MorningStar Senior Living

We chose Merrill Gardens because of the staff members, they were very helpful, open and giving. I would tell others to just make sure to go in and meet the staff, it is really the people who make all the difference in a facility. They know my mom by name and my name, the care is is very personalized. I would absolutely recommend them.

We thought Balfour Longmont was a really good option. But as far as the rooms went, their rooms were smaller and they had less options than the facility we ended up choosing.

This community was a really nice place. The location was just to far for us and we needed family to be able to get to our loved one easier. The other community we went with just allowed for easier access to our loved one.

I have made so many friendships here in the last six months. I have all kinds of friends now, and I don't eat alone anymore. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner I eat with freinds. It's just a very friendly pace. I have a dog, and they have a little park here for dogs, which my dog appreciates. I think my apartment is great. It's very expensive, but I can afford it, and I know I can't take my money with me, so I'm going to spend it. Housekeeping is included, and they do an average job. I find dust sometimes, but they do clean the bathrooms and kitchens really well. We have to wash our own sheets, but if we lay them out, housekeeping will put the clean sheets on the bed for us, which I really appreciate it.

I like the community, but no availability at the time of the tour.

I think this has been good community. It is new and clean. They have nice open spaces, such as a courtyard. They have engaging activities for the residents to use, and enough space for the residents to spread out and do their own thing.

This was a nice community.

It is an excellent, caring community that is clean. They have nice staff. The staff are responsive to any my questions or concerns. There have been games, singing, movies, and more for the residents to choose from for activities.

MorningStar of Boulder is wonderful. My older sister is happy and she is being well cared for by everyone at MorningStar Boulder. She is treated kindly and with respect, and she feels tended to and cared for while maintaining a sense of independence and dignity. At MorningStar Boulder, it's the people who make the difference. From the front desk, to the customer service and sales people, medical and nursing staff, caregivers, cleaning and maintenance folks, the chef, kitchen, and dining staff -- everyone is fantastic. It is professional care and also feels like family. People truly care about every aspect of what they do to help others, and to my sister, and to me and my family, that makes all the difference.

We toured this community and the tour was very good. They answered all of our questions and were very informative. They were very accommodating and the staff was very helpful and friendly.

The food is amazing and they will work with you for specific diets and are really open to feedback. The community is neat and clean and the staff is so friendly and helpful. They are proactive and their communication is very good. The community has independent, assisted, and memory care.

My mother lived at Morningstar (Idaho Falls) for nearly six years. She always enjoyed the outings and special events that were available to residents. She especially loved the live entertainment that is available for residents and sometimes performed the musicians. About a year ago, she moved to the memory care unit where she was an active participant in most activities. She always had post it even comments about the staff and facilities. Since the onset of Covid, the staff frequently contacted myself and other family members to keep us appraised of happenings and health issues. The Reflections staff is the best in the business.

The staff at MorningStar were amazing. Each and every one of the medical and caregivers went above and beyond to make my moms stay pleasant. We could not have been happier we brought her there.

The community is doing really great work. I am very pleased with my mom's care

We chose Morningstear because of the cleanliness, friendliness of staff members, and the level of care that they were able to provide. We looked at 8 or 9 places and it was actually not the most expensive yet we feel we got the best bang for the buck. My mother was here about 6 weeks and the 2 ladies that took care of her got very close to her and really cared for her. I would recommend to others looking.

The community has a lot of activities available for the residents. I would recommend the community again for others for their loved ones. My loved one loves the nurses and the community has easy access for the residents and families.

We chose MorningStar because of the kind of care that they provided for the cost, they have a chef that cooks all of their meals, and also they said they had a huge amount of activities available for residents. There are activities everyday, but not to the extent that they had said so they could use improvement on that. But she is receiving amazing care and we are really happy with that. They are great with communication as well. I would recommend to others looking.

My mother has been a resident of Morningstar for a year and a half. The staff has cared for her as if she was family. I’m so grateful to [name removed] and [name removed] in particular for their wisdom, support, and compassionate hearts. Our entire experience has been during the Covid time and I daily thank God my mother has such a safe and caring environment. The residents have an abundance of activities, easily accessible transportation, special treats, and the food is good! If anyone desires the best for their loved one, Morningstar in Sparks is the place to take them.

My mother moved into MorningStar Assisted Living 3 1/2 months ago. She stated she is very happy here and "You couldn't find a better place". The staff is compassionate. Needs are quickly addressed by management. It's obvious they care. I should add that the facility is beautiful, the meals are great and she enjoys the many activities. Although my brother and I are still very involved in her life, the family rests better knowing mom has the help she needs.

Current top choice. Beautiful, new facility. Studio apartments available are very nice with high ceilings, good light, big windows. 56 total AL units with 36 occupied. Current special is $20 initial fee (normally $2500) and 2nd month rent free.
