MorningStar Senior Living

We moved my grandfather in during the quarantine which was an unbelievably stressful time. All of the staff went above and beyond to ensure that the entire move in process was as painless and possible and ensure that my grandfather was comfortable through everything. Because of visitation restrictions the staff has been beyond helpful in doing everything from providing companionship to assisting with phone calls and any other challenges that have come up. I think I might be one of the most difficult and needy people that they deal with because of my worrying about my grandfather. They have NEVER made me feel like I am needy but the opposite with ensuring me that they APPRECIATE that I am involved with being there for him. The facility is beautiful and the staff are too inside and out! Grateful to have such a wonderful team supporting my family through this! My grandfather never wanted to leave his house, but has found his care team to make this difficult period truly enjoyable!

I love this place for my mom. In troubled times they are taking the neccessary steps to keep her and others safe. She is taken care of in every way. All staff have been helpful. The only thing I can complain about is the quality of the food. I wish it was not so cheap of quality cheap and was a more organic wholesome menu. Thank you Casa Sandoval!

My wife, during the last six weeks of her life, was kept safe and clean thanks to the staffs at Morning Star and Abode hospice. Knowing she was being well taken care of made my own life, at a most difficult time, much easier.

The people in charge at this facility, specifically [name removed] and [name removed] are the most accessible and accomodating people I have ever worked with. They have made this transition easy and go out of their way to make sure all needs are met. The whole facility is top notches.

My friend is in the memory care unit and gets excellent care. There are activities hourly and her needs are promptly met. The staff is competent and courteous.

I am currently living in another asst. living place but went to visit my friend at MorningStar. He is paying much less than I am, but seems to be getting much more.

Very impressed with this facility. The people in charge are competent and caring. The grounds are beautiful inside and out. There are always stimulating and enjoyable activities planned. I would highly recommend this place to anyone in need of assisted living.

My husband has been in the memory care area for about 2 months. We love it here. The activities are varied and the residents are very well cared for. But the best part of MorningStar is the kindness and love of its staff. They are all so gentle and accommodating and put the needs of the residents first. We are very lucky to be here.

From the very first time we stepped foot in the door, we knew this place would be home for mom. The directors, front desk, caregivers, all staff are absolutely above and beyond helpful. I cannot express my heartfelt gratitude for all your love and support. It truly has given me peace of mind. Thank you to [names removed] and all!!! God bless you all for being an answer to prayer!

This is the most friendly upbeat atmosphere. I am so pleased to have found this wonderful facility via A Place for Mom. Everyone here is so nice, helpful and kind. Love the hands-on approach by everyone in the building. Thank you!

[Name removed] is a star in hospitality and welcoming to me a very comfrotable support. I'd hire.

MorningStar is beautiful from the inside/out. The love you feel from every employee is a great feeling. I come into this facility many times throughout the week and I truly enjoy the atmosphere. They have one of the best memory cares in town. If your looking for a great place for mom or dad. Give them a shot. They won’t let you down.

This is the place ever, my mother lived there for 5-years and was taken care of like no other. I took many trips from Sacramento, CA to Idaho Falls, Idaho to check on my mother no complaints. We had other choices to place mom but nothing like Morning Star! Class act, everyone there are professional, caring and treated everyone very well.

I was presented with a difficult decision seventeen months ago. A decision that involved my active, independent aunt who was suffering from memory loss. My aunt lived in Boise, Idaho and could no longer take care of herself. She was no longer safe. My family and I decided that she would need to be moved closer in order for me to take care of her. I began my search for a facility that would give her the care she would need. I visited several other memory care facilities in the Idaho Falls area. I also talked to friends who had to find such care for their love ones. The conclusion was to place her in Morning Star. I found the staff to be very kind and supportive of me during this difficult time. Realizing that his change was hard for her and me. My aunt had many ups and downs before she was able to accept her new residency. She struggled with changing her clothes, anger and routine. My aunt enjoys her time at Morning Star and tells me of the kindness they bestow on her during the day such as the snacks, playing bingo and them asking her to help with simple jobs such as placing flyers in envelopes for them. All of these activities make her feel valued. She likes their food but is afraid it is making her fat. I have visited her at different times during the day and have always found her to be clean, happy and talkative. The staff makes me feel welcome by calling me by name. She and I particularly like the fact that she goes on outings in the community. I have found the staff to always tell me when my aunt is running low on supplies so that she is never out of the things she needs. When I call an hour to 30 minutes a head to alert the staff that I will be talking my aunt out of Morning Star for an errand, family gatherings or doctor she has always be ready to go. Until recently access to my aunt was always easy but because of carelessness of a few, family members are no longer able to let themselves in they must wait for a staff member to open the door and at times that can be long due to other duties the staff members must attend to. I would recommend Morning Star for anyone who was looking for good quality care for people suffering from memory loss. Their compassion is genuine and appreciated by those who are suffering with the gradual loss of someone they love. I give Morning Star a five -star rating. [name removed]

It appears to me that the staff is very well trained and competent. I have never noted an incident occur that they couldn’t handle. All the while they are pleasant but in quiet control.

Morning Star is a great community for our seniors. They give great care, love, and respect. Memory care has non stop fun activities going and a very welcoming atmosphere.

If you are thinking about moving Mom or dad into Reflections I would highly suggest it. The care they show my loved one is irreplaceable. I am in here often and see the interaction employees have with those whom live here and it is remarkable. [Name removed] is in constant contact with me and sends pictures letting me know how things are going. Communication is great (they will call us when supplies are running low to bring in new), food is good, very clean and smells great. Activities are always taking place when I arrive. Thank you Morningstar for showing the love you do.

My mother recently moved into an independent living unit. Within just a few days, the entire staff knew her by sight. This facility is immaculate and their are numerous activities, entertainment, and enjoyable outdoor space. A highly desirable environment!

Very nice. CLEAN and organized. Fantastic apartments at a reasonable price. This one is my first choice so far (cm)

A beautiful facility with friendly staff. Not even open a year, everything is sparkling new and the decor is beautiful. Residents were busy in different areas doing different activities.
