The overall experience has been good and the overall cleanliness has been very good. The friendliness is excellent, the care services have been very good and the staff are excellent. The meals are good but I don't eat, the resident seems to think it's ok. The activities are good. the money's a lot. It's very hard for me to say. She pays twelve thousand dollars a month, which seems crazy. And she won't be able to live there for more than a year.

My cousin declined before she arrived there, and her decline continued. She was only there for 10 days before she passed. But the staff provided great care and were so kind. They did everything they could to help her. I am very grateful for their kindness and care.

Sunrise of McCandless was a beautiful place to stay, but it was a little expensive. It had all the amenities, a hair salon, and laundry being done. The room was beautiful. It had a little kitchen, a small refrigerator, and a nice bath. My sister-in-law only needed one room, but we were also shown a two-bedroom apartment, and it was beautiful.

From the first time we walked in, the facility was first rate, everyone we talked to was friendly and knowledgeable. We could see the interaction with the residents was excellent. Everyone there was extremely helpful and answered every question and concern we had.

The staff was friendly and there were good amenities. They also have two community pets on site, this was important to us because [name removed] has a dog but the dog wasn't going to be able to follow him into the home because he could not take care of it himself.
