My brother (who lives out of state) and I had to make the difficult decision to move Mom out her home in November of 2024. She suffers from Alzheimer's, and even though we tried a live-in 24x7 caregiver in her home, things were spiraling out of control. To say that we are relieved that she is now living at Sunrise of Mountain Lakes is an understatement. Over the last year and a half, the staff there has become like extended family (Germaine, Barbara, Gifty, Lily, Kelly, Gayle, Nicole, Meredith, Kenya, Jeff - I can't even name everyone!...) are all wonderful. The level of care Mom receives is best-in-class. Alzheimer's is a brutal disease, and they treat Mom with the dignity and respect that she deserves, and trust me when I say, that is not always an easy job! While my Mom's comprehension level is severely impaired, she enjoys the daily activities, making "friends" with other residents, and the hugs and attention she gets each and every day from the Sunrise staff. There is no way I would have the skill to care for my Mom myself, as it's a full-time job; but knowing she is safe and cared for in a clean, immaculate and well-run facility gives me and my brother such tremendous peace of mind. I honestly don't know what would have happened if we didn't find Sunrise of Mountain Lakes; they have been "lifesavers" to me and my family, and I am so grateful for the love, care and compassion they show to my beautiful Mother.
