MorningStar Senior Living at The Canyons provides assisted-living services designed to meet day-to-day needs while addressing specific medical requirements. Residents can receive short-term respite care, targeted diabetes management that includes monitoring and dietary oversight, and on-site sessions with a speech therapist. Care staff are available around the clock, and licensed nurses oversee care plans to keep each resident’s medical profile current.
Beyond direct clinical supports, the community helps with medication administration, mobility assistance, and regular health assessments. Coordination with outside physicians, pharmacies, and rehabilitation providers is handled by the care team to minimize family logistics. The staff maintains communication with families and tracks changes in condition so adjustments to care plans happen quickly.
Apartments and common areas are set up to simplify daily living. Options may include wheelchair-accessible showers, central air conditioning, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and utilities bundled into monthly fees. Some residences have balconies, patios, or decks, while select common spaces feature a central fireplace, billiards lounge, and outdoor areas for fresh air. Parking and pet-friendly units are available, but not every accommodation offers every feature, so prospective residents should confirm specifics during a visit.
Dining focuses on balanced nutrition and choice. A professional chef prepares restaurant-style meals with all-day dining availability and guest meal options. Menus include international dishes, vegetarian selections, low-sodium and no-sugar recipes to support medical diets, and standard meals for general preferences. The culinary team collaborates with clinical staff to accommodate individualized nutrition plans tied to diabetes care or other health considerations.
Residents have access to an activity center, outdoor pool, indoor and outdoor walking paths, raised garden beds, and a library with a computer lounge. Scheduled programs range from fitness classes, yoga or chair yoga, and Live Well wellness sessions to arts and crafts, karaoke, educational speakers, and reminiscence groups. Clubs, social outings, holiday events, and a variety of on-site activities support engagement and community life.
