MorningStar Senior Living

Our family had an in person tour and MorningStar is a beautiful facility and they had a lot of great touches regarding their activities

This has been a huge improvement from where my loved one was at. The care staff and meals are so much better and this is making a huge difference for my loved one. There are choices for the residents to choose from for meals. The staff communication with the family has been good. Overall, it is so much better than our previous experience with another community.

They were short staffed, whis is my only issue. The food was good but again, they were short staffed, so it was a matter of dad getting hot meals. As far as activities, they have outings, movie night, game night, and performers came during Christmas. It is expensive but overall very clean, safe, and they have a lot of activities.

Good place nice courtyard close to family.

Our first impression of MorningStar Senior Living was just how nice it is. Overall it is a good value for the money and based on our experience so far we would recommend them to other families.

Food is excellent. In dining they cater to the individuals taste and needs.

They are having a hard time finding someone to drive the van so they are going shopping for us, they are trying their best to find someone though. They will personally drive us to church on Sundays and are being really accommodating while they figure it out. The activities are wonderful and they have a lot to offer. I love that there is a lot of wildlife to look at, the setting is in the trees so it is peaceful. We are also very close to the Japanese tea garden, grocery stores, shopping etc. so the location is great. The apartment sizes are slightly bigger than some others that I looked at. I would absolutely recommend Casa Sandoval to others looking.

The staff members have been so great to work with they really make it feel like home and they do their absolute best to keep our loved one comfortable and healthy. Our loved one absolutely loves the meals and dining service. We loved it right away it was a first great impression and a great choice. The community is beautiful and new and our loed one has able to bring their dog in finally!

This community is well managed, clean professional and friendly. The staff are very caring as well. They have activities like live music, crafts, work outs and more for the residents to do to keep busy in the community.

I love that I have my own garage and washer and dryer, that is a huge plus. I do understand the struggles with the staffing shortages so it is not entirely their fault, but they could work to improve on the quality of the meals and the repetitiveness.

My mom loves it here at Morningstar Senior Living. For us, the location is very ideal. It is close to our home so it is easy to get to her and we can get there quickly if need be. It is surrounded by a lot of other places as well so if she wants to go out she can do so. They do offer independent and assisted living which is nice in case she needs that type of care down the road. Overall we would recommend this facility to others looking.

MorningStar has a great staff who are very respectful of the elderly and compassionate

I would advise to check out a few more places for your loved one to find a community. The staff that are here some of them are excellent and some of them are not so good. They have very few specific activities for memory care and majority of the activities are for assisted living unit. Every now and they they will include the memory care unity but not often.

We chose MorningStar because the location was important to us and we were impressed with the facility after our tour. The 2 bedroom apartments are very roomy and comfortable. The rooms over on the memory care side are a little small, but they want the residents to be out and about and not in their rooms. He complains about the food quite a bit and he is says there is no flavor, so they could use some improvements on that. Overall I would recommend to others who are looking.

From what I could see on the virtual tour, MorningStar of Boulder was very nice. It was just farther away than I wanted to be.

For the most part we're pretty happy. When I give them feedback on what I'd like to see with memory care residents, they don't really make any changes. But they do a good job with cleanliness. I like that they try to keep it open to visitors, even though the pandemic has made that difficult. They have had some outbreaks, but they don't restrict visitors. I think that's really important, because the outcome is disastrous to the residents if they don't get to see their families. We had a couple of issues at first. In memory care unit, they have 20 residents and 2-3 staff to care for them. The staff would be taking their breaks at the same time and acting unprofessionally. I did talk to the director, and that has improved. But I just feel like they shouldn't be having frequent down time since there's always something that can be done for the residents.

I would advise to give this community a try. It seems like it is a decent place for your loved one. The staff were good with my loved one and the interactions were good. No issues.
