Keeping in Touch
We understand how difficult it is to be apart from your loved one and encourage you to contact them often by phone or mail. You may also schedule window visits or FaceTime calls. Please feel free to call us to set up a time. An email account dedicated to messages for our residents has also been created. Our Team page has department contact information and we ask that you call us for anything you need.
We will continue to update our Facebook page and this website. Please check back often for information.
Resident Transportation
To ensure infection control practices are in place and to reduce possible COVID-19 exposure, it is the policy of Sunset Home that all resident transportation, excluding emergency transfers, will be done by facility staff. This includes hospital admission and discharges along with regularly scheduled doctor appointments. Our staff are trained to disinfect vehicles between transports and to wear appropriate PPE. As we are ultimately responsible for the exposures our residents face, we feel this is best practice for our present situation.
For questions regarding transportation, please contact the facility at (785) 243-2720 ext. 126.
