About MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care of Fountain Hills

from Oasis Senior Advisors

MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care of Fountain Hills offers a range of care types tailored to meet the diverse needs of its residents. The facility provides assisted living and specialized memory care services, ensuring that seniors receive the support necessary for day-to-day activities. This includes comprehensive medical care for residents with specific requirements such as wandering tendencies, elopement risks, behavioral issues, and conditions related to advanced dementia. The availability of trained medical professionals, including an RN/LPN on staff and a 24-hour nurse on site, ensures that residents can access medical assistance whenever needed. The facility supports advanced care needs, including wound care, oxygen management, and diet modifications, offering a holistic approach to senior living.

In addition to the standard assisted living services, MorningStar offers specialized support for a wide range of medical challenges. Residents can receive full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, with various transfer services available for those with mobility limitations. Safety measures, such as background checks, 24-hour security, and wander guards, ensure a secure environment for all residents, especially those with cognitive challenges. The facility’s commitment to providing focused care includes accepting psychiatric issues and assisting residents under 60 years old, ensuring that everyone is provided for with dignity and respect.

The accommodations at MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care include a variety of features designed to enhance the comfort and independence of each resident. Rooms typically come furnished and may include kitchenettes, private bathrooms, and independent temperature controls, enabling personalization through painting or decorating. Scheduled laundry services and in-unit laundry facilities add convenience to daily living. While these features are standard, not all accommodations will have the same attributes, allowing for different preferences and needs to be met. Additionally, for residents in independent living, housekeeping, monthly meal plans, laundry services, and medication management monitoring are available to ensure a seamless lifestyle.

Residing at MorningStar provides access to a wide array of amenities tailored for both recreational and practical needs. Residents enjoy communal spaces such as a movie room, exercise room, library, and special interest clubs, promoting an engaging community atmosphere. Outdoor spaces like communal gardens offer a pleasant setting for relaxation, while on-site religious services cater to spiritual needs. For convenience, amenities such as a barber/beauty shop, transportation services, and resident parking are readily available. The facility is wheelchair accessible and allows smoking outside. As pets are allowed, it's a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.

Residents and their families say:

This community enjoys overwhelmingly positive feedback from its residents and their families, firmly establishing it as a beloved environment brimming with care, activities, and comfort. Many praise the broad array of engaging activities available to residents, ensuring a vibrant, fulfilling social life. The staff's compassion and dedication receive high marks, with a consistent theme of treating residents with respect, kindness, and patience. The quality of care, including the attention to personal needs and medical oversight, reassures families that their loved ones are in good hands. The facility itself is commended for its cleanliness, beautiful grounds, and well-kept living spaces, making it a comfortable and inviting place to live. The food also generally gets a nod for its taste and variety, adding to the overall satisfaction with the services provided.

However, not all feedback is without critique. A recurring point of dissatisfaction among a minority of reviews pertains to the quality of food, suggesting room for improvement in this area. Another note for potential enhancement is the call for more outdoor activities, which could enrich the already dynamic program of events. Despite these points, the community stands out for its skilled and heartwarming staff who go above and beyond in fostering a nurturing and safe environment. The combination of excellent facilities, a plethora of activities, and a compassionate approach to care underscores the community's commitment to providing a joyful and supportive home for its residents.
