We couldn’t be happier with the care our mom is receiving at Sunset Heights. The staff truly take the time to connect, not just with residents, but with their families as well. Whenever we’re away, we have complete peace of mind knowing she is in a safe and supportive environment. Communication has been outstanding—there’s constant contact through both text and phone, and the management team (particularly Julia Taggart and Amy Haddox) is always open and responsive to any questions or discussions. What really stands out is their compassion and deep understanding of dementia care. It’s clear they genuinely care about each resident’s well-being. The home is always clean and well-maintained, and there are plenty of engaging activities like craft days that keep residents active and involved. They even offer thoughtful extras like hair and nail care. Medication management is handled thoroughly and professionally, which is a huge relief. The leadership also does an excellent job supporting and training caregivers, ensuring a high standard of care across the board. On the rare occasion that a concern arises, it’s addressed immediately and effectively. This home is truly night and day compared to our previous experience—and to top it off, it’s very cost competitive. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for compassionate, reliable care for their loved one.

I attended the Thanksgiving gathering for the families and residents. The management and staff did such a wonderful job and treated everyone like family. It was so great seeing the residents so happy. And even celebrated a birthday. It was amazing. Kuddos to all!!

I cannot say enough about this group! A close friend moved into this home and it has been such a great change! She gets to enjoy living in a home, decorating her room, sharing meals with close friends, gardening and many group activities. The care here is beyond expected. They treat each member as their own family member. Family and friends are welcome to visit and join in on the activities. Highly recommend and would choose Sunset Heights for my own family member. This environment is not something you can find in other homes.

I recently had the opportunity to visit Sunset heights and I was thoroughly impressed with the experience. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it feel like a true home rather than just a facility. The staff were incredibly attentive and genuinely cared about the well-being of the residents. Julia (the resident manager) was very detail oriented and knowledgeable of all the ins and outs of this home.The staff goes above and beyond to ensure everyone feels comfortable and valued. The home itself was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed to accommodate the needs of its residents. The rooms were cozy and personalized, creating a sense of individuality and respect for each person living there. The communal areas were inviting and provided plenty of opportunities for social interaction and activities. What stood out the most was the sense of community and family among the residents and staff. There was a genuine bond and camaraderie that made the environment feel nurturing and supportive. I would highly recommend this adult family home to anyone looking for a caring and compassionate place for their loved ones.

This adult group home has been perfect for my mom. They truly love her and take amazing care. They keep us informed and care about our family. I appreciate them beyond words and listen when I am concerned.
