Sunrise of Mercer Island offers various levels of care for seniors including assisted living, memory care, short-term stays and hospice care. Sunrise specializes in memory care, providing a special "neighborhood" for advanced Alzheimer patients. A higher level of care is available for residents with challenging health care needs. Physical therapy, specialized health care and regular exercise opportunities are offered on-site. Sunrise plans off-site activites for residents also. Sunrise's philosophy is to care not only for the physical needs of the residents, but for the whole person—mind, body and spirit. The staff is committed to providing opportunities for social interaction, mental exercise and spiritual fulfilment that suit the tastes and preferences of each resident.
