Sunnybrook Senior Living sits by Moose Pond in Brunswick, Maine, and the place feels homey right away, partly because the staff-the nurses, kitchen helpers, managers, and front desk folks-greet everyone kindly and keep an eye out for what residents might need, whether that's help with meals, medication, hygiene, or just a friendly word. Friends and family can come visit, enjoy meals together, and join activities, which makes it easier for residents to stay connected. The apartments come in studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms, and many have views of Moose Pond, big windows for sunlight, and allow pets, which folks seem to appreciate. You're not dealing with chores like housekeeping or laundry since those are included, and the daily routine includes three meals made from scratch, served in either the Moose Pond Dining Room or the Good Dog Café, plus snacks and private dining if someone wants to celebrate with friends.
The community offers independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing all in one spot, so people can stay as their needs change, and that aging-in-place focus seems to matter a lot to families. There's hospice and respite care, too, so someone recovering from an illness or giving a caregiver a break has a safe place to stay. Memory care gets special focus, with safe spaces designed to help folks with Alzheimer's or dementia avoid getting lost or confused, and the program staff always looks for ways to keep everyone social, active, and engaged. The activities calendar is pretty full, with social events, fitness classes, entertainment, and games, plus educational and recreational programs.
Transportation comes complimentary for appointments and outings, Wi-Fi's available, parking's easy, and for folks who like a haircut now and then, there's a salon and barber on site. The building spans two stories, with walking paths outside, safe and secure entry, emergency response, and a team ready to step in when someone needs help right away. Housekeeping, meals, and support with daily tasks are all taken care of, so residents can keep their focus on the things they enjoy. The community leans into dignity, comfort, and providing a worry-free lifestyle, with specialized care plans for each resident, so seniors with different needs-whether fully independent, needing some assistance, or facing memory challenges-can all find a place here where they're treated with respect and kindness.
