Frequently Asked Questions
What care options are available?
The Turning Point offers assisted living, short-term-stays, skilled nursing care for those with memory loss as well as coordination of hospice and other care services.
Assisted Living is best for seniors who need some help with certain everyday tasks such as getting dressed, bathing, meal time and taking medications and may also have specific care plans to address fall risk, poor nutrition or other individualized needs.
The Turning Point offer skilled nursing care for seniors who need full time medical care as they recover from surgery, injury or hospitalization. We also offer respite or short-term stays, which help those with temporary care needs.
Can The Turning Point help if my mom or dad has experienced falls in the past?
We develop Care Plan for each resident that details the needs and preferences and addresses safety concerns for each client. Many of our daily activities offer exercise programs that focus on strength and balance which may reduce the risk of falling.
How is my level of care determined?
Upon move-in, our nurses and care team will assess your current health and review your medical history to see how we can best meet your needs. They will also discuss your preferences as well as your normal routines to develop a care plan that’s tailored for you.
Can you help to provide a doctor?
We believe in a family’s right to choose everything – from a primary care physician to a physical therapist. Residents may keep their current physicians or our team can help them find physicians near the community. Some doctors make regular visits to our communities, but a resident is not obligated to use them.
Do you offer 24-hour nursing?
We have nurses available 24-hours a day.
What are the typical services provided in Sunrise’s Assisted Living?
Some of our residents in assisted living simply require general oversight and reminders while others need various levels of care and assistance. We can assist our residents with all of their necessary daily activities such as showering, dressing, grooming and even dining.
How quickly can you help?
We work with each family to support their needs as best we can, including accommodating urgent move-ins when possible. Residents receive a full care assessment prior to moving in, which helps our care team develop his or her service plan. In some cases, a move-in can occur in as little as a few hours.
What is the average age of residents in assisted living?
In general, our residents are in their mid-80’s.
Do you allow pets? Can I bring my dog or cat with me?
Yes, you are welcome to bring your own pet with you! If you are comfortable caring for your pet and they are an appropriate pet for the community setting we would love for them to join our Sunrise family.
What is included in the costs?

Will my loved one have access to transportation services for doctors’ visits, activities they participate in outside the community, church services, etc.?
Yes, transportation to and from activities and outings are part of our program. We include a day in each week where we take our residents shopping or sightseeing in the area.
Are there restrictions on visiting hours?
As this is our residents’ home, we welcome visitors and work with our family and friends to visit their loved ones at a time that works best for them.
Do you offer any short-term stays?
Yes, we do offer short-term stays. A short-term or respite stay is a convenient option when planned or unforeseen circumstances occur such as an extended family vacation or recovery from an illness. Guests can receive assistance during an illness or rehabilitation after a hospital visit, and some of our communities offer skilled nursing for those needing more care.
