The staff here are amazing they go above and beyond to care for their patients. It is homely. You are made so welcome when you visit. The food is very good. They also have mid-morning and afternoon snacks. Mum loved it here and when she became very ill the staff were very good and we knew she was being well looked after. The town centre is so close if we need anything. I would definitely recommend this home.
Thank you for your kind words and thank you for letting us be part of your mum's life it was a pleasure.

I would recommend Sunrise to all family and friends in the future.

My mother has been a resident since April 2021. My mother has complex needs, is well cared for and appears happy and content. She really enjoys her food and sitting in the garden. The manager and staff work extremely hard to provide a home and supportive environment. They address any concerns quickly and in a professional manner. The team are currently working tirelessly to upgrade the environment and facilities since coming out of the pandemic.
Nothing appears too much for the staff, and they are very happy and cheerful.

My mother spent three years at the Sunrise Nursing Home in Felixstowe. The staff who looked after her were exceptionally kind and caring. She had a beautiful view of the sea from her bed, and members of her family were always made very welcome. Her room was always clean and smelt fresh, and she loved the food. The staff enabled her to spend her last days in a calm and dignified way with the family at her bedside, able to see her smile, hold her hands and catch her last few words. Thank you so much to all at the Sunrise.
An amazing team who looked after my dad so well in his final few months. So caring and attentive and went above and beyond, even visiting him when he was in the hospital for a short while. Thank you to everyone at Sunrise; you are all stars.

The staff are very friendly, and everyone always seems happy. A lovely, warm and clean environment. My brother-in-law is so happy here, and the staff go out of their way to help meet his needs. It always appears well organised. Happy for my brother-in-law to be there.

My uncle came here originally for respite care for a week; however, after initially having doubts about him being in full-time care, this week showed that the care and mental stimulation that Sunrise care home gave him, there was no doubt this was the best place for him to be. He has now been there five months and cannot praise the home enough. The staff and management go above and beyond to make him feel at home. My uncle has a diagnosis of Down’s Syndrome and Dementia, and it is such a reassurance that the home can meet his needs. He has made many friends and enjoys taking part in the large array of activities offered. There are many areas in the home where you can sit together and have quality time together with a cup of tea and cake. It is like one big happy family home, and that is thanks to the wonderful team at all levels who are dedicated to the well-being of their residents. I would highly recommend Sunrise care home to any prospective residents.
Nana is very comfortable there - the first time she has felt settled.

Our aunt has lived at Sunrise Nursing Home for a year now, and she has never been happier. They encourage her sociability and provide her with much warmth and attention. She loves the food and never has any complaints. It would be nice to see some of the profits go into making the place and its furnishings less shabby, which lets down the overall feeling of the place as uncared for, though doesn't overshadow the fantastic work the carers do around the clock. Although run down, it doesn’t stop the place from feeling homely, open and welcoming. We are so pleased she is there and that we know she is well looked after.

After a lovely respite break at Sunrise, we decided this was the right home for my brother to move to permanently. He has settled in really well and is loving all the activities and the staff - it really is a home-from-home! He has a lovely sea view from his room as well. The staff are really supportive of the whole family, and this has made the decision for us so much easier than we expected. I would totally recommend Sunrise to anyone looking for a warm and friendly home.
Thank you for your review. We pride ourselves on making Sunrise a warm, friendly and home-from-home.

Sunrise is a wonderful, warm and friendly home. Every time I visit my uncle, there is always a homely and fun atmosphere with plenty of activities. The staff are amazing, and you can see the great relationship they have with the residents. The management has made the transition of my uncle moving to this home so easy. They have gone above and beyond to help us as a family as well as the best interests of my uncle. My uncle has been thriving since he moved into the home, and we couldn’t be more happy. Thoroughly recommend Sunrise.
Thank you for your review. I will ensure that the staff receive your comments.

The food always looks lovely, and the refurbishments have made a great difference. The manager's door is always open, and she is happy to talk to me either on the phone or face to face.
My father told me that they have had a ukulele band recently, so it’s nice to know that they are having entertainment and activities.
I can not thank all the staff at Sunrise enough for all that they do.
Sunrise Nursing Home has been rejuvenated since coming out of Covid-19. They have a new manager and are now fully staffed. There seems to be a happy atmosphere amongst the staff and that reflects on the residents and all the relatives visiting their loved ones.

Sunrise was the perfect home for my grandad. He had always lived in Felixstowe near the sea, so he loved that he could see the sea from his window.

The Covid pandemic was extremely well managed, and the staff remained cheerful throughout such difficult times.
I would have no hesitation in recommending 'Sunrise' to anyone seeking a nursing home for a friend or relative.

I call daily for an update, and all the staff have been very kind and helpful in informing me of their health and states of mind in what has been a very stressful year. All have been very supportive and helpful. Visiting is very carefully managed to the benefit of all.
Due to the situation, I have been unable to enter the home since they were admitted.
The staff and management have given my husband excellent treatment. They are so kind and caring.
