Our read on Sunrise Health Services
Sunrise Health Services runs 99 beds in Milwaukee under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.25 hours per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends are thinner still, about 10% below the home's own weekday levels, so the hours when families most often visit are also the leanest. Turnover is the one number that beats the norm: 29.8% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record is the harder read. Thirty-nine deficiencies are open, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and three abuse-related, with $113,910 in fines across two penalties. The most recent inspection was July 24, 2025. Ask about those harm-level findings specifically, and ask who is on the floor on Saturdays.
