Sunrise of Crystal Lake is a two-story senior living community with about 70 residents, sitting in a peaceful residential neighborhood and offering a warm, lively atmosphere that feels friendly as neighbors and staff know each other well, and sometimes there's laughter down the halls or out in the gardens where folks can pull up a chair under the gazebo or walk the paved paths around the flower beds or vegetable garden. The community helps seniors move into the right type of care, whether that's independent living, assisted living, memory care, nursing home services, or hospice coordination, and they've got programs in place that let families talk about questions, tours, waiting list spots, or contract details, and you can even schedule a virtual visit before you come to see it in person. There are studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and companion suites, with features like private kitchens or kitchenettes, cable TV, WiFi, washers and dryers, and easy-to-use safety features including sprinkler systems and wheelchair access. Residents can bring their pets, enjoy meals made daily in the dining room or bistro, and join plenty of activities, from games or arts and crafts in the activity rooms, movie nights in the TV room, or learning and outings like the "Lunch Bunch" trips or visits with local students and scouts, or even crochet blankets for the animal shelter with the "Happy Hookers" club.
They've got a highly-experienced and caring staff who support things like helping with bathing, dressing, medication, wound care, and getting around safely, especially for folks on the secured Reminiscence memory care floor, which is kept safe for people living with dementia or Alzheimer's, and each resident's care plan fits their own needs, aiming to help each person keep as much independence as possible while keeping them comfortable and looked after. Medical support includes on-site nurses, podiatry, occupational therapy, help with grooming and walking, and services like personal care assistants and transportation when needed, so people can get the help they need without losing their privacy or homey comforts. The staff tends to housekeeping and maintenance, the gardens keep the place green, and there are quiet corners or private dining rooms to gather with family. There's a fitness center, a salon and barbershop on site, and a full slate of social and wellness programs, including education and arts, to keep things interesting, so every day offers some way to connect, be active, or learn something new, whether that's a stroll outside, a chat in the lounge, or an off-site outing to a restaurant, cinema, or local theater. The community's been supporting seniors for 35 years, focusing on dignity and peace of mind, and tries to make sure every resident finds the right balance of care, comfort, and activity to fit their life.
