Sunrise of Claremont

The nursing staff and the food are good, but it is very expensive to live there. The average cost for my mother to live there now is $7,000 per month. Sometimes it’s closer to $8,000 per month. It all depends on her care level. When she doesn’t feel well her care level goes up. My mom has been living at Sunrise of Claremont for ten months and the cost keeps going up. In September I was billed $17, 068.18. I don’t know what those charges are for. She wasn’t even sick in September. I am currently disputing those charges.Those charges only include her rent, meals, and the care services she receives. Anything extra, like incontinent supplies, haircuts, guess meals, tray services to her room, laundry services, etc. are added to your monthly bill. You must also provide your own hygiene and linen supplies. They will provide transportation to some doctor appointments, depending on the scheduling, but a family member has to accompany the resident to the appointment. They will not provide transportation to regular medical appointments like dialysis. There are weekly site seeing outings that are free, but outings to restaurants are added to your monthly bill. They also have exercise classes, bingo, and weekly church activities.
