Located in DeKalb County, Georgia, Sunrise of Decatur is a beautiful community with a warm, lively feel. Our  passionate and tenured team  is on hand 24 hours a day and works to learn and understand your personal needs and preferences.

We have a strong relationship with Westchester Elementary and volunteer with many churches in the area.

We are proud to offer a robust  activities schedule  each week, tailored to our residents’ interests and designed to engage the mind, body, and spirit. In addition to volunteering, our residents look forward to activities like Word in a Word, cocktail hour, baking hour, and our weekly outings to attractions like Georgia Aquarium, World of Coke, Atlanta Braves games, Fernbank Science Center, and Fernbank Museum of Natural History.

At Sunrise, we recognize that diet is one of the most important aspects of a senior's life. We focus on from-scratch cooking using fine ingredients that favor natural herbs and spices, as well as many local and fresh ingredients to serve our residents delicious and well-balanced meals each day. Our highly trained chefs talk regularly with our residents to learn what menu items they would like featured in the community as we strive to create a restaurant-style dining experience for all to enjoy.

We are devoted to providing our residents support and services, based on research and theories of aging—working hard to fulfill our mission to champion quality of life for all seniors. Our  founder , Paul Klaassen said, “The best senior living has yet to be invented,” and we take this to heart. To us, this means committing to continuous quality improvement by learning from our past experiences and current residents and families.
