If any of this sounds familiar, you need to know you are not alone. At MorningStar we understand the mixed-emotions that come with such a big lifestyle change. However just as we are committed to caring for our residents, the MorningStar of Arcadia staff is there to offer support for the families of our residents.
Also, when your parent makes their home with us, we are not replacing you in their life, but rather are providing the specialized care they need. In fact, we think by letting us handle all of the caregiver duties, it frees you up to enjoy the time you do spend with your loved one and to start relaxing together and sharing memories or a laugh.
Our experience has taught us it is best to introduce the idea of assisted living to your parent or spouse during a time and place when everyone is gathered and feeling relaxed. Remember a decision does not have to be made all at once but typically it is better to let it come in stages. Sometimes a family worries they may get resistance to the idea but are surprised to find it is something the person has been thinking about for some time.
Ultimately the decision should be a consensus among family members as well as the senior. If you have questions or want to talk to someone about it, the MorningStar staff is here for you. Please visit our website to learn more about the best senior living Phoenix has to offer.
MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care at Arcadia represents the best in senior living with a unique mission statement “to honor, to serve, to invest.” We have built our foundation on honoring God, valuing all seniors and selecting staff with a felt calling to serve…all of which contributes to creating a true home for residents amid a beautiful, serene setting.
