Nurse goes off on me because I openly went outside to the publix street sidewalk for hours at a time to make phone calls and smoked cigarettes i did next this several days and they never even noticed. They never told me there was smoking schedule. They also claimed control of the public street. They also tried to tell me that smoking way out on the street will cause the facility to explode. What a stupid lie to cover up their own negligence

I've been a resident since 02/22/2022. Four different administration. Daniel Jenkins, Mat, Leonard and now Yousuf. Yousuf micromanaging the facility and has completely damaged moral. I'll he he has done to me. Upon his second day, I went and introduced myself to him. He said that he is here to change the culture.<br>Every month he had Cyrus put the bill on my bed. The gave me two thirty day notices with false statements on them. Karen and Yousuf falsified introduce.<br>November 27th of this year I was coming back from a pre-op appointment. As I was entering the building, Yousuf and Cyrus were at the side walk. Yousuf, you know what day it is. I said yes. He said you 30 days are up. We're here to encourage your to your new home. As I precise towards the entrance, Yousuf said you are no allowed in the building, you're no longer a resident. I know my rights ad continued to to come in. He then says I'm calling the police on you. As I continued towards the double door he said I'll let you in. I told him I'm calling the police. I want to my LVN Kevin. The police should up in my room at 8:45pm.<br>I really found the entire escipad, the two offices said this is better you and them.<br>This man Yousuf, if you continue him one, prcedes to serve me with a law suit.<br>I am not the only resident he's done this to. Something is serious wrong with him.

My maternal and paternal grandparents for the past few years (approximately 8 years) have been in and out of this facility due to deteriorating health conditions. This facility has become like family and almost a second home with the number of visits we have frequented this place. Our family has complete trust in the staffs capability to care for the sick and elderly and attend to my Korean speaking grandparents.<br>I write this review from someone experienced in healthcare settings and understand the requirements of standard of care for each patient. I assume everyone has different encounters with the staff and will have differing opinions. My experience so far has been quite positive. I will not judge a facility based on one or two bad experiences but on a long term consistent care that has shown through action. My grandparents have always improved greatly before discharge and that shows their determination to aid the patient into the path of recovery.<br>Food: Mostly Korean food, taste varies depending on the menu. The menu is posted by the kitchen wall so I am able to see what my grandparents will be having. Snacks and coffee are given in between meals.<br>Parking: sufficient, it does get packed during late morning and lunch and street parking is advised. I visit after work so I have never had trouble finding a spot.<br>Cleanliness: Fairly Decent. Yes, there are signs of wear and tear but OSHA standards are visible.<br>Activities: there is an activity room and there is a set schedule with events throughout the day. My paternal grandmother enjoys bingo, word search, and singing along to hymn songs.<br>Religion: Different churches from different denominations come by and do worship and readings. Our family being catholic appreciate Sunday mass provided by the local church.<br>Physical Therapy: PT is done regularly depending on the set schedule, it has allowed my grandmother to get up after a severe back surgery. The curriculum and PT staff are quite excellent and notable strength of this facility. My grandmother whines about doing sets but they keep encouraging her at her own pace.<br>Hair cut: a volunteer comes in and cuts patients hair. Quite thankful to take care of my grandmother's messy bed hair.<br><br>Seeing how my grandparents have complete faith in the facility gave us a peace of mind, they never once complained about their stay. And that is why we keep bringing them back to Sun Mar.<br>It's a place for the sick and elderly to recover so that they may go back home with their loved ones.

My mom's health condition is a roller coaster but the amazing quality of care at Sun Mar is remarkably consistent and dependable. They are always at or near capacity, which tells me two things: 1) their patient to caregiver/nurse ratios are lower than most similar facilities (closer personal attention, love), and 2) communities who already know about Sun Mar make sure their loved ones (and the loved ones of friends) go here when they need help. If you are lucky to secure a spot here, your loved one will be in excellent hands. Jun, Andy, Lucy/Julie, Michael, and the activities director always were outstanding and after multiple stays, they have somehow elevated their care and service for my mom and me. The new social worker Ann is super sweet and helpful. Even the quality of food has gotten better! This place is the best hands-down, and the entire staff are life-savers (quite literally).
