center, at least for mom. But they do offer an escort service. They were very good about working with our finances. They wanted an upfront fee, but because she was going to be there for three months, they said they can adjust the price. When they found out what type of help she needed and how it could be adjusted as she needs it, they said that's minimal care, and so they were very good about working around that as well. I would say, cost-wise it was probably a five on that. Cleanliness was a five. I didn't see anything that would make me feel bad about that other than the distances she had to travel the hallways. Although, she has the escort service. If it was closer together, that would be good. The guy who took us around was very friendly and everybody was friendly. But I had a couple of the other places that were more well established, and you could tell when somebody worked together for a long time, and the camaraderie is there. They talk and tease each other, and it's more of a friendly atmosphere type of thing. They don't have quite that ability yet. They're new, so they're working with new people.

We went to Sunflower Springs. I liked the newness and the cleanliness. I liked the fact that the staff and everybody seemed to like everybody, including the residents. I didn't like the fact that they had no pool or stove. The rest of it was nice, but it was on the high end of very expensive. The tour was great. They have a theater, and they have an ice cream parlor. They have arts and crafts.

Sunflower Springs at Trinity was beautiful. It was a very nice place. I don't have any negative about it. The staff was courteous and thorough. The apartments were a little smaller than some others, but they were adequate. They have a gym, salon, and library.

My father is going to be moving to Sunflower Springs at Trinity in 2 weeks. I toured the place and saw the assisted living. It's a fairly new community and only about a year and a half old. Everything was clean and new. I liked the 1-bedroom apartment that my dad is going to be living in. I also liked their activities. I just got a very good vibe about the overall place, the cleanliness, and the concern of the staff. You get your 3 meals a day and all the activities. They have a van for its residents too and I know they take them out to some of the local stores to do shopping as well as outings.

Sunflower Springs at Trinity was beautiful, and I loved it, but it was a little farther away. The staff was really good, very nice, and very helpful. The rooms were beautiful, it was new, and very nice. They were large rooms, the views were nice, it was a nice place to live. The dining area was pretty, very nice, very clean, and well decorated.

I visited Sunflower Springs at Trinity, and I was looking for Memory care. I would say that the person that that decorated the place completely turned me off. Everything was gray. The furniture was new, except it was all with the modern style and sharp angles. Their decoration was new, but it was uninviting. Their rooms were very small. The place reminded me of being in a cold hospital. Although they had beautiful photographs on the wall and wonderful photography, it was that darn gray that I didn't like.

Sunflower Springs at Trinity was fine. I like their setup because I didn't want a big change from my mom's living style. I wanted it to be close to what she had. She's going to move into more of a condo-living type of situation, where she has a nice little porch that she can sit down on. They also have round-the-clock care, and just everything that I was looking for. The staff was very helpful and very cordial, too. It's a brand-new facility, and it's extremely clean. They have many activities there for the residents to participate in. They have a little library they can go to, a little bar, a living room, a dining-room area, a little general store, a salon, and a little ice-cream parlor. It's just all very well done.

I went to Sunflower Springs at Trinity and I saw all of the common rooms and some of the apartments, so basically I saw everything. I had a wonderful experience. They were very warm, welcoming, and friendly. The place was beautiful because it's brand new. I saw the whole layout, the dining room, everything like that. It was a very pretty room, and it had tables and chairs. The staff was very friendly. It's brand new, and it's perfect.
