I was referred to Sun City post acute care through a social worker I met. My friend has been here for a couple of months and all the staff are very willing to help in anyway they can. The facility is very clean and well kept. There were staff members that come to mind, Lisa, Lucy, Paige, Donna, Angela, and many more that were right there to help you out whenever you needed it. We were here during the Halloween season and the facility was decorated so nicely. Everybody was having a good time decorating and it turned out very spooky!!! I would highly recommend this facility to anybody who would need to come here.
My mom had already been in another SNF that was awful. We found this one and they were fantastic. They gave greater care to my mom's needs. The facility was clean. The staff were wonderful. Everyone there has a great need, and the nurses and CNAs, they all do their best. The maintenance crew, the cooking staff, the PT staff, they all contributed to my mom's wellcare, ie; smiley faces, laughter, good personality. The decorations around the facility lifted up my mom's spirits, mine too! It takes a village to raise a child, but it also takes a village to caretake an elder and I appreciate everything they did for my mom. May the Lord bless you all for what you do. Thank you.
i had a pretty good experience while I was in there but any kind of aftercare....nope i have called 5 or 6 times with no return call. when you leave your on your own had me call for pt nursing ect to find out for myself there i none in my area. it took me 2 week to get my wheelchair because the right paperwork was not filed correctly i had refills on my medications that i cannot also fill. when you are discharged your on your own they should have atleast a little bit of time for aftercare help but nope they charge your insurance and once your gone like i said your on your own. so be prepared. and oh tell the night nurses to quit sleeping in the hall
Loved sun city! My grandma stayed at this facility for a few months after a hospital stay, and I genuinely can’t say enough good things. The nursing staff is awesome there! The facility was clean, and we could tell the team really cared about the residents. Anytime we had concerns, they were addressed quickly. Thank you Sun City team for taking such great care of her.
My grandma stayed at Sun City Post Acute and we had a really good experience. The staff was always friendly and helpful, and they treated her with care and respect. The place was clean and felt comfortable, which made a big difference for us. Overall, I’m grateful for how well she was looked after and would definitely recommend it.
