A place you can feel comfortable leaving your loved one

I would recommend they try it. We have seen that the people there are kind and attentive. The facility is nice. The only downside is the price but that is not to say that they are charging too much. It is just an expensive service

I’ve had a wonderful impression of Cherry Creek Senior Living. One of the things that stands out immediately is the tenure of the staff—you can tell many team members have been there for years, which speaks volumes about the culture and consistency of care. That kind of stability creates a real sense of trust for both residents and families. The residents themselves genuinely seem happy and engaged. There’s a warm, welcoming atmosphere that feels authentic, not forced. People know each other, staff interact with r

Warm and Welcome feeling

I recently visited the memory care at Sunrise Cherry Creek. I just want to say from my observation the residents were engaged, well kept and they seemed happy! The care staff were welcoming, polite and knowledgeable. I really liked the windows that overlooked the park and there was a lot of light. The patio was inviting and it allowed the residents to feel safe while being outside and still able to enjoy the outdoors. I felt welcomed and happy to be there. If you move your loved one here, you won't be disappointed!

Sunrise Review

If your loved one has a tendency to escape, then sunrise is not the place for them. I wish I had known that before we tried sunrise because my mom got out and they lost her. We needed a one floor memory care only facility with no fire exit doors. If I had known that in advance we wouldn't have had to move her in and then back out of Sunrise and onto another place.
