Helpful and caring!

We moved my father here from independent living when he needed assisted-living. He was there for three months (before passing) and they were great! They were awesome at getting to know him, helping him as his needs changed, and truly loving on him. We had great communication with them for his needs. We couldn’t have asked for a better place for the last few months of his life.

my 6 month experience was mixed

Staff turnover is discouragingly high. Food is tasty but not really healthy. Daily activities tend to be organized and run by residents not staff. I experienced serious billing errors. Residents are friendly and welcoming. Facility is attractive throughout.

Morningstar River Oaks - Memory Care

Morningstar was a very different experience than competitors in memory care. The facility is light, bright, open, and has a design conducive for memory care residents. On top of that the staff is caring, engaged and attentive. Residents participate in a variety of activities including outings on a regular basis. And the food was varied to keep meals interesting avoiding food fatigue. I toured 14 facilities in houston before finding MorningStar and am very pleased with my choice. I would highly recommend. It is pricey, one of the top 3 costs, but if you can manage it, it’s been worth the expense for our Mother. Yes, there are things that need some improvement but those are minor in comparison to the quality of care residents receive here.

Highly recommend - excellent staff and professional care!

They were very caring and considerate. Unfortunately. My mother didn't live long enough to take advantage of all the amenities but she was very much looking forward to it. Your caring staff made a priceless difference in the final months of her life.

My experience with Morningstar

Those on my list were easy to arrange for a visit - Morningstar called me to set up my appointment. I was in independent living when I feel down and broke my knee cap. They immediately shifted me to an assisted living appointment and got me assistance in managing my care.

Review for MorningStar of Pasadena

The best place any senior could be at. The staff is very attentive, polite and helpful at all times. She is given her medication and checked by a nurse every day. The food is good, they have a variation of entertainment every week. There is a trip to the store every week and fun day out too.

great memory care

My comments relate to the memory care section specifically. The facility and grounds are well kept. It is always clean and smells clean. Staff is great and there isn't much turnover. Lots of activities to keep them engaged. My mom has been there for a year and hasn't complained about anything. The only negative comment I have is one time they sent her out for medical care and they didn't let me know as the POA and I live out of state. They have some newer admin staff in the section and they now offer monthly feedback meetings with family members which is good. They seem interested in continuous improvement and not just the status quo.

Beautiful new home for mom

We were impressed as soon as we walked thru the doors of Morning Star. We had an interview with [name removed] set up by A Place for mom. She was very kind and pleasant. She took us on a tour of the facility and were able to see a 2 bedroom room since that was what we were looking for. We were invited back to bring my mom and her husband for Easter Brunch which was a nice introduction for them to see the facility, they were taken on a tour as well. [name removed] arranged for mom And her husband to visit an existing couple with the same floor plan. My parents were impressed with the people we met, the food, the theater, the salon, the entertainment that was scheduled in the monthly calendar. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I personally liked the safety features of morning Star, they have a button in their apartment they push in the morning to notify the staff they are up and accounted for. They have a daily event list outside their door. I can’t say enough about [name removed] help and guidance.

Good experience for respite care

The staff were very friendly and helpful. When we arrived to check in they met us at the door and made introductions to staff and residents who were there. They were very responsive to our questions and concerns. The first evening we were there we had several family members who came down to visit and they were very accommodating. They made an effort to get my wife involved in activities. The facilities were well maintained and clean. The food options were great. Overall we were very pleased with our experience there.

Top class facility

My step father was only there for a short time before he passed away. The staff was excellent and made his passing very easy for everyone. They took very good care of him. When the coroner took him out the door, the staff was lined up against the wall of the exit to say good bye. It looked like everyone who wasn't busy was there to pay respect. I will never forget that and will always be a cherished memory.

Overall a nice community

Staff was very accommodating when you brought up issues. They were very supportive through in home hospice care. They had great afternoon music and happy hours. Crafts were hit or miss due to transition in staff. Leadership knew and cared about the residents. This place was the most reasonable for someone near end of life who needed more assistance but not skilled care.
