Sunrise of Lincoln Park

Moving Dad to Sunrise has been the best decision I’ve made since the day his care fell to me. The team at Sunrise has become our community. The people genuinely see Dad and me. We both have received the support and care that we need. Dad is in a safe and protecting environment where his ever-changing needs are perceived, understood, and met with thoughtfulness and careful attention. I have been able to be his ‘kid’ once again— the person who loves him and gets to be playful and light, and hopefully make him smile and know how much his life still matters. I also get to rest easier, knowing I have a whole team along with me on this journey. I’ve had shoulders to cry on and support groups to share with— people who truly understand and can empathize with me. I’m also encouraged to take care of my own mental and physical health by stepping away when I need to. Thank you, one and all.

Life is pretty great at Sunrise of Lincoln Park! I think the community truly stands out because of the boutique-style atmosphere and close-knit community feel. Being a smaller community allows the team to provide a much more personalized level of care and attention to each resident. The staff genuinely knows the residents on an individual level — their routines, preferences, personalities, and what makes them feel most at home.

I do not currently have any related loved ones at this Residence but I am very familiar with Sunrise!They have a full staff of personalable, hospitable and kind people. It's surely not your average Assisted Living. Top care is provided here and there is sense of community. I recommend this location or any Sunrise Assisted Living location but I'm familiar with Lincoln Park and that's where it's at! I only gave 4 and not 5 stars because there's always room to grow become better!

My MIL was a resident of Sunrise Senior living in Chicago, Illinois (Lincoln Park facility). She moved in there November 2023. She had 3 serious falls, she broke her wrist once, fell in the shower and broke her elbow. In November of 2024, she was found unresponsive in her room. She fell out of bed and they didn’t check on her that evening at all. I am attaching pictures. She had a broken arm and horrible black eyes. She ultimately succumbed to these injuries. At my MIL’s funeral services, a representative from Sunrise - Rebecca, attended the services. She offered her condolences and I responded “It was just too hard for her to recuperate from the fall”. Rebecca responded “Fall? What fall?” I said “the one where she broke her arm and got black eyes”. She gasped and said “Oh honey, she was punching herself!” I don’t think any 96 year old woman, who was probably all of 85 pounds could do this to themself. I had to walk away to not make a scene. While I don’t think there abuse, I can say they do NOT monitor their residents. They don’t care and if you call they won’t answer anything. I wanted her moved to a new facility which would be more of a nursing home and not an assisted living. We were told she doesn’t need that, but she had documented dementia. My husband did not have power of attorney of her health so our hands were tied. Please, please place your loved ones in a different facility. Do not use Sunrise Senior Living in any city.
