My husband was a client from October/25 till February 26. He was walking with assistance. His stay at Sunrise was a pure terror. He had unaccounted for injuries ,skin tears, bruises. He had several trips thr hospital. He lost a tremendous amount of weight and other residents claimed he was not fed. When we moved him to another facility we discovered he was given 2x the medication amount he was prescribed at Sunrise. Very poor care ,they were not invested in their clients. Some staff members were inattentive to patients needs. I would not recommend anyone send their family member to Sunrise.
I am sharing our recent experience in case it is helpful to other families considering Sunrise of Raleigh. We registered a complaint with the Department of Health Service Regulation (DHSR) following the accidental death of our Dad while he was a resident of Sunrise of Raleigh, NC at the end of 2025. The most recent DHSR Monitoring Visit from March 6, 2026 resulted in a 2 star rating for the facility with a GS.121D-34 Type A1 violation - the lost severe violation in NC adult care homes. Disappointingly, but perhaps not surprising, A Place for Mom refuses to post this information to help inform decision-making by others.
My client seems happy here. The staff is good Kevin and Devontae are excellent. The residents seemed well kept and looked good. The premises is well secured so the residents are kept safe. The rooms and common areas are clean and nicely decorated. I would recommend this facility.
Community is beautiful and well maintained. Management, sales and other employees are helpful, friendly and will address any needs or concerns you may have regarding your loved one who is a resident. Will, the activity coordinator is amazing with the residences and helps put a smile on faces that sometimes need a little cheering up. Food is just OK at this point. I think they are working on improving it.
We have had a very positive experience at Sunrise during my mother’s stay. The staff are consistently warm and friendly to the residents and family. Gwen, the RN, is wonderful and goes beyond the call of duty to meet the needs of residents. She helped us on several occasions with different issues and was always so pleasant to deal with. On the Memory Care unit there are two activities directors, Samantha and Christopher who are great and are so engaged with the residents. They provide meaningful activities to keep the residents happy, the activities exceeded are expectations! Family members are always welcome to join their loved ones and it makes the visits even more interactive with my mother who has dementia.
Audria, the Executive Director was wonderful to deal with. She was on top of things and really listened to any concerns we had and helped resolve them quickly. The Care Managers (aides) on the Memory Unit were always so pleasant to deal with and really took the time to get to know my mother.
The residents are always given a choice of foods for each meal, so there is always something they can eat. The new renovations are beautiful and the extended parking lot is super helpful for guests and staff.
My father visited for hours every day, and the staff couldn’t have been kinder to him! Great attitudes from staff from the top down!
