MorningStar Senior Living

The experience has been fantastic every step of the way, and she's extremely happy living there. Staff and other residents go above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome and secure.

The facility is super clean and doesn't smell like some of the others do. It's quiet and the other residents greeted my dad immediately. We would absolutely recommend this community to other families based on the experience so far. Best independent living in Idaho Falls

I think I would give a 5 rating for each of the categories. Very pleased with the facility. My father is in the facility, he is rather picky about food. He says the food is good and likes the menu. He has participated in some exercise classes and enjoys talking with other people during meals. He has only been there for about 6 weeks now but he is hoping my mother will be joining him soon. The staff has shown him kindness, patience and respect. It was not an easy transition for him.

I've been very pleasantly impressed with this facility and the staff. And Mom loves the food and activities. Assisted living and memory care apartments are identical. And the memory care area is bright and airy. I liked knowing the memory care area was as nice as assisted living; just in case. The facility also feels like a large home. Very inviting.

I visited my dad twice a day every day he lived there [dates removed] until his death at the age of 94, so I was able to experience first hand all aspects of the facility and care. The Reflections Community staff at MorningStar Laurelhurst were dedicated and very helpful, and they cared for the residents with compassionate professionalism. There was a fairly wide range of cognitive and memory impairment in the Reflections Community, so it wasn’t easy serving all the needs of the residents. But, my dad received quality care, and the staff was always very responsive to my questions and requests. The accommodations at MorningStar were very attractive and pleasant, and the entire facility was really a beautiful place- much nicer than most of the other facilities I toured. I would definitely feel comfortable recommending MorningStar at Laurelhurst to anyone seeking memory care for a loved one.

I looked at several and MSBC ranked the highest and still does. Most places struggle with keeping good employees, probably due to low salaries and long hours. Care for individuals with memory issues is wearing and frustrating. Morningstar suffers from this same issue. Weekend care is never as good as weekday care, due to lack of adequate staff. MSBC has several dedicated and qualified staff, but always needs more.

My spouse has been here for 5 months. I am pleased with his care and monitoring of his health. Staff is loving/great, the facilities are kept up to date and clean. I would recommend Morningstar to other without hesitation.

It is a great place with fun activities and wonderful happy people. Contact me if you want. Love we have a large apt 2 bedroom two bath and a large garage. The people in the facility are very nice. Highly recommend.

I'm so pleased that I haven't had any need to consider moving her. The facility is nicely maintained, well-run, and the staff in memory care is amazing. It's a little on the pricey side, but worth it.

We were able spend the night there, eat 3 meals, meet several residents and observe some of their activities.

On the food they seem to complain a lot, but I think that's true of a lot of facilities and a lot of residents they like comfort food and the facilities like to feed them healthy food. Most assisted living costs are very high. But I like Golden Ridge because it's always clean and doesn't smell musty or smell like a excuse me for saying this nursing home.

Caring, clean, consistent. Yes I would recommend but it is very expensive.

Morningstar is great! Morningstar is a very welcoming environment. At mealtimes, they often put the tables together so that people can easily get to know each other and foster an inclusive environment. My mom made many friends at Morningstar and quickly adapted.

I can't say enough good things about MorningStar. They took great care of my father. They were in touch with me often. The staff is very caring. We would absolutely recommend MorningStar at Arrowhead to other families!

The others had less facilities/activities or were just assisted/memory care facilities. I would recommend to others.

Great place. Lots of activities for Seniors! They have a veterans group. They provide great care. [name removed] and [name removed] are very warm and welcoming! Great ratio of caretakers to residents. Resident [name removed] will greet you and open the door! Highly recommend.

Will be moving my father into Jordan in just a few weeks. Had a tour with [name removed] and she was really wonderful. I also met the wellness team [name removed], [name removed]and [name removed]. They do a wonderful job and are available 24 seven if you really need them they go the extra mile to make sure that the residents feel welcomed and loved this truly is a community. I also chose this community because it is smaller. I feel like my father will be able to walk to the dining room independently instead of walking down long hallways in those gigantic hotel like assisted living communities

The people at Morningstar are amazing! They treat their residents with respect, dignity and love. The food is really good, and families are able to share a meal with their loved one at any time. I NEVER thought my Mother would EVER be happy in an assisted living facility, but her stay at Morningstar has been nothing but positive. Did I mention that the staff are amazing? I never have to worry about Mom. I know she is being taken care of and looked after by people that truly care about her and her wellbeing. This place truly earns and deserves my five stars.

Had a tour with [name removed] and [name removed]. She was warm and introduced me to the team. I trust that they are going to take care of my mom. Excited for my mother to move in so we can have our relationship back, it’s time for me to stop being a care giver

My mom passed in July but was at the facility for 2 1/2 years. Very happy with the care. The Activity Director made it the best possible experience for us but she has since left.
