Jennifer was beyond grateful to be able to work with the Sunrise Senior Living organization and its leadership while simultaneously looking for a senior living community for her Mom. Working with Sunrise provided Jennifer the reassurance she needed to know that she was moving her Mom into senior living communities that she could trust and that would be Health-Safety Rated. Getting to personally tour, audit and interview the Sunrise teams at various communities across the country for work, really inspired Jennifer during a time that often leaves families distraught and overwhelmed. ASAP and GHP were extremely honored to have worked with Sunrise Senior Living, the first in the Senior Living Industry to achieve WELL Health-Safety Ratings for their entire portfolio through the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI)’s WELL at scale pathway. With 298 buildings and a total of 21 million square feet, Sunrise Senior Living is the largest in the Senior Living Industry to achieve the #WELL Health-Safety Rating at the enterprise level. 

ASAP (WELL EP) and GHP provided all WELL sustainability consulting services and support as Sunrise’s trusted advisors.
