MorningStar Senior Living

Very nice place; they had a cute dog; fresh baked cookies every morning; sales lady was very helpful and asked me lots of question about what we needed. this place is on my 'short list' so i may come back to it.

Beautiful! Just a little pricey. Loved Sue B. loved the accommodations. Rent and medication monitoring very high.

My dad is at Fair Oaks. It's great. My father's comment after he'd been there for a couple days was this place is as nice as some of the nicer hotels he's been in - and he's been all over! it's the nicest place I've ever seen. We like everything about it. It's really a beautiful place. The décor is beautiful. The food is really good. My dad likes the food and so do I. I've had a couple of meals there. The common areas are fantastic. Every floor has it's own separate kitchen with a big cooking/eating area. They have a pool table and great seating areas a beautiful movie screening room with high backed chairs that seats 40 or 50 people. They have libraries on every floor and a spa. They have a couple of outdoor areas - one has a nice bbq seating area. It's great! There is no move in fee! They applied the deposit toward the firs two months and they had furnishings in the rooms - mirror, chest of draws, table. It's like a big hotel room, about 400 sq ft.

1st Tour Very nice. 23 min. from my house. Arlene (tour guide) was awesome. Very clean. Nice sized studio. Christian based facility. Assisted living - Very expensive. Base price is $4,000. Memory Care - Very, Very Expensive!

Very nice, clean, friendly, informative. Lots of activities & things to do.

first choice so far

We really liked this place, but it was just too far away. The staff was awesome in the way they interacted w/the clients. If they were putting on a show it was a darn good one.

Loved this place and so did my mother-in-law. It is probably our 1st choice at this point.

We are so happy with this facility. It's specialized (memory care), which can be a challenge, but they really are on top of things and run things very well! I can't say enough good things. I haven't had a single negative experience here. The care has been amazing. The cost is high, but the care is unbeatable. And it's a flat monthly fee, no extra charges. They do a deep clean of the rooms weekly and tidy up daily. It's always clean. The food is good, they take requests and accommodate them. They serve lots of fruits and vegetables. Everyone eats together in the dining room. They also provide/deliver 2 snacks a day. Everyone here is on a first name basis. The residents, the staff, even the visitors. My husband even said to me "Everybody seems to know me and know who I am here." It's just wonderful. The staff is so loving and caring. They have RNs on every shift. One thing that is very important to me is safety and they are absolutely on top of that here. If my husband gets up to use the restroom in the middle of the night, the nurses hear him and go check on him to make sure he's ok and ask if he needs anything. They always know where he is, also. If I go to visit and he's not in his room, the nurses are always able to tell me where he is (physical therapy, ect). Maintenance even pops in and asks if we need anything done. Communication with the family is excellent! The activities director is wonderful and tries very hard. They go room to room and encourage the residents to participate in the activities and offer to help them walk to the activity (games, painting, etc). They have a barbershop/beautyshop and in house Physical Therapy. They do offer cameras for the rooms to help monitor, but we decided we didn't need that. They're so on top of things even without one! They are in the middle of doing major upgrades (carpet, flooring, light fixtures, furniture, nurses stations) and dealing with supply and demand issues. That said, they still keep things as clean as they absolutely can and it's going to be beautiful when they're done. I would absolutely recommend them to friends and family!

I really like the dining room and the way the meals are presented. Residents have more of a restaurant experience. The apartments and finishes are exceptional. The staff overall is also exceptional.

We toured several other community like more then 10 other communities and this was the only one where we saw the staff actually interacting with the residents. It doesn't seem like they are there just to earn a paycheck and go home. This community has just really stood out amongst others. It is very clean and the staff are incredibly friendly. Our loved one is very social and mot of the staff have really gotten to know him which has made him really happy. Based on our experience so far we would recommend the MorningStar community to others.

We went with MorningStar because of the convenient location and the fact that she could go get food at anytime. They do not have set meal times which we really liked. If you have a loved one with memory issues they are on top of things. My loved one is in assisted living and she got out one time and did not check out and they noticed right away and were on top of it. I would recommend to others looking.

We absolutely would recommend the MorningStar Senior Living community to other families. We love living there and the other residents living there are awesome.

We chose MorningStar because I liked the attitude of the staff members, it is a newer facility, and it is also convenient to my home. The staff are very friendly and they do try really hard. I would recommend to others who are looking.

the community is very clean and the staff is very friendly, the community has changed hands and there has been turnover. before covid, the dining was very good. I would definitely recommend this community to others

My parents live at MorningStar of Fountain Hills. I can't say enough about this community and the staff. They are polite, loving, and attentive. My mom can be difficult at times, but she loves living there and the staff treat her like a queen. Mom loves the activities, even through Covid, and dad just loves to be along side her. Thank you to everyone at MorningStar.

With everything COVID related, I think Morningstar Arrowhead has done a fabulous job with assisting my parents - one in Assisted Living and the other in Memory Care. I have found the administration to be very good at communicating and the same with the staff. I have been very pleased at the level of care my parents are receiving.

The staff is professional and caring. Their follow up on my Dad’s situation, before moving into the facility, was excellent along with the communication and organization of all the details. Although my Dad’s medical situation changed, so he did not ultimately move into MorningStar, they continued to genuinely care about his condition and how they could help me get the best solution for his needs. I would highly recommend them to care for your loved one.

My family moved my Dad in here at the end of 2019. He was having memory issues and has early dementia. He is doing great. Everyone one at Morning Star seems to really care for him and make him feel at home. The facility is small and compared to all the others we looked at feels more like a nice hotel then a assisted living facility. During this covid 19 they really step up to help fill in for all the stuff we as his family can’t do. The place is very friendly and super clean. This transition is hard but I think this was the best choice we could have.
