Our Serving Heartd
Our Serving Hearts
Sunrise Senior Living team members believe real happiness and joy come from serving others. Joy in Service is not just a Sunrise Core Value; it is a guiding principle for all that we do, and a passion that’s evident in daily interactions with residents and other team members.
We hire people who have a natural serving heart and share our commitment to quality senior care. All team members attend Sunrise University, our internationally recognized training program, where new employees fine-tune their skills to prepare them for their role.
A cornerstone of Sunrise University, The Learning Channel is an online resource where employees participate in self-guided career training featuring: online courses, customized tools to help in specific roles, group training courses, continuing education and skill building tips and exercises.
Our team members are proud to share the meaning of their work:
“Everyone has the right to a good quality of life and it makes me feel good knowing that we make the residents’ lives better. We laugh with them, cry with them, sing and dance with them — we’re there when they go to sleep and there when they wake up in the morning to brighten their day. Working here is an unbelievable privilege and it will be something I carry with me for the rest of my life!”
— Lead Care Manager, Brighton Gardens of Westlake, OH
“Although I had been a restaurant chef for years, I didn’t have any experience in assisted living when I began as a Dining Services Coordinator. So, I looked to the residents for advice and ideas to keep them excited about the food we serve. We have so many different cultures here and I incorporate each of them into our meals. The most important thing is just listening to the residents.”
— Dining Services Coordinator, Brighton Gardens of Columbia, MD
“She carries out the Sunrise mission to champion the quality of life for all seniors in every interaction she has with our residents and families. She always comes to work with the biggest smile on her face and is eager to serve! She takes great pride in giving each resident she cares for the highest quality of care. She is the best of the best!”
— Executive Director’s description of a Lead Care Manager, Sunrise of Chesterfield, MO
“I feel fortunate to work in such a great community where I can feel confidence and pride in the services I present to prospective residents and their families. I am one of the lucky few that can honestly say I love my job and the team that I work with.”
— Director of Sales, Sunrise of Sandy, UT
“She is devoted to the residents and has a real passion for Sunrise, as evidenced by her daily actions. She visits residents on her days off, often bringing in food or other items they may request. On one occasion, she brought in a lighted, decorated Christmas tree for a resident who didn’t have one. On New Year’s Eve she bought roses for all of the residents and passed them out while giving them all heart-felt hugs.”
— Executive Director’s description of a Lead Care Manager, Brighton Gardens of St. Charles, IL
“As a new team member, I must say how wonderful it is to feel the love, warmth, and camaraderie between the team members. Our hardworking, outstanding, knowledgeable and simply the best executive director is the driving force behind this wonderful team. I am just beaming, and I am excited to be a part of this community.”
— Assisted Living Coordinator, Sunrise of Mill Basin, NY

Our Commitment to Quality Care
As part of the Sunrise Signature Experience, we are committed to providing our residents with a home that is safe and secure. We provide continued education and training, clinical care protocols and multiple quality assurance measures to reinforce the strong standards that set Sunrise apart from other assisted living facilities. New team members at every community complete a comprehensive Sunrise training curriculum focused on the care and well-being of our residents.
I have to say that your organization is extremely well run. I congratulate you. This doesn’t happen by accident. When something looks easy, it is because those doing it are pros, and not because what they do is simple…
Resident & Family Surveys
Annually, we survey residents and their families about their experiences, and they confirm that quality of life at Sunrise goes above and beyond what’s expected at anassisted living facility. We’re also proud that the vast majority of those surveyed would strongly recommend Sunrise assisted living to their friends and family. In 2012 alone, more than 2,200 new residents made Sunrise their home as part of our Friends & Family Referral Program. Here are the top responses to our survey:
Built With Seniors in Mind
Our culture encourages teamwork. Every Sunrise community team member is directly involved in monitoring the safety of our residents. When something does not happen as it should, we are all over it. Our communities were built with seniors in mind and include these safety features:
Furniture with rounded edges and flame-retardant, hygienic fabrics
Mid-point and end-of-corridor seating that offers rest stops and conversation areas
Innovative chair rails along corridors to provide support and guidance for residents
Quality and Safety at Sunrise
At least once a month, regional leaders review standards in resident care, clinical operations, regulatory and compliance, dining, facilities and maintenance and HR and training. Specific safety measures include:
Construction, materials and practices designed to minimize fire risk and maximize resident safety
Security monitoring and community access controlled by trained team members
Sunrise-monitored emergency call pendants and pull stations in each suite and bathroom
Sunrise also uses specially developed, senior-friendly interior design techniques to create beautiful, comfortable and convenient environments that help maximize resident safety.
Always Reaching Higher
We take care to hire team members with the right skills who also have a caring heart for serving seniors. In turn, our professional staff choose to work at Sunrise communities over other assisted living facilities for the opportunity to enhance the lives of seniors. On a monthly basis, our regional leaders review standards in:
- Resident Care
- Clinical Operations
- Regulatory & Compliance
- Dining
- Facilities & Maintenance
- Human Resources & Training
We salute you and thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness…It is a blessing not only to residents, but also to their families.
By delivering on our commitment to quality, residents and their families enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a top-rated senior living community. Our residents expect us to do what’s right for them, which is why we are constantly learning, improving and striving to provide them with the best possible care.
