4.3 · 15 reviewsFrom the first contact I made with Sunshine Gardens I've been impressed with the professionalism and compassion the Administration and Staff have shown me. The decision I had to make regarding the welfare of my mother was very difficult, but with their help as well as valued recommendations from friends and folks in the medical field, I'm confident my mother is getting the care she needs at Sunshine Gardens. Everyone I've met and everyone I've seen interact with the residents have been loving, attentive and compassionate. I highly recommend Sunshine Gardens.
After much debate within the family, we made the difficult decision of placing mother in a memory care facility. We chose Sunshine Gardens after reading reviews and talking with the Administrator and Staff. Mother was there for a year and a half before her passing. My family and I were extremely please with the care and attention that our mother received during her time with them. The Staff was amazing and we knew mother was being well cared-for. The facility was always clean, and so was mom. Everyone was friendly and patient, and we knew mom was happy there. We could not have asked for…

After much debate within the family, we made the difficult decision of placing mother in a memory care facility. We chose Sunshine Gardens after reading reviews and talking with the Administrator and Staff. Mother was there for a year and a half before her passing. My family and I were extremely please with the care and attention that our mother received during her time with them. The Staff was amazing and we knew mother was being well cared-for. The facility was always clean, and so was mom. Everyone was friendly and patient, and we knew mom was happy there. We could not have asked for better care for our mother during the most difficult time in all of our lives.
This facility has been the best thing we could have done for my mom. It is a small, family run organization. The care providers are wonderful, always so patient and smiling. My mom adores them all. I can't imagine how anyone could negatively review a place they never set foot in. There are so many bad, questionable places for the elderly. This one is top notch.

There management is pour, very rude staff, a employee was very rude towards me I called and left a message about her I believe her name was Carolyn if I remember right very snobby. I just called to ask a quick question and was very disrespectful towards me over the phone. I’ll never bring my family member there knowing there is a rude employee If she can be that rude towards me over the phone who knows how she will be towards the residence.
The everyday engagement is awesome. I have never stepped into a place that feels so loving.
Always greeted with smiling faces! Excellent staff and administration!!
