10 Best Memory Care Facilities in Alcalde, NM

My mother in law has been happy at Brookdale. They have lots of activities, something for everyone. She is getting her meals and meds on time, and the staff seem to really care. The center courtyard is lovely.

In 2018, I moved my mom to the TRV assisted living unit, which was small, warm and welcoming. Her adjustment was rapid, unlike her negative response to the time she had spent in other facilities in NM and VA. We were able to decorate her room to suit her tastes, personalizing her intimate living space. The staff to patient ratio was excellent allowing the staff to individually take care of each resident. This attention to her personal needs allowed her to finally relax since my father's death in 2010. Visiting her became a joy, as I too was welcomed into the assisted living community. Residents from independent living would visit the impaired and activities were open to all community residents. My mom died in Feb. 2019. The entire staff made whatever adjustments she needed as she approached the end of her life. I only wish I had been aware of TRV's assisted living unit much earlier in her journey.

Most of the staff at MorningStar Assisted Living and Memory Care of Santa Fe is wonderful. There are a couple that have bad attitudes. The housekeeping in her apartment is average at best, but in all fairness, I'm not 100% certain that my mom doesn't turn them away when they come to clean. She has Alzheimer's so getting the facts is difficult. The move in process was outstanding and the maintenance staff is awesome. They mounted her headboard and tv onto the walls and put together a nightstand for her. I couldn't believe it. The meals and the selections are good. After having looked at quite a few Assisted Living/Memory Care facilities we chose MorningStar and overall we've been extremely happy.
