Sunrise of Newtown Square

When our family decided that our mother must leave her home and move into assisted living, we toured many facilities to determine what would be best for her. Sunrise Newtown Square was our clear choice. Some other facilities had beautiful infrastructure and support staff, but we thought they could not handle our mother’s memory issues correctly. We also experienced some places trying to take advantage of us financially instead of telling us they were not a good match for the situation.

Their property is clean, modern, and built to give people with memory issues, which our mother has, a feeling of a home. It is also in a perfect location for our family.

The staff that gave me the property tour answered our questions, reviewed our situation, and worked quickly, thoroughly, and with no sales pressure. The nurse met with my mother in the hospital to ensure she would be a good fit for Sunrise.

Our mother, who very much wanted to continue to live in her home of over 50 years, quickly transitioned successfully. Fortunately, we have many family and friends in the area. As they have visited, all have left with positive feedback for Sunrise and all their staff.

A situation like ours never has a perfect solution, but our family considers ourselves blessed with how well things have turned out. We went from having constant worry to peace of mind. Our mother is being cared for by professionals who understand her needs and have experience servicing them and the resources to do it properly.

Overall things are going very well. What I notice is how nice all the staff are. They kindly consider her, invite her to join outings, or the Veterans Parade! It means a lot! If my Mom were to ask for anything, I know the staff would step in. The residents are very nice as well! (Mom and I got a tour of another resident's apartment which was so nice of the other resident to give us a tour!)

My mom had a short respite stay at Sunrise after partial hip replacement in June. As a family we knew she was not strong enough to return home after only 21 days of PT and OT.
Since Sunrise Newtown Square is less than a 5 min drive from my home, I spoke with the director Kevin who was very professional, caring and explained the short stay program to me with the option to become a permanent resident.. My family and I found Sunrise Newtown Square to be friendly, very welcoming. She met friends there and had frequent family visits. Live Entertainment, fun games and social events as well as religious services kept her active. While we wished she stayed permanently , she wanted to return to her home where she lived for 56 years.
We are grateful for the terrific staff members, Kevin, Dom, Jody, Zakema to name a few and the many others who took the time to make her stay fun and comfortable. Thank you so much 😊
