Residents and their families say:

This community receives a mix of praise and criticism from its reviewers. Many reviewers are pleased with the care and services provided, noting the excellent staff, phenomenal food, and the comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. Special mention is made of the attentive and caring nature of the staff who go out of their way to accommodate residents' needs, making the transition for new residents smooth and ensuring families feel secure with their loved ones in the community. Activities, celebrations, and the effort to make the community feel like home are highly appreciated. The staff, from cleaning and dining to the administrative team, is regularly commended for their dedication and friendliness.

However, there are concerns, particularly regarding the Memory Care Unit, described by one reviewer as underwhelming, with assistants more focused on their phones than on resident care, leading to high turnover rates. Another criticism involves cleanliness and inconsistencies in policies on amenities like bathroom tissue. While these negative opinions are in the minority, they highlight areas for potential improvement. Additionally, some reviewers found the cost for certain services, such as Dementia care, to be on the higher side. Yet, on balance, many families and residents express gratitude and satisfaction with the care and community spirit at Morningside, especially appreciating the secure, friendly, and engaging environment it offers to its residents.
