Beautiful Community and staff is amazing. Residents are a lot of fun. Great place to move your loved one.

I placed my mother at Sunrise the day after Mother's Day in 2025. It was an imposible decision to move her from her home. I searched for three years across four states. We decided on Sunrise in Atlanta and it has been an exceptional experience! She is on the fourth floor with full time dementia care staff. The staff I believe have been together for almost a decade. A testimony to their love of working at Sunrise in my opinion. Her room is tended to daily and any accidents are immediately addressed. I have never once visited and experienced an unpleasant odor. The staff is loving and skilled and constantly mingling with the clients. Other facilities often stockpile the clients in a hallway and simply leave them there. Sunrise offers daily activities, wonderful meal and snack service, exercise, day trips as well as bring in musicians and mini horses to engage the clients. They have a cat and dog that roam the floor which delights my mother to no end (-: Sunrise is a real home! A home where the staff are loving and attentive to the client and communicative to the family. We could not be happier! Upon checking my mother in, we were met with several department heads (med, PT, skilled nursing etc) to detail the care she would recieve. We discussed habits, likes, dislikes, food etc. I was so impressed and instead of leaving in tears I left with a huge smile on my face. A smile that I maintain to this day!

I rarely write reviews, and this might be the first one I’ve ever written—but I felt I had to because of one exceptional person: CJ. I quietly hid out at Sunrise for over a week, not really speaking to anyone, just observing—and I observed a lot wrong with the place. Overall, I’d rate Sunrise three out of five stars for overpromising and underdelivering. The staff often seem tired and overworked, and on days when CJ wasn’t there, no one came to check on my family member the entire day., nor did they speak. They just did what they had to do and fled. CJ, however, is an absolute gem. Every time she worked, my family member was showered, the room was clean, and she took the time to talk with them—actually having a full conversation instead of making them feel like an inmate in an expensive prison. She treats residents with genuine care and makes them feel seen and valued. CJ’s energy and compassion are unmatched. I saw her going floor to floor, joking with residents, asking them personal questions that showed she really knows them. She speaks excellent English and Arabic, which made connecting with her even easier. When I spoke with residents, everyone mentioned CJ as the one who truly cares. Although I did not meet her, there was also someone called Vernice who the residents said was very caring as well. But out of a staff of roughly thirty people, how is it that residents only talk about two people who genuinely care? As long as CJ is part of Sunrise, it has five-star potential. Without her, it’s a 3 out of 5 at best.
