MorningStar Senior Living

Beautiful place, well-run, great staff, family-like feeling. Not cheap, but first-class. Our experience has been very good so far.

I would give a 5 in every category. Morningstar of Pasadena is a beautiful facility with friendly, caring and professional staff. My mother has done very well there and we feel great peace of mind knowing she is in good hands. I would highly recommend the facility.

Our family loves this place, MorningStar Senior Living is the best place for [name removed]!! I will more there too if events should happen. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to other families.

Excellent facility with superb, well trained and caring staff. Gorgeous location overlooking the World Famous Fountain Hills fountain. Walking distance to shopping, restaurants, and desert trails. The lush green park surrounding the fountain has a walking trail, statues, tributes, and ongoing seasonal activities. We thank A Place for Mom for helping us locate this facility!

They knew all the family names. They worked with Hospice team and medical teams very closely. Very coordinated service. They often consulted with family face to face. Only issue was a lag time to make any medication changes. But that was on the safe side.

I would recommend Morningstar The staff were friendly and knowledgeable and very helpful when [name removed] needed help.

Great communication especially with the nurses and care givers. A lot more activities and interaction with the residents and the employees than other places.

They were very helpful in guiding me through the admission process. Their staff has been very good at communicating with me. They have accommodating in my requests. I really don't have any complaints besides the price but that's goes for any of them so they are not unique. His room is adequate, I was thinking it's a bit small. Upon further reflection I prefer a bit smaller with that population as the more room there is the more places to loose or rathole things. So it's adequate to accommodate what he needs and isn't cramped.

Staff very considerate and helpful. Community health staff very good and ready to help when needed to coordinate with emergency transport when needed.. The only real change to consider after speaking with my in-laws, who are residents at the community would be to broaden the dinner menus. Don’t need fancy things like shrimp and scallop linguine more of the basics. Maybe mix a little more pork and beef dishes. The age group was raised on what we call comfort food.

The best thing about the facility itself is the open concept at the entry. It is more like a cruise ship with lots of windows - bright and airy. The dining room is open continuously until 630pm and not closed off like other places. It is a very pleasant environment. The only downside is that, like a lot of places, there is a lot of staff turnover and some care givers are better than others. Overall, however, the atmosphere is very positive and the residents seem to get along together.

Very friendly staff and residents. Definitely has a community feel. Staff turnover has been high though. I would recommend MorningStar of Hillsboro to others.

Great experience!! Excellent experienced staff..

The staff is always in contact me. They are so kind to me and my father. He stays very busy there and I love that. The activities there have helped him create friendships which is good because he is very social. He seems so happy. I would absolutely recommend Morningstar to others!

I like the indoor saltwater pool, the gym and the fact they have an on-site physical therapist the most. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming (residents and staff). We have a great life enriching group as well and they are very focused on providing lots of varied activities. I like the food the least, since this is independent only they don't really focus (in my opinion) a healthy choice for food, not much of a choice of vegetables.

Note that the 3 on #8 is related to the memory care services. This is a much smaller section of Morning Star and I believe l the costs related to running a top notch assisted living center impact memory care. I recently moved my father to another facility which is 100% memory care and a smaller facility. It saves me thousands annually for similar if not better care.

I would definitely recommend Morningstar of Kirkland to others. The staff is super friendly. It is a nice little community and the people that live there are really nice and concerned about each other.

All are 15....... the staff goes way up and beyond...It is truly the best place ever. The staff there actually care about their people and spend time with them. The facility is so clean.

The caregivers seem to be educated about how to handle someone with Alzheimer’s. They are very compassionate and caring. They keep my husband’s room, clothing, and bedding clean. The facility has no bad odors and is very clean.

I was very pleased with the care that my loved one received there. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The facility was delightfully decorated and his needs met.

We absolutely live MorningStar of Wheat Ridge! We can't say enough about the facility and the staff. Just amazing. Everything one could hope for.
