Compassionate Memory Care at MorningStar of Wheat Ridge
At MorningStar of Wheat Ridge we are proud to offer individualized, loving memory care to those suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Our parent company, MorningStar Senior Living, operates over 30 senior living communities throughout the Western U.S. This means MorningStar of Wheat Ridge benefits from the extensive knowledge and expertise our company has gained over their 18 years of operation regarding all facets of senior living, including a deep understanding of Alzheimer’s and other dementia-related diseases.
MorningStar has earned a reputation as trusted dementia care specialists, and we feel it is our calling to provide care to our most special residents. By devoting a separate area to memory care called our Reflections Neighborhood, residents have the independence to safely move about their expansive surroundings, including an enclosed patio and courtyard. In order to create an effective individualized care plan to guide our daily interactions and communication techniques, we meet with the senior and their family to learn as much as we can about the person’s background, talents and preferences even before they join our community.
Our holistic approach to dementia care is encompassed under the expanse of possibilities we call “Lavender Sky,” and is how we thoughtfully enter, embrace and explore the entirely different and isolating world of dementia. Providing loving support for our residents, we enter with insight and intentionality as we step into their “purple world” and cross over the physical and emotional boundaries that would otherwise separate us. We also feel it is our job to help support our residents’ families. Along with education, we show them how to follow our lead and enter into the world of their loved ones.
In addition to our Reflections Neighborhood for memory care, MorningStar of Wheat Ridge offers 45 stylish suites for assisted living with a choice of spacious studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom floorplans. Please visit our website to learn more about our approach to memory care and our exceptional community.
MorningStar of Wheat Ridge’s mission statement of “to honor, to serve, to invest” sets us apart from other senior living communities. We have built a foundation on honoring God, valuing our seniors and selecting staff with a felt calling to serve. Set in a warm, loving atmosphere with beautiful surroundings and resort-style amenities, we provide outstanding assisted living and memory care.
