See MorningStar’s Family Resources on Our Website
Our goal is to provide the best senior living Littleton offers, and one way we can do that is to help families navigate options to ensure their loved one gets the best care. On MorningStar’s website, you will find a variety of resources that offer answers to many of the questions seniors and their families have in regard to senior living communities.
Did you know that after all of the services and amenities provided to MorningStar’s assisted living residents are factored into the cost, our community is typically less expensive than trying to cobble together the same level of care at home? However we understand that for some seniors, the cost may be an obstacle. If it is something you and your family are struggling with, we encourage you to read through our Affordability guide on our website for recommendations to help make it more affordable.
We want you to know there are a wide array of financial solutions available beyond the retirement savings and investments you have built up through the years. In addition to these traditional ways of financing assisted living, we discuss some innovative financial, and often under-used, benefits.
One such benefit is long-term care insurance, which may be used to help pay for senior care that is not covered by Medicare. We advise that you read through your policy’s Benefits Summary to see what is eligible. MorningStar does not accept Medicaid.
Another source of often untapped income is to leverage your life insurance policies. Whole life and universal life policies build a reserve of cash through interest-earning excess premiums (known as the policy’s “cash value”). Before you cash in a policy, we recommend seeking the advice of a financial consultant as there may be tax consequences.
Please take a look at all of our suggestions online. Also we are happy to sit down with you and discuss financial options or any other questions you may have. MorningStar of Littleton has 65 bright suites for assisted living and 20 secure suites devoted to the specialized care of residents with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia.
The unique mission statement of MorningStar of Littleton, “to honor, to serve, to invest,” sets us apart from other senior living communities. 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 schedule a visit to see firsthand the finest assisted living Littleton CO has to offer.
