A Place for Mom has scored MorningStar Senior Living with 8.6 out of 10 using our proprietary review score based on 280 reviews in the last 2 years. Over all time, MorningStar Senior Living has 937 reviews with an average "overall experience" of 4.3 out of 5.
I would advise you watch and determine the facility and staff and do not rely on reports of their loved ones. Staff is conscientious, caring and professional. Facility is clean, nurturing and well equipped. It must always be remembered those clients in residence are confused, scared and/or feel abandoned to strangers. It is highly unlikely the loved's report, though the truth in their opinion, is accurate and unbiased.

The main reason I moved my mom was MorningStar doesn't accept Title 19 if it should become necessary. I feel she will be financially okay for the next few years but no one knows how long she has -so I didn't want to wait till it was a necessity that she had to move. As far as the food - I know everyone was told they could ordered anything they wanted, but I had lunch several times with mom and what I seen was everyone getting the daily special, not a lot of seasoning or taste to the meals.

The whole facility, including all the common areas, is quite clean and always smells good. My mom gave it a 4 only because the cleaning people seem to ignore my Dad's floor in his room.) My dad requires a lot of extra care due to his left side paralysis from the stroke. For this reason, someone with such extreme loss of autonomy might do better in a facility where they have a higher level of care. Having said that, they do pretty darn good. The food is not home cooked and my Dad is used to my mom's exceptional cooking. That's a pretty high standard. Morning Star is impressive. The common areas are wonderful. The entertainment and activities are wonderful. They take care to decorate for all the holidays extravagantly. And, the location of MorningStar is outstanding. Fountain Hills has all kinds of fun to be had within walking distance or, if you're in a wheelchair, within pushing distance: excellent restaurants, all kinds of festivals and parades, and the beautiful park with all its amenities.

We brought in Hospice to increase his care. He has dementia and does not attend many activities. We are fortunate to be able to afford the cost. That being said it is a nice safe place for him. We have had dad there one and a half years and have already witnessed approximately a 10 percent increase in normal costs. His care costs have increased because of the need the other increases I guess are just a sign of the times. Everything is getting more expensive.

There were a few instances where the cleaners weren't changing the sheets each week like they say they do. And I'm really not happy that they discontinued the laundry service for the independent side. The quality of the food is excellent, but service can be very slow some days. Faculty and staff have all been very friendly and helpful

It is a smaller facility, which my Dad likes. He knows everyone there. The food is not the greatest and he complains about it. The staff is always very nice and friendly. We have had a few problems with the Caregivers. There's been a couple that were not very nice, but once talked to have been better. Housekeeping is great. It is always clean. Communication with the family is fine, but could be better. The move in process was so nice. They came and picked up my Dad's things and moved them in for us. This was included in the cost. It was a very stressful time, so that helped a lot. I would recommend others to go here. I think as a family member you need to stay involved and know what is going on.

This place has been under renovation. They are still working on the kitchen but all new furniture. My first two weeks were not great. Non existent orientation. Things have improved. I take Gene on Fridays to the main building for music. He seems mostly content. Very few residents can communicate in the lock down area which is sad. In my mind the small house was very mediocre. I would not be happy going there to visit him. The room they showed me had no private bath and it was the same price. Probably they focus on Medicaid. Did not look at other places. It is a quick trip for me to Morningstar. His room is very nice.

They just increased monthly 10k a month for memory care. They do have church and communion. They sit and watch TV in the main room most of the time. Have difficulty getting her compression socks. Employee turnover seems high. But the people I regularly see are kind.

MorningStar is a beautiful facility with a capable and responsive staff. The memory care (called the "Reflections Community") rooms are extremely nice compared to those I saw in other facilities. Everything is modern and there is a lot of natural light because of the large windows. Each room has its own full-size refrigerator with a freezer, which is very convenient and helpful. The food is very good with a nice variety, and residents can choose from the menu ahead of time if they don't like the regularly offered meals for the day. Memory care residents would benefit with more help in selecting a menu for the day, and from a slightly revised process for "opting out" of the regular meals and choosing their food for the day. The move in process was good, but it could have been improved with a more robust orientation process and a dedicated staff person that would touch base regularly with the resident and family throughout the first two weeks. Resident care has been very good, but some things (i.e., showers) haven't always taken place on the assigned days because of staffing or other issues. That being said, memory care residents are a particularly challenging population, and I have been impressed with the caring staff and the overall environment of the "Reflections Community" at MorningStar, which after two months still feels very welcoming and friendly. I am grateful that my dad has such a safe and comfortable place to live at MorningStar. I would definitely recommend MorningStar at Laurelhurst.

My dad entered memory care at Morning Star in 2023. Either my mom or I was with him daily. So we spent many hours there. Morning Star is a beautiful facility. It looks clean and smells clean. However, it doesn't appear they have enough staff for all of the people in memory care. Because we were always there, we made sure my dad had what he needed. Many people don't have visitors and it seems they can be put in front of the tv very easily. The regular staff is amazing. [names removed] are angels. But weekends are short handed and nurses were often on staff that we didn't know. Generally they do a wonderful job, but there are certainly stand out people working there. Like any senior center, I'd recommend that you show up for your loved one because things can be overlooked. My dad passed away in November of 2023, and I believe he was happy there.

The staff were wonderful towards the end of my mom's life. They gave us lots of hugs & seemed to truly care about my mom & us. There just weren't enough of them (under-staffed in general). And the hospice that we went with was fantastic & worked well with the staff.

It was an amazing facility. I don't think I can really say anything bad about it, except for they need to have better communication with the aides. I don't feel like some of them were properly trained on basic CNA skills. We had to put a camera in my loved one's room to keep an eye on her and to make sure that the aides did their job. The nurses and the rest of the staff were all friendly and helpful.

Overall I'm very happy that my parents live there! Not only is it convenient for my house but I feel like they're in a safe happy environment. The people are what really make it special and although the food can improve a little bit overall it's decent and sometimes great! The food is ok. Some days better than others. Gone thru 2 chefs since last April. Now dishwasher is broken earring in paper plates last 2 weeks. Some good items great others not. prices went up 10% this year which is a lot for ppl on fixed income. They have great entertainment! I love how caring and friendly the staff and residents are. Really liked the open feeling and choice of small or large dining room. Super friendly caring staff. The location is great.
