Photo Tour of Sunrise Haven
In January 2001, Sunrise Haven moved to its new location on a 1.6-acre parcel of land in a quiet, residential neighborhood near the top of Kent's "east hill." About 40 minutes from downtown Seattle and 20 minutes from Seattle-Tacoma Airport, our facility is easily accessible from major highways and public transportation. Get directions and contact information.
Sunrise Haven's building features a unique, contemporary blending of rural American and Asian characteristics that fits unobtrusively with the homes that surround it. The front porch reaches out to provide a welcoming image to the neighbors and those passing by.
Inside, the central Nurses' Station is at the heart of the facility, with the patient rooms and activity areas circling around it. Artwork donated by local artists and others in the Sunrise Haven family grace the walls. The homelike atmosphere is warm, peaceful, light, and harmonious.
The Day Room features a gas fireplace with comfortable sitting area; our library with a complete set of bound volumes and other books; a piano for musical activities; and our light and gracious dining area. On many evenings this room is used for viewing videos.
Patients and guests come together for delicious, "home-cooked" meals, lovingly prepared by our dedicated kitchen staff.
In a private alcove, guests use a computer for research in Concord and "Found Volumes" and for access to the Internet.
The facility is designed for maximum privacy of patients and guests. Oil paintings of Washington scenes and fresh flower arrangements complement furnishings carefully chosen for comfort, quality, and their non-institutional appearance.
Each room has a private bath with amenities conducive to patient care.
Outside, plantings utilizing many native species display a variety of color and texture throughout the seasons. A walkway with railing along the west garden aids in enjoyment of the fresh air and outdoor setting.
A striking fountain complements the colorful plantings on the north terrace. A second terrace to the west acts as a visual gateway to the peaceful setting of the adjacent city park. The park contributes the sweet sound of children playing and offers the opportunity for a refreshing morning's walk or evening's amble.
