MorningStar at Mountain Shadows’ Approach to Memory Care

Along with a variety of well-designed floor plans for assisted living, Colorado Springs’ MorningStar at Mountain Shadows has suites for those suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and other memory impairments. Our team feels privileged to provide highly specialized, individualized care for seniors in the onset of the disease right through to the most advanced stages.

MorningStar at Mountain Shadows’ resident-directed approach to memory care respects the dignity and value of each person and supports choice and independence as much as possible. All our memory care suites are within our Reflections Neighborhood, which is designed to accommodate the needs of our special residents.

Memory care residents can move freely about in a safe and secure environment reserved just for them. We offer three daily meals served in our comfy dining room where residents and staff eat together. In addition, residents are provided 24-hour care with daily health monitoring, medication management and the expertise of a full-time licensed nurse.

MorningStar’s memory care comes from a deep understanding of the disease, and we create an individualized care plan for each resident based on their background, preferences and abilities. Our compassionate, professional staff uses multi-sensory cues to calm and awaken memories and to support capabilities. All residents are encouraged to participate in a variety of purposeful activities that include music, life skills, art, entertainment and exercise as well as our special events and outings.
