  • Sunrise Of San Rafael Description

    Minutes north of the Golden Gate Bridge in beautiful Marin County, you’ll find COGIR of San Rafael, a warm, welcoming and secure Memory Care community. Here, amid lovely outdoor spaces and scenic North Bay views, the focus is on each individual resident—creating a safe, friendly environment for your loved one filled with meaningful activities like music, and exercise programs, as well as daily support, medication management and special dietary plans.

    You can feel the personal touch as soon as you walk in the door. We know this is a difficult time for you as well as your loved one. That’s why we’re here to offer the support you need right from the start. Our program adheres recommendations from the Alzheimer’s Association® for incorporating the evidence-based Dementia Care Practice Recommendations for Alzheimer’s and dementia, person-centered care, assessment and care planning, activities of daily living, and behaviors and communication.

    The first step is a deep dive with you and your loved one to get an intimate picture of their life history, areas of interest and personal preferences. Then our staff of nurses, physicians, caregivers and dieticians work together to use this knowledge to individualize communication, redirect behaviors and reinforce safety, comfort and a sense of well-being.

    Review Summary

    The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.

    Reviews of Cogir and Sunrise senior living facilities show a mix of experiences. Some reviewers appreciate the skilled and patient staff, noting improvements over time. However, concerns are raised about communication, with families feeling left in the dark unless they proactively reach out. The transition from Sunrise to Cogir has been criticized for poor management, lack of staff training, and reduced activities.

    On the positive side, Cogir of San Rafael Memory Care is praised for its focus on memory care, offering a variety of activities, amenities like a library, beauty parlor, and outdoor areas. Some visitors found the facility to be a bit dated, while others appreciated its homey feel, friendly staff, and good food. The transition from other communities to Cogir has been described as smooth by some, highlighting a caring staff and a welcoming environment.

    Conversely, there are complaints about the dining service being disorganized, with late food service and concerns over hygiene. Management's attention to residents' needs and the overall quality of service have been questioned, with some reviewers advising against the facility due to perceived negligence.

    Other reviews highlight the cleanliness of the property and the friendliness of the staff, though some felt the facility was not the right fit for their needs, particularly for those not requiring memory care. The smaller size of the facility and limited outdoor access were noted, but the staff was described as friendly.

    Overall, experiences vary widely, with some families finding the care and environment suitable and enjoyable for their loved ones, while others express dissatisfaction with management and services. Prospective residents and their families are encouraged to consider these varied experiences when making a decision.
