The whole facility, including all the common areas, is quite clean and always smells good. My mom gave it a 4 only because the cleaning people seem to ignore my Dad's floor in his room.) My dad requires a lot of extra care due to his left side paralysis from the stroke. For this reason, someone with such extreme loss of autonomy might do better in a facility where they have a higher level of care. Having said that, they do pretty darn good. The food is not home cooked and my Dad is used to my mom's exceptional cooking. That's a pretty high standard. Morning Star is impressive. The common areas are wonderful. The entertainment and activities are wonderful. They take care to decorate for all the holidays extravagantly. And, the location of MorningStar is outstanding. Fountain Hills has all kinds of fun to be had within walking distance or, if you're in a wheelchair, within pushing distance: excellent restaurants, all kinds of festivals and parades, and the beautiful park with all its amenities....

My husband has been in the memory care area for about 2 months. We love it here. The activities are varied and the residents are very well cared for. But the best part of MorningStar is the kindness and love of its staff. They are all so gentle and accommodating and put the needs of the residents first. We are very lucky to be here.

Response from MorningStar of Fountain Hills
March 24, 2020What a testimony to our mission and the authentic calling we feel to serve the memory-impaired. Thank you so kindly for making your sentiments public.
So helpful beginning with the initial call to the facility was not evasive when making decisions. Empathetic, passionate, patient staff. Rapid response to phone calls, emails, etc. I would highly recommend MorningStar Sr. Living.

Response from MorningStar of Fountain Hills
March 14, 2020You have testified to the love that we feel so deeply for our resident-seniors. We are building family for life, and your words of praise endorse that fact.
After working in Assisted Living for many years I can confidently say this it one of the nicest, cleanest and competently run facilities. Our Mom is surrounded by genuinely kind and fun staff. We love going to visit her and enjoy the activities as much as she does! Without a doubt the food is terrific with an experienced chef at the helm. Meals with he and his staff mean the food is served by smiling faces and consistently good. All of the staff are like family to us and they go out of their way to ensure that MorningStar has an aura of positivity. Our Mom is doing terrific there with new friends and fun things to do. We are so happy that Mom loves MorningStar and gets such good care!

I am a physical therapist that sees and treats many residents over the past 2 years in this MorningStar location. I visit and work within many assisted living/memory care facilities, however none deliver the quality of living and caregiving that MorningStar of Fountain Hills can provide.

MorningStar of Fountain Hills is unlike any community I have experienced; and I have visited over 30 in the area. Not only is the new building and decor beautiful, the food is impressive, and extremely clean; the staff is filled with joy and committed to serving the residents who are lucky enough to reside there.
