Learn More About MorningStar at Jordan Creek
If you live away from your aging parents or other elderly loved ones, we hope you are able to schedule visits at least a few times per year. Sometimes spending more time with mom or dad after not seeing them for some time can bring up real concerns about how well they are taking care of themselves on their own. In fact, you may be seriously considering how much they would benefit from the many services and amenities offered by assisted living.
At MorningStar at Jordan Creek, we understand many seniors are reluctant to make a change in their current living situation, which is why MorningStar offers a useful Decision Guide on our website under the “Family Resources” tab. Here you will find information on the various senior living options available today. The idea of Assisted Living took root in the late 1990s, as people started to realize there had to be a better option than the town’s nursing home, which often was a depressing, institutionalized facility that felt nothing like a home.
Enter the MorningStar Senior Living Company, which was begun in 2003 to fill that need. As Founder/CEO, Ken Jaeger explains, he wanted to create senior housing defined by the human touch. He explains, “I wanted to re-create my grandmother’s house, a place where one can go and feel a sense of family.”
Assisted living is designed for seniors who need a little help with day-to-day living but do not require full-time nursing. Communities such as MorningStar at Jordan Creek understand that senior living at its best allows residents to not only survive but to thrive with meaningful wellness programs and activities, fine dining, and a wide range of care services. In addition, it gives residents the opportunity to build relationships with fellow residents and our compassionate staff.
Our Decision Guide suggests you clearly identify what you are trying to solve in terms of your parent’s comfort, wellbeing and safety, and to do this with an eye to not only next year, but to the next 5-10 years. If you are looking for some of the best assisted living Des Moines and the surrounding area has to offer, please give us a call.
