Sunrise of Wayne was a very nice facility and probably the newer and updated version of all the buildings I was in, but it didn't have independent living, which was what we were looking for for my mom. The units were very nice, but they didn't have full kitchens. They did have mini fridges and small microwaves. They had all the amenities that you would want. All three meals were cooked for them. It was a really nice building and it looked like it had been updated. The staff was very nice. I met a lot of people. As we were walking around, we met a lot of the staff, and they were very nice people. The grounds were beautiful. It was probably one of the nicest buildings that I saw. It was not just a plain square box. It was very architecturally pleasing.

My mother has moved into Sunrise of Wayne. After speaking to a few places, the director of sales didn't make it like a sale. When she spoke, it was about the concerns about my mom. She wasn't offering me if you move in by this time, you get this or you better make it quick. Everything was strictly about the benefit for my mom. Everyone was extremely friendly and caring. She doesn't need a lot of care. She does her own meds. The only thing is she gets her three meals and they do the cleaning. There are quite a few activities, and they constantly go to my mom's door and invite her, but as of right now, she's not ready to participate. However, she does go to lunch and dinner with everyone else. My mom is pretty fussy and she enjoys the food. Her apartment is adorable. When you walk in, it's a very small kitchenette. She has a bedroom and a living room, both small, but it's not like she's confined to a bedroom-type room all day long. They offer physical therapy. They have games, arts and crafts, TV rooms, and a library. Everybody is very, very nice.

We just had a great feeling when we walked into Sunrise of Wayne. Everybody was warm and welcoming. The staff had great interaction with the residents. They were very informative, friendly, and welcoming. Mom hasn't moved in yet, but the menus looked wonderful. The different levels of care seemed like they will be very efficient. The studio apartment itself was beautiful. The whole facility seems well maintained, that includes the building and the grounds.

My parents are residents of Sunrise of Wayne. It's very welcoming and warm. It's what made me choose them. The people there are extremely accommodating. The care has been really good. My parents present lots of challenges and the hardest thing I've had is sometimes getting a callback and that's just because they're caring for people. But everyone calls me back, just not right away, and they call when they're not in a meeting or helping someone else. It's not an easy time but they have been wonderful. They don't have as many amenities as some other locations. When I visited other places, the amenities were empty, there was no one using them. At sunrise, there are active people using the different amenities. Both my parents have tried yoga, which they enjoyed. They also have arts and crafts. There are also cats in the facility, and it sounds ridiculous, but it brings joy to my mom. There are discussion groups, social time, games, and movies. There are plenty of activities that are appropriate for my parents' abilities. The staff has been very professional, very warm, very welcoming, and willing to work with our specific needs. If I had to rate them on a 1 to 5 scale, I would give them a six. They've been really helpful and wonderful from the desk staff to the nurses, to everyone.

Sunrise of Wayne was a very nice and clean place. Everything was very well kept, but the residents' rooms were half the size compared to the other ones I'd seen. The staff who assisted me with the tour was well-informed and was able to answer my questions. I saw that they provided physical therapy for the residents. They also seemed to have a lot of staff.

Sunrise of Wayne was lovely. That place was smaller, nicer, and more home-like. They don't take Medicaid though. Still, I liked the place. The tour we had was good. The rooms were nice. We were going through the memory care part and that looked nice. One of the women who was there visiting said they're very, very good and they treat you well there. The staff was very nice, too. They had a beauty salon and nice common spaces. They're built like Victorian homes with Victorian porches all around. It's just beautiful. They're very, very lovely.

Sunrise of Wayne looked nice. I was a little bit impressed. The room we saw looked very good, very nice, and large. It had a nice bathroom and almost a kitchen there. It had a microwave and a small refrigerator, a sink where you can wash the dishes, and closet space. The staff members were very nice, trying to help me as best they could. I saw some residents there. They had a lot of amenities. They showed me a sheet of paper. They had book reading, bingo, games, and TV watching. They had quite a bit of stuff there.

The facility is clean and bright, and the staff is kind and attentive. The billing is not transparent though. Bills are not itemized, and the facility jumps at any opportunity to bump up the level of care (i.e., cost). When you try to dispute that increase in care, the staff is not willing to listen. Rather than encourage more resident independence, they seem intent on keeping them at that higher level of care. Whether that's because it makes their job easier to keep everything static or if it's because they can charge more, I don't know, but it's like dealing with a wall trying to get them to discuss options. The abilities of the residents are also quite low. We were hoping to see more higher functioning residents.

Provider Response

Resident care is always a priority at Sunrise at of Wayne. It’s disappointing whenever we learn that a family member or resident did not enjoy their experience at Sunrise. One dissatisfied member of our community is one too many. Please contact us so that we can learn more. Thank you.

I liked Sunrise of Wayne. It was a very nice place. The rooms were very nice. It was very clean. The people were all very friendly, even the residents I found to be friendly. One problem was they don't accept Medicaid. After my sister spent down her money, I don't know where she would have gone then. That was one of the reasons I didn't go there. The atmosphere was wonderful. The rooms had a little kitchenettes. They were not real big, but they served the purpose that you need. They had a lot of activities. They also offered weekly trips to the store or something like that. They had transportation. The menu was very diverse. They had a lot of different items on it that you could pick from. It was a beautiful facility. It was older, but it was very well kept and nicely decorated.

Sunrise of Wayne was excellent; it just costs a lot of money. If you could afford it, it's far superior than the other places I've been to. The upkeep was fantastic. They had ample outside spaces with picnic tables and places to sit. Their rooms were like hotel rooms. They're beautiful. They have poker, puzzles, karaoke, and other activities. My friend's mother is there, and she said the food was excellent.

I visited the assisted living and the memory care areas of Sunrise of Wayne. It was a very nice place. It was a smaller place. The staff was very nice and very informative. The overall condition of the place was nice. It was a very nice place. It was very clean. We walked around the place to this seating area outside, which looked really nice. They have a garden area. We looked at some rooms, and they looked nice. Residents were playing Monopoly.

My mother is in Sunrise of Wayne. I like the ratio of staff to residents. It's a good ratio. There's no one sitting in the hallways. The residents are not left out in some common area. There are certain activities throughout; otherwise, they're in their rooms. The staff members do a good job of getting to know Mom's needs, and they're attentive. They're very good with their food. The biggest issue we've had, and I think it's a statewide thing, is the visitation with coronavirus has been too strict, but everything's good. They have a hair salon and a courtyard.

My dad is at Sunrise of Wayne. We're happy with it, most of the people are caring and helpful, and they addressed some issues we had. When you walk in, the secretary was very nice, and everyone I met was extremely caring. It's a caring community, it's a clean place, and the food is good. I would like to see more Parkinson's/veterans affairs there.

Sunrise of Wayne, a Victorian style facility, is beautiful both inside and out. The plants, flowers and landscaping are meticulous. Inside is decorated in the same theme and is bright and cheerful. The wrap around porch outside has rocking chairs and flowers and is a beautiful space to sit, rock and relax. The dining room and seating areas are designed for comfort and conversation. The staff is friendly and helpful and always make you feel you are their first priority. The resident rooms are equipped with all the necessities and designed for comfort and convenience. The staff ensure the resident is on time for meals and activities and always encourages their participation. There are activities for everyone, no matter what their interests are. I know we picked the best facility and am grateful to have found it.

Sunrise of Wayne is a nice place, and they're taking good care of my father. It's very friendly, clean, and has easy access. Sometimes the parking is a bit full, but usually it's not too much of a problem. The layout of the room is OK. It's not as big as a motel room, but it's adequate for my father and good. The staff is very nice, always very pleasant to deal with, and very helpful. People watch TV, play games, and sometimes eat together in the more common areas. The food is OK. My dad gets a choice of what he wants to eat and seems to like it. They bring the food to him three times a day, and he's happy with that. The reason we chose the place is it's nice enough and it was very close to where I live. My dad moved in March.

What a blessing Sunrise of Wayne has been for our family. My uncle has been there one year today and just turned 100 years young. He still enjoys his own apartment but has the help of many to encourage and care for him daily. From the moment you enter Sunrise, you sense you are among "family" and with a smile and warm greeting, you are welcomed by name. I call Sunrise the "Cadillac" of Senior Living and am thankful that my uncle lives there! I give thanks we can give my uncle the very best for he has always given each of us his best! Stop in, I'm sure you will agree!

My son will be moving on Monday to Sunrise. I chose it because there is a number of other men there of same age as my son, and they do have a lot of activities. He has a private room, and I think it is about the same as what he has right now. They say he will always have a plenty of food because where he is right now, he has been denied food. The staff seems to be fine. Another thing is that they take them out to church every Sunday if they like to go, and that is something that is very important to him.

I chose Sunrise of Wayne for my mom because it was close to me, the people were very nice, and the facility was very nice. My mother is always nicely dressed and clean, her apartment is always neat and clean, and she seems happy. Whenever I visit, she is almost never in her apartment. She is always doing things with other people. They call me if I need to know of any medical issue; they keep me informed, so I am very happy with it. It has a very homelike feeling, and I feel very comfortable with her being there. I feel like she is very well taken care of.

I also liked Sunrise of Wayne very much. They separate the people who were not necessarily Alzheimer's but sort of have certain needs, and they try to protect the more normal people in different sections. I think you didn't have to go to the dining room and see people who really were slobbering all over the place. That was the most expensive of the three facilities I've visited. It was a place where people in rather good shape could retire. You can get one-bedroom, two-bedroom, or a suite, but you don't have to buy the unit. You will just be dealing with a monthly fee.

Sunrise of Wayne was clean, immaculate, and very stunning. The people were extremely friendly and informative. We asked a lot of questions, and they answered. I was interested in the studio apartment, and we got the pricing to see if I could afford it. I went inside one of the studios, and it was furnished. It was like a room and a half with a bed on one side. There were chairs, television, computer, refrigerator. I thought it was previously owned by a lady. They had a list of activities all day, happy hour on some days. They served three meals a day, and they were not so strict with the time. Even if breakfast was served at 8 a.m and the residents came down later than that, they still served them. They seemed cooperative, and I understand that once you signed up, they have a team assigned to your area. The team made the bed every morning for you, took the trash out, etc. They catered to the people, depending on your personality and not how they wanted things done. I would probably go there if I'm ready to.

The staff was wonderful at Sunrise of Wayne. The parking lot and the sidewalk were not cleaned up at all. I had a hard time getting in the building because of the snow and the ice. When I went inside, there seemed to be a major leak. There were big buckets everywhere in the area. It seemed to be not the right day for the visit, but everybody seemed to be very nice. The place was great and beautiful inside. Their rooms seemed nice. I was not able to eat there, but their dining area seemed very nice and clean. They had a nice variety of things to do. A lot of them had to do with cooking, as far as I can remember.

But the staff was really friendly, and everything else was good. I didn’t see as many residents. I saw some in a room in a class or something. They have a library, a recreation room, and a common center.

Sunrise is like a Victorian home mansion with a lot of apartments inside and it's only got two floors. My grandma has a beautiful apartment. It's cool, it's a nice place. They have all kinds of good services for them. They take the garbage out and they clean. When they eat, it's like a restaurant style. I know she plays bingo. She gets her hair done at the beauty salon like once or twice a week. She plays keno and they take them places like Christmas tree shops, to shopping centers in Wayne. I know she gets her medicines and everything taken there. I really think they do such a good job. They even have a family fun day once or twice a month and I went to the one for Halloween. We got dressed up when we went there and then they had something else for New Year's and they had belly dancers. That was super cool. I didn't think I was going to like it but it was different.

I knew of Sunrise Assisted Living because a client of mine has his mom at their other site. This one's in Wayne, NJ. It's a lovely facility, brand new and I was looking for the least expensive room. The staff are really, really nice and they still call me from time to time to let me know when they have an inexpensive room available. The place is absolutely beautiful; they have activities like arts and crafts. They set it up the place it's like a hotel. It's really, really nice.
