our family's experience

[name removed], the Director, was a true gift from the Lord. She walked with us through every stage- even transitioning out of Morningside into a a new facility. We also had the sweetest relationship with his nurse, [name removed]. She provided excellent, personal care and communicated so well. We actually enjoyed every member of the staff. The facility was clean and well run, the food was delicious. We will always be grateful that Sammi and Morningside were our first experience with assisted living.

Very caring facility

Realizing all the different personalities they deal with, you can never make everybody happy. I felt like they always did their best to keep my mom happy. They are very caring people.

Definitely would recommend

It was a great experience. I wish my mom could have stayed longer. The staff was WONDERFUL with her. The only reason she left is because we decided it was better for her to be in the same state as me, her only child. She was too far away.

Thankful for this community!

I don't have a good baseline for value for cost however, we love [name removed] the director. She is why we are there- she is kind, patient, knowledgeable, and a great communicator. Yes, we would recommend Morningside to other families! We would not have made it through [name removed] transition without [name removed] and her team.

My review of Morningside of Decatur

Our experience has been great from the start, the week our loved one had to move in she had a full and spend a week in a nursing home. The community worked so well with our schedule, they held our loved ones room and when it was time to move our loved one in they really helped facilitate everything. Our loved one had adjusted very well there, they take great care of her, and she is really like it.

Great Home Away From Home

My mom has been at Morningside for a little over 2 months. She is a very shy person. However, since she has been at Morningside she has flourished. She is in contact with other residents throughout the day. She absolutely loves sitting in the rockers on the front porch area. She has a great apartment and seems to be better, emotionally and physically, in this short period of time. I have met the staff and would recommend them to anyone. These people love what they do and pet these residents as if they were all their mother or daddy. I am so thankful that my mom is here. Should I come to the point of needing this type living situation, I will certainly join her there!! Here is a shout out to all the staff, nurses, cooks, everyone......THANK YOU for sharing your love and care with my mom!

Nice respite stay!

My mom was here for a respite stay. She was very happy while she was there and she said would gladly go back. She liked the staff, they were very caring and helpful. They provided activities for the residents and encouraged them to participate. My mom really enjoyed playing Bingo. Mom is a picky eater who doesn't eat much, and she didn't care for the salads. They accommodated her with alternatives such as sandwiches which suited her just fine. The community has homey front porches and rocking chairs and a courtyard to be out in the open air.

Great Respite Stay Will Use Again

We used this community for their respite services, everything went very well. They took very good care of my mother and her needs. The community looks great. The staff was kind and caring. We will be using this community again for their respite services.

Professional in all areas of care.

My mother uses the Respite Care at Morningside. She has nothing but good to say about their care and I agree. The staff was very helpful in getting us checked in and they took wonderful care of my mother.

outstanding

Everything about our experience with Morningside of Decatur has really been wonderful. My mother is typically not one to get involved, but here she really has gotten involved in the community and with the activities and is really enjoying herself. They have really outstanding people that are really friendly and help out in any and every way possible. Mother has been there for about two months and thus far everything has been great and I would highly recommend them.

The Morningside is an excellent community.

The Morningside is an excellent community. The atmosphere is very pleasant and the staff on hand are very wonderful. They appeared to be very attentive to the residents, as none of the residents appeared to be unattended, and all seemed very happy. The rooms that we saw all looked very nice and the staff that we talked to were all very educated on the community.

Nice looking community

We toured this community when we were looking into senior living options. This was a very nice community, and it was #1 on our list for most of our search until we found another place that edged it out slightly. It's a nice looking place, and the staff we spoke with were always very friendly.

Morningside staff are very caring and understanding.

I can't say enough about the helpfulness and caring of all the people connected with Morningside. Moving parents into any place other than their own home is a traumatic event. Morningside staff knows this and are very understanding and helpful. Currently they are taking care of my mom and dad very well. My mom and dad can be together there which was a very important part of the decision. Because of the level of care needed by my dad, other places would not take both of them. So far this has worked out very well. I rest easier at night knowing the care that they get.
