The Affordability of Assisted Living
At MorningStar at Mountain Shadows, we are honored to provide our residents with one of the finest assisted living facilities in the Colorado Springs area. However we are aware that too many seniors and their families do not fully understand all of the services and amenities communities like ours provide. Rather they think that assisted living is much more expensive than it actually is as they are not considering all it offers. In fact a 2016 study found that for full-time care, assisted living is a less expensive option than cobbling together comparable in-home care, which can end up costing considerably more.
You need to keep in mind that assisted living care at MorningStar at Mountain Shadows not only includes nutritious, delicious daily meals, but a full range of services including 24/7 care managers, and access to a licensed nurse. We also provide scheduled transportation, medication management services, CPR-trained staff on every shift, scheduled physician visits, choice of physician, pharmacy services, and much, much more.
Your level of care (we have five) is determined after a thorough assessment with our Wellness Director and based on your medical history and current needs. Due to the nature of memory care, it is provided at an all-inclusive packaged price.
Furthermore, assisted living does not mean you will lose your privacy or independence. When you receive the proper assistance you need each day, it will actually free you up to live a fuller life. Also our beautiful suites are designed with our residents’ needs in mind and have their own entrance to ensure your privacy and comfort. Another thing that makes living at MorningStar at Mountain Shadows feel just like home is we are pet friendly so you will not have to leave behind a beloved “member of the family” to move into our community.
