My…read moregrandma is a resident here and my family and I, could not have found a better home for her. With all the events in our current world and with the shut down of the community it has been especially hard on my family, myself, and my grandma. The media put our family in fear that at any moment we could get a phone call that there was an outbreak. There NEVER WAS an outbreak! The staff worked through these amazing times with great dedication and strength to continue to keep everyone safe and healthy. Not seeing or being able to hug my grandma has been difficult but the staff has been great keeping in touch with us, through FaceTime and constant contact when either one of us needed it. They have been amazing keeping her spirits up through the last few months. They truly are heroes!

I spent 13 hrs. in the ER waiting to be seen by the doctor. I was having chest pains and shortness…read moreof breath. I was evaluated pretty quickly. It included blood pressure, EKG, blood work, urinalysis, etc. This ruled out a life-threatening emergency . I was reevaluated every few hrs or so. At that point, I could have left since a heart attack was ruled out, or I'm sure I would have received immediate care. A triage nurse has extra training in emergency evaluations. I was seen by the doctor after 14 hrs. of waiting and then admitted for two days. This is just my opinion. I think a lot of the people in the ER could have gone to an urgent care or waited to see their doctor the next day. Some people did leave. I guess they decided they weren't that sick. The wait time is ridiculous, but what can the hospital and staff do when people keep coming in. There are also ambulances coming in as well. The staff did their best to make people as comfortable as possible. In my opinion the staff work very hard to take care of the patients. I don't know what the solution is, but I do know it's people much higher up that need to fix the problem . It's sure not the staff.

My family decided that my Dad required hospice care towards the end of his life and we chose…read moreLifeChoice for that need. We were assigned Emily as our case manager and she was great to work with. However, we interacted the most with Grace who was on-call at the time we engaged them and helped my Dad a good bit during his last couple of days. Grace was super patient with us when we asked lots of questions about his care and hospice in general. LifeChoice also provided a rabbi for us and I think my father really appreciated that the rabbi visited with him for over an hour. I think they provided my father a lot of peace and comfort during his final days. My only regret was not engaging them sooner. Thank you LifeChoice for all of the help you provided my father and our family.

Their whole demeanor and attitude is that of angels, compassion, empathy, love..When he was in the hospital, he was not receiving the proper pain management, they kept delaying the hospitals hospice program while my dad was dying in pain. I was desperate to get him home. Alena, the administrator, moved mountains to make that happen. They got my dad home in less than 18 hours, they were by my father's bedside within two hours of me calling desperate for help, which felt like a miracle during such a difficult time. Daniel, the nurse who came to the hospital, was so attentive and caring such a such a genuine person. And once we were home, nurse Julie and nurse Grace took over and truly went above and beyond. They made sure the bed oxygen tanks supplies and meds was delivered before my dad even got home.They made sure my dad was comfortable, out of pain, and surrounded by dignity and respect--something he was not receiving in the hospital. there was also a Sweet CNA that came to help as well, Because of them, my dad was able to pass peacefully at home, just as he deserved. That means everything to me my father and our family. All of my father's friends and loyal family were able to come visit with him before he passed the next morning.. I highly recommend this hospice agency to anyone going through end-of-life care for a loved one--or even for themselves. Don't wait until the last minute. Have this hospice team set up ahead of time--you will not regret it. They are truly angels doing God's work. Shannon Johnson-parson

She would always ask when she could have her own room. I continually told her when she gets stronger she could have her room. ( they actually have a waiting list ). After 100 days of physical therapy a room just so happened to come available. She was over joyed with her new room and her pictures on her walls. She loved showing them to anyone that would come to her room. One of her doctors said at one time she is a very complex patient. You name it and she had it. After many years of in and out of the hospital, she called Sunny Hill her home. She got sick and had the flu and pneumonia. It was just too much for her and she passed away. Sunny Hill and all of their staff and terrific. From management to cna to nurses. All were great. I would strongly recommend Sunny Hill. It's a Hidden gem. Really check it out if you have a loved one that is needing extra care. Thank you Sunny Hill for everything you have done for my mom.

Facility design could be more senior friendly: common area seating is too low for people with mobility issues; hallways are long and dark. Maintenance guys are fantastic--prompt, patient, helpful. Administration is scattershot. Got multiple different packages of papers to sign prior to move in despite also having three face to face meetings with managers. Would have been helpful to see a checklist and timeline leading up to move in. Also would have been helpful if someone greeted resident on day one and went over his meal times, housekeeping, laundry, and bathing schedule And provided a print out of this information. Difficult to get accurate information related to health care staffing. No one seemed to know for sure the days staff nurse or geriatric doctor are onsite. No one seemed to know how the facility lending library operated in conjunction with Shorewood library.

Maintenance, activities ,CNA's, and the receptionists at the front desk were all very good. However, I am only giving the Timbers a one star rating because when she moved out they kept $1,000 of her security deposit. The only explanation given-Damages: replace carpet. After numerous attempts to speak to someone in charge with no one calling back, I gave up. I don't think it is right that someone on a fixed income should have to replace carpeting that just needed shampooing. Isn't there normal wear and tear after 2 1/2 years? The residents should not be responsible for decorating after they move out.
