It's clean, the rooms are nice, the food it top notch, and all the caregivers are kind, well trained and on their game. As a family, we haven't been as happy with the place mom ultimately has chosen to stay, alas. But if mom ever wanted to move, we'd put a deposit in at Clearwater and without hesitation move her. There is SO much going on there from outings, to exercise classes, movies, church (If that's your thing,) a pizza oven and beautiful gardens. It's a great place---it's very SPENDY, but you get what you pay for.

They tended to my needs as far as needed paperwork for the insurance etc. They needed $5000 upfront to get him in and I was told that if he only lasted a couple weeks I'd get some money back. That didn't happen. This is the only negative thing I have to say. The girls that work there were always there. They took occasional naps in the Room when everyone was also napping. They entertain the patients with TV or games. There is a piano and occasionally someone volunteered to play. That part was amazing! Dad looked forward to that before he became unresponsive.

Sunrise of Orange is A Five Star for me. A Community That Truly Cares…read more Sunrise of Orange is honestly one of the best Assisted Living and Memory Care communities I've had the opportunity to know and be part of. What gives me confidence in Sunrise is the exceptional care they provide to their residents, with a full team available around the clock, 24/7. You can really see that their goal is not only to provide care, but to champion the life of every senior and help them continue to live with dignity, purpose, and joy. It starts with the leadership. Benito, the Executive Director, is truly exceptional. He is always on top of everything and is very involved with what is happening in the community. You can see his commitment to making sure the residents, families, and staff are all taken care of. I also want to give a special shoutout to Eddie Santillan, the Activities Director. Eddie is always making sure the residents are up, active, and involved through different activities, events, and programs. He puts so much heart into what he does. He really works from the heart, and you can see how much he enjoys bringing happiness and engagement to the residents. He helps make everyday life at Sunrise of Orange more active, fun, and meaningful. And it's not just the leadership or activities team. The nurses, care managers, caregivers, and entire staff have always been very open, welcoming, and accommodating. They work together to support the residents and create an environment where families can feel comfortable and confident about the care their loved ones are receiving. I've had the privilege of being a team member in a different Sunrise Community for four years, and I can honestly say that Sunrise became like my second home. I've worked with and been around different senior living communities throughout the years, and Sunrise will always hold a special place in my heart. There's a lot of heart behind this community, and it shows in the way the residents are cared for every day.

One push of a button and someone from the Care Staff respond in a flash with a smile and asks, "How can I help you?" and then does it immediately with kindness. The place is beautiful, only three years old, it lies above a lake. Indoors, the halls are painted a soft, aqua, and covered with beautiful artwork, both tasteful and varied. I don't know when I've ever had such good food. it is a full restaurant menu, breakfast, lunch, and dinner with 3 different specials for both lunch and dinner. Nothing is over- seasoned and a healthy diet is encouraged. In the Bistro, next to the always helpful and kind Concierge, you'll see fresh herbs being grown in the salad you'll eat that night. The Chef is astonishingly creative. Tonight it was Hoisin Glazed Duck Leg with fresh peas. Everything is cooked individually to order. The choices of desserts are varied and luscious. Tonight, pineapple upside down cake, Another night, vanilla cream pie, ,another chocolate chip cookies still warm from the oven that hang over your finger, soft and yummy. The kitchen is open 24 hours, 7 days a week. Call their number and it will deliver it to your door. Knowing that there's a practice of robbing chefs, I asked why hasn't he been robbed? The answer was,"He loves working here." Why? The kindness. The employees love working here for the same reason.

From the moment I first toured Forever Young, I was beyond impressed--it felt and smelled like a real home and was immaculately clean. William took the time to address all my questions and concerns thoughtfully, both in person and later during a conference call and follow-up tour with my siblings. We knew immediately that Forever Young was the best memory care home for our dad, and we added our name to the waitlist. As dad's disease progressed rapidly, we toured other residential and larger memory care facilities. Each visit only reaffirmed our decision to wait for Forever Young. During this period, William also provided valuable recommendations for equipment to help dad stay safe while he remained at home. Now, eight months into dad's residency at Forever Young our gratitude for William and his caregiving team has only deepened. The caregivers are genuine, kind, compassionate, and loving--truly exceptional. They know dad so well that they can anticipate his needs, which not only ensures outstanding care but also helps reduce his frustrations with his condition. The staff frequently send me pictures of dad participating in activities, which is such a comfort. Meals are carefully prepared to be both nutritious and tailored to the residents' preferences and abilities. Dad has the freedom to come and go and we can visit anytime. Knowing he is in a place where he is genuinely cared for and understood brings us immeasurable peace. There truly is no better place for dad to be.

We were finding extreme challenge with his then current living situation when we came across William and his team at Forever Young. William is a dedicated, compassionate, and committed owner and facilitator - so much so that he answered my initial call at 6:30AM. From that moment forward he proved to be accountable and above all, humble and human. He genuinely listened and was authentic in his position. He has the highest standards for himself and his team. His home was extremely clean and well kept. William was exceptionally resourceful - connecting me with proper professionals in the hospice and MediCal consulting arenas. This was especially important as we had no idea how to proceed with these services. In William's care and experienced advisement, my dad lived as well as anyone could in his situation. His end of life was filled with love and affection. The team was patient and loving to our family's accommodations as we navigated that terribly sensitive time in our lives. William is someone you will immediately bond with and keep a relationship with throughout time. That is how deeply impactful his approach and communication is with his families. I am forever grateful for William in every regard and know that if you choose to be a family in his residence, you too will feel secure and blessed!

The entire purpose of assisted living is to provide dependable assistance and peace of mind to residents and their families, and unfortunately, that has not been our experience. Phone calls frequently go unanswered, emails are often ignored, and most concerning of all, there have been times when she has pressed her assistance button with very long response times. Today, we decided to actually test the response time ourselves. While we were there, we pressed her assistance button and waited to see how long it would take for someone to come help her. We waited 40 minutes and nobody showed up. That experience was extremely concerning. Fourty minutes without any response isn't just poor service--it raises serious questions about resident safety. What if my mother had fallen? What if she was having a medical emergency and was unable to call anyone else? An assistance button provides very little peace of mind if nobody actually responds to it. I would strongly encourage anyone considering this facility for a loved one to ask detailed questions about staffing levels, medication administration, actual response times to assistance buttons, and how emergencies are handled before making a decision.
