I have chosen Sunrise of Cresskill for my mother and it was excellent. The rooms are adequate size, you bring your own furniture, and they have a plethora of activities. She seems happy with the food. The average tenure of the staff was the thing I liked most, they are very kind, and they have a very low turnover.

Sunrise of Cresskill was beautiful and almost like a park setting. The front part of it was regular apartments, and they also have a nursing home and assisted living. I looked at the independent living for my father, and the apartments were very lovely. They had a beautiful dining room community area, and their services were very nice. They took me on a nice tour, they were very nice, and they followed up with me. It was a very lovely setting; it was a very nice place to live. It was a full apartment and was much newer with a big living room, a big bathroom and bedroom, and a full kitchen.

We were looking at 1-bedroom units at Sunrise of Cresskill; they were large. I thought my brother and his wife would be happy there, but the location was just too far. They have an exercise room, a spa, a music room, and a place where movies are shown. The dining area seemed bright, and that was important. I tried to speak to anyone who came my way, and the people that I spoke with seemed OK.

I am/was a resident of this facility
I lived in Sunrise of Cresskill for a year. It was horrible; there was nothing I liked about it. The food was disgusting. It was not run correctly, and management was nonexistent. There were very few people on the staff that went above and beyond, but the people that gave me my medication were exceptional. I shared a room with a woman and had several problems with her because she was much older than me. It was a terrible experience. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Sunrise of Cresskill is very modern. It is clean and welcoming. My mom hasn’t moved in yet, but this is one that we felt would be best for her. The dining area is nice and very welcoming. The rooms are of very good size, clean and well-maintained. There are many activities. I didn’t really get to see a full program, but they seemed very good and appropriate. They have a huge calendar set up so that the residents know exactly what’s coming.

Sunrise of Cresskill was fine in all aspects. The only negative was that they do not take Medicaid, and they were very expensive, but everything was beautiful. They had doctors on call.

We visited Sunrise of Cresskill for my father. It was a mansion setting, but I didn't get a good feel from their management. They did have activities. However, when they talked to me, the first word that came out of their mouth is how much money we got. They should be asking about the patient and not how much money we got.

We had been to Sunrise of Cresskill. We saw the lovely apartment. There was only one problem. It was only one bathroom and I required at least a half bathroom more. So, it would be bath and a half.
It was a combination of independent and assisted and the other half of it was I guess Alzheimer's place. It was well kept. It had a very lovely dining hall. They had a lot of different things and activities that they provided for the seniors. There was an art class when we were there. The apartments were very nice. If it weren't for the fact that it was a one bathroom, I would have probably gone with it. The parking was accessible and not far from your apartment. It was very nice. I would recommend it to others. I would go there myself. I put my name on the list for a 2-bedroom because it has two bathrooms.

My mother has lived at Sunrise Cresskill for almost 4 years. The facility is homey, clean and attractive and she receives loving and capable care. Staff is very friendly and kind. Doctors who come in are professional and caring. Their quarterly family nights are nice events where families of residents are invited to share refreshments and socialize. Down sides: mom is not crazy about the food, and though she is not one to take advantage of many activities, those offered seem a little lame and redundant to me (don't let the promotional materials fool you.) I feel they could do a much better job in facilitating interaction and friendship among the residents. As with any facility like this, hired staff is no substitute for the attention and care of family members, so you need to be in seeing things for yourself and communicating about your loved one's care needs.. For an active senior it would probably be a little boring, but overall the residents here seem satisfied and well cared for.

We think this facility is very pleasant and it seemed like a community and not just any nice and fancy apartment for older people, but actually a community.
I like the size of the apartment and the feeling that it was more like an "apartment" rather than a senior living community and it's nice living condition. It's nicely appointed, nice hallways and materials and all smelled good. The way it would have been in any nice home, but at the same time a dining room that was appealing. You can congregate all of the people and feel you are part of a group,part of a community. The laundry service picks up the laundry at the door of your apartment and takes care of it for you. My father is used to kind of pretty fancy condo in Florida and then the country club, so it has to be something that he would feel like it has more of what he's had. This is why we chose this community and i would recommend this to others as well.

I felt like the place here was similar to college dorms. Grandparents would live in a single room for privacy and everyone would meet up at the living room and etc. IT was warm environment, however as a typical nursing homes, everything was relaxed and boring. Some volunteers and workers tried to make it fun and interesting but they just end up taking care of the people in needs. Anyway it is a good place to spend time. Good to see granparents making friends

This nursing facility has been personally seen by me. I have found it neat and clean, with life at its best. Residents are living with high esteem and honor. Quality of life being offered by the organizers is of a high standard. Activities have been thoroughly planned to offer all residents an opportunity to generate a healthy spirit and an atmosphere of love and care. Staff employed on duty has always been forthcoming to look after the needs of residents and providing them every facility they desire. Persons are treated as family members and they really enjoy the relationship of trust. I have talked to the residents who all very extremely happy. They shared their thoughts and experience of living here and were satisfied. Diet schedule is very balanced and nutritious. Additionally, the patients have been extended an opportunity to follow the diet program as prescribed by the physician or nutritionist. Overall, I would rate this facility very high and recommend it.

My mother was a resident at Sunrise of Cresskill for the last 6 months of her life. Sunrise is a beautiful facility with well-kept, clean public areas and an attentive and compassionate staff. Laundry service and meals are provided. There are many activities available to residents, including various physical fitness activities, games, movies and state-of-the-art memory improvement equipment. I never once saw or heard of a staff member being harsh or impatient with a resident and there were no instances of theft during my mother's time there. I would not hesitate to recommend Sunrise of Cresskill to anyone in Bergen County looking for an assisted living facility for themselves or an elderly relative.

I visited the Sunrise of Cresskill this summer to determine whether or not it would be a good place to put my grandmother in the future. I was very impressed with the amenities at this location in addition to the architecture of the building. As soon as you pull up, there are pillars which look like an exquisite building, which is where my grandmother would call home. The staff was very friendly and accommodating to the residents of the home as I was able to see them in action. I also was able to see the meals that were served on a typical day at the home. I was told that the laundry is done on a timely basis and there were many activities which I saw the inhabitants participating in during the day. I also liked the landscaping of the assistant living facility and thought it was a very comfortable place for my grandmother to live.
