Sunrise of Morris Plains is a great facility with great people. I am a local musician and play for several different assisted living facility’s. What I found is that the people that work there make the difference. What makes Morris Plains great is how the staff interacts with its residents during my performances. They are up beat which helps the residents get involved.

Placing a loved one in assisted living is a difficult decision at best. After doing extensive research in numerous states and a variety of assisted living communities, I am so grateful the Sunrise of Morris Plains family. My loved one is well cared for in a place that is bright, cheerful, and filled with caring staff that have taken the time to get to know my loved one and develop a relationship with them. I have witnessed “inside jokes” between my loved one and staff, and the excitement on both my loved one’s face and theirs with every interaction is so heart-warming! I am forever grateful for the care and attention at Sunrise of Morris Plains.

Our mom was at Sunrise of Morris Plains Feb 9 – Sept 4, 2025. Starting in April, she was placed on unnecessary “companion care” at $37/hr, 24 hours/day, on top of the monthly fee. She was sent to the ER multiple times for “evaluation,” even when hospital staff said there was no medical reason. Laundry and bedding were neglected, and her clothes were often lost or swapped. Since moving her to a new community, she’s thriving, along with four other residents who also left Sunrise. Families deserve better oversight, communication, and transparency.
