If you are considering senior living, Phoenix’s MorningStar at Arcadia may be the answer. Unlike many other senior communities in the area, our warm and welcoming community was designed from the ground up to serve both assisted living residents as well as our most tender memory care residents.
MorningStar at Arcadia is dedicated to providing compassionate, loving care that enhances our residents’ lives. We are proud to have a team of individuals with a felt calling to serve, and who consider seniors to be heroes. Each staff member is the type of person who does the right things even when no one is watching and willingly goes the extra mile to assist our residents.
A sign that a loved one would do better in senior living includes a person who lives alone and has had a fall (or more than one) over the last six months. While hopefully they were not seriously injured, please keep in mind how dangerous falls are for seniors. The CDC reports that, “each year one in four older adults aged 65 and older will fall. Among older Americans, falls are the number one cause of injuries and death from injury.” In 2017 this resulted in 29 million falls, 3 million emergency department visits, 800,000 hospitalizations and 28,000 deaths. At MorningStar, every resident has around-the-clock Care Managers and access to full-time Licensed Nurses (on call 24/7). In addition, each of our private suites has an emergency call system installed.
Another reason assisted living makes sense for so many seniors right now is the isolation from sheltering at home due to the pandemic. For elderly adults who live alone, this can be very lonely as many are not able to spend time with their family members including their grandchildren. While it is great to be able to Skype or Facetime, we all know it is not the same thing.
While just a few examples of the numerous advantages senior living offers, a community like MorningStar at Arcadia is committed to ensuring the wellbeing and comfort of our residents on all levels. Think about the benefit of no longer having to grocery shop and prepare meals as we offer a 5-star dining service, or worry about getting safely to doctor visits and other important errands as we provide scheduled transportation.
Finally, we want you to know we have made many changes in our community to keep both residents and team members safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to stay abreast of developments and evaluate best practices and innovations in our services to seniors. Please visit our website for more information.
The unique mission statement of MorningStar at Arcadia, “to honor, to serve, to invest,” sets us apart from other senior living options. Our foundation is built upon honoring God, valuing all seniors, and investing in staff with a felt calling to serve. Dedicated to creating a real home for residents within a beautiful setting, we encourage you to learn more about the finest senior living Phoenix has to offer.
