Key Review Excerpts
“I researched quite a few facilities before selecting this one and moving a parent into memory care on 8 Oct. When visiting the facility, talking with current residents, residents' families, and staff, it's clear that there is LIFE here.”
“Taking someone with Alzheimer's to a facility is the hardest decision to make. Mom was resistant but they made her feel at home quickly and surrounded her with love, warmth, activities, attention.”
“Our father was in Memory Care at Morningstar at Mountain Shadows for 6 months before his passing. He received wonderful care. I would highly recommend having your loved one at Morningstar. Management and staff were attentive to his needs as well as ours. Communication was great.”
