Sunrise of Frisco

My mother is at Sunrise of Frisco. As far as I can see from the time I have visited her, it has been clean and it is kept up very well. My mother has her own apartment in the dementia care wing. There had been occasions when I had visited that it wasn't the best; it was not very colorful. However, my mother is basically getting out more. I didn't find her at her apartment when I called. She is doing more things with the other people in the community because she had been just kind of staying in her room and locking the door. Staff can get in and help her with bathing and with meds and stuff, but she really didn't want to go out unless a family was taking her out. So that's a positive change. My mother goes on walks. She is doing more with the group activities that are on the dementia unit. In terms of meals, they have to put portion restrictions on for her because she was kind of eating whatever they offered her to eat and she didn't know when to stop. Most of the folks are trying to get to eat and she doesn't have that problem. However, we had some issues with my mom's behavior sometimes that I don't know if they know how to address. And they need to limit who they have there that they can manage. The facility is very big. It is comfortable and it is homey, but it is very large, and its cost is what my brother and I are having concerns about.

Sunrise of Frisco was really good. They were very thorough. It's a nice community, well laid out, and it looked like they had a good program and a good ratio of caregivers to patients. Pricing was a little high for what we were going to be able to afford. They had group activities there in the facility: social groups, games, opportunities for people to mingle. They had van or bus service to take people outside the facility as needed.

I had a visit at Sunrise of Frisco, and it was small but very nice. They had assisted living and memory care within the same complex, and that is primarily what we are looking for. Even though the facility is small, they do have different kinds of activities. They only have 30 people, and so the staff are very hands-on.

My mother was there for over a year and the downstairs assisted living ok but the memory care unit lacks in quality of care. After several meetings with the care manger and director nothing that I requested and we agreed to try was ever implemented. They have a lot of young staff that can't relate to elders and no real activites for memory care.

Sunrise Senior Living is an excellent facility. My mother has severe dementia. The first floor is assisted living, the second floor is the memory care floor. The staff and care managers are the most compassionate, understanding and friendliest group of people you will ever find. Management expects a high standard of care from its employees. They do not tolerate anything less. Their residents come from all walks of life -- from the most successful to the modest of families. Everyone is treated with the utmost respect. I highly, highly, highly recommend this facility. The facility is very cozy and warm. They have the most fabulous outdoor patio that is decorated beautifully. I will definitely consider this place when I need assisted living.

Sunrise in Frisco, Texas has 2 levels of care, Assisted living and a Memory Care Neighborhood. My mother lives in the Assisted living Neighborhood with memory support and my father lives in the Memory Care Neighborhood. The staff at Sunrise is superior! They go above and beyond to truly get to know their residents and the families of their residents. They have drawn both of my parents in to the activities of the community despite their resistance and both have found a comfort and love amongst the staff and other residents there. They have worked with my father's physical outbursts and supported us as we have sought solutions to his behavior. Overall appearance of the facility is excellent. Food and cleanliness of individual rooms are above average. Activities are plentiful, interesting, and engaging. But above all, staff are amazing!

My wife has only been at Sunrise for a few days. The caretakers are extremely caring of her. She was traumatized before, so she's very leary about anybody being around her. But she's much better where she is now. They have scheduled activities about every 40 minutes. While she doesn't always participate, they take her in and she likes to be with people in a social environment. So far she's been doing well there and they seem to be doing a very good job. The food looked good and she has no trouble eating it.

Sunrise Senior Living was larger than the other places I visited. It was huge, sunny and offered everything you would possibly want. The residents had a function where they came and talked to the people. I liked that you could start in residential and move to assisted living if things changed.

The Sunrise of Frisco assisted living facility looked really well-kept from the outside as we drove up. My brother's friend has lived in the region for quite a while and would like to stay in touch with friends and family. We especially liked the park-like atmosphere of the grounds. The main foyer had a lovely receiving area, reminiscent of a quaint country home. It was hard to imagine that this was an assisted living facility. The communal areas all had interesting activities occurring, from reading to games and resident interactions. It was clear that the residents enjoy living here. The living suites were all a nice size and did not seem cramped. They were also beautifully decorated. We could see that our uncle would be comfortable in any one of them. Each unit had individually controlled temperatures. The kitchens all had ample counter space and appliances. The patio areas also had barbeques where they have hosted and private parties. The dining areas have many options. From more intimate to communal dining, resident can choose whatever they like in addition to hosting guests in their own spaces. The food choices looked nutritious and delicious, as well as the regular snacks offered continually. Events and outings scheduled include anything you can imagine from restaurants, to art museums, the library, to local films and crafts, fine dining and theater. They also host monthly birthday parties for residents at the facility which they encourage friends and family to attend. In all, this is a lovely facility with caring and attentive staff. All of the residents needs appear to be met easily and efficiently, in a caring way.
