I moved in and liked it so much I bought a second apartment for my mother! The staff is the most caring I have ever encountered and the facility is top-notch. Hope to meet you soon.

Sunrise of Flossmoor

Outstanding care and kindness. In particular, the Reminiscence caregivers' care and compassion and love (yes, love) for my mother was beyond wonderful. It's hard to put into words. My mother was in Assisted Living for 4 years and Reminiscence for 6. Sunrise of Flossmoor was truly her home

The Memory Care staff was always polite, friendly, and always willing to assist in my mother's needs. My family and I are very satisfied with how my mother was cared for.
