Sunrise of New Dorp offers three levels of residential care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—so residents can remain in the same community even if their needs change over time. The community is prepared to manage a wide range of health conditions, including residents who wander in the morning or evening, individuals at risk for elopement, those who stay up all night, and people requiring wound treatment, oxygen therapy, special diets, or complex diabetic care, whether that involves oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin. Staff are trained to care for residents under 60 years old and to support advanced dementia conditions, ensuring consistent monitoring and timely interventions.
Care delivery is supported by licensed nurses on staff, background-checked caregivers, an awake night shift, and 24-hour security with fenced grounds and pull-cord alerts in each apartment. On-site medical services include visiting podiatrists, audiology, therapy sessions in a dedicated room, and acceptance of psychiatric diagnoses. Full-assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and transfer help ranges from standby supervision and walker support to two-person assists or a full Hoyer lift. An activity director coordinates structured programs that align with each resident’s cognitive or physical abilities.
Apartments are offered in several layouts; some include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent temperature controls, furnishing, cable hookup, and the option to repaint or decorate. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are provided for all residents, and maintenance is handled by the community. Independent Living residents also receive medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, and personal laundry service so they can maintain autonomy while having safety nets in place. Because floor plans vary, not every unit contains every listed feature, so it’s best to confirm specifics during a visit.
Dining is designed to accommodate both preference and medical necessity. Residents can select from a set menu or order individually at each meal, and snacks are available throughout the day. A private dining room can be reserved for family gatherings. The culinary team works with clinical staff to provide texture-modified options such as mechanical-chopped, puréed, or thickened-liquid meals, and can support vegetarian choices and other physician-ordered diet modifications or restrictions, including diabetic and low-sodium plans.
The broader campus features resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty salon, exercise and wellness rooms, a movie room, library, computer and internet access points, communal gardens, special-interest clubs, and on-site religious services. A concierge coordinates scheduled transportation, and the location is close to public transit for those who prefer independent outings. Smoking is permitted outdoors in designated areas, and paved walkways allow easy mobility around the property.
