Sunrise Of Wilton

From $7,691/mo

211 Danbury Road, Wilton, CT, 06897
Assisted Living, Memory Care

"My experience with Sunrise is that it’s a corporation. Corporations try to maximize profit. How do they do this? Well, salespeople blatantly lie and/or leave out facts. For example, you might be told there is a 10 mile radius that a driver will take you to. What they don’t tell you is that the driver is barely there. Monday-Thursday until 4pm only. Sure, that helps some folks, but certainly doesn’t help all residents. Then there’s the food situation. Just about every resident complains about the food. Food quality has declined significantly since it first opened, as has the service. The food is warm, almost never hot. If you want more, sorry, but that’s another entree so you can’t have that. Good help is hard to come by and either Sunrise doesn’t value their help, or they don’t have the budget to keep good help. Management needs to step back and reevaluate the situation. They are heading down a path that will leave them with an empty building. Beautiful community though." - Honest…

"I've been very impressed with the staff and management at Brightview Shelton since my mom moved there. They have quite a few different floor plans and we ended up going with the one bedroom which so far is working out well because there is a "den" space too. The staff are all very friendly and seem to really enjoy their jobs. The calendar of events is always changing and at least every week there is something my mom is excited about. Jackie on the sales team goes out of her way to say hi every time she sees us. Thank you Brightview Shelton team for making my mom so happy in her new home!" - Jesus…
