Sunrise of East Setauket sits among tall trees and cozy outdoor spaces and offers different types of care and living options for people aged 55 and older, so if someone's looking for independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, respite care, or even end-of-life hospice, this place covers those bases, and the two-story building has several floor plans like studios, one-bedrooms, and companion suites, all with plush carpets, private bathrooms, kitchenettes, and big windows, and there are private and shared apartments to pick from, which means people can pick what fits their needs and budgets. The place tries to make things easy for residents and families, offering housekeeping, laundry, meals, and personal care, and they can deliver meals to rooms or use private dining areas, with special diets like low or no salt and sugar on request, so people needing that support won't feel left out. There's a nurse on staff and a doctor on call, and staff can help with all kinds of transfers, bathroom needs, medication help including insulin shots, blood sugar checks, reminders, and incontinence care, and the staff know how to handle tougher behavior problems, wandering, or even physical outbursts, so people with memory loss or tougher behavior may still be able to stay safely, since the property has secured areas, bracelets to help prevent wandering, and programs like the Reminiscence Program and Terrace Club to help residents with memory issues feel calmer and more settled.
The building is pet-friendly, letting residents bring cats or small dogs, and there are several pet-focused programs, so people who love animals don't have to say goodbye to their companions, and the grounds include gardens and outdoor sitting spots for fresh air and company. Sunrise of East Setauket has a bistro, media room, piano room, library, living room, and sitting room, which makes it easier for residents to pick where they want to spend their time, and they offer activities all day long with a full-time activity director-art classes, brain fitness, offsite trips, trivia, music, and other things to keep minds sharp and spirits up, plus devotional services right there in the building or out in the community for people who want spiritual support.
Transportation is available for shopping or outings and there's parking for those who drive, and the community supports people who speak English and maybe some other languages, which can help people feel more at home. Visiting health professionals like eye doctors, dentists, podiatrists, and therapists come on-site, so residents don't have to arrange trips out unless they want to, and the facility offers physical, occupational, and speech therapies when needed. People can also use Wi-Fi, watch TV in the shared spaces, go to fitness and wellness programs, get salon services, and take part in all kinds of games, lectures, intergenerational events, or outings, so there's plenty to do for people who want to stay busy. There's an emergency call system in each apartment and the staff are always close by in case residents need help fast, and the facility uses state licenses numbered 700 and 926.
Sunrise of East Setauket doesn't feel like a hospital, even though it can offer skilled nursing and more hands-on help, and there's always an effort to keep each resident comfortable, supported, and as independent as possible, using something they call their Principles of Service, which balance privacy, safety, and family input. They use a holistic style and pay attention to what people want, whether that means more activities, more support, or just peace and quiet, and the place has been committed to seniors for over 35 years, so there's a track record of experience. Neleen Maimone leads the sales team, and people can visit their website for more details and specific questions about the community or its care.
