MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care of Fountain Hills stands as a newly built, beautiful community for seniors, and you'll notice the foyer area when walking in, which feels inviting and home-like, and from there the place stretches out with a comfortable veranda where residents can sit outdoors and a courtyard for enjoying the sun or activities with others, and along the halls you'll come across model apartments to show what the studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floor plans look like, all built for easy movement and access. The place offers different levels of care all on one campus, with independent living, assisted living, and a dedicated memory care section called the Reflections Neighborhood, which has 28 private, safe suites for people with Alzheimer's or other memory-related problems, and those memory care apartments come with extra security and design features to help lessen confusion and prevent wandering. There's a real focus here on giving folks choices, with apartments that fit varied needs, whether for more independence or needing more day-to-day assistance, and every resident gets an individualized care plan. The community has trained, experienced caregivers on staff at all hours, ready to help with bathing, meals, getting dressed, or whatever's needed, and has a record of being deficiency free on the state nursing survey for several years.
You'll find plenty of places to gather, like the bistro, theater, and even a chapel, and for special occasions there's a private dining room. There's always someone to talk to and something to do, since the community has many social, wellness, and fitness programs, and residents can enjoy outdoor walking paths, patios, and views of that big lake fountain that sprays water high into the air every hour. Meals get cooked fresh with all-day dining options, and for those who want to stay active or need a little extra support with movement or speech, onsite therapy is available including PT, OT, and speech therapy. The location's resort-style design and warm interiors give it an elegant, relaxed feeling, where staff aim to honor seniors, serve them well, and invest in the teams that provide care, living by the mission "to honor, to serve, to invest." The community welcomes prospective residents for tours so families can see how things work day to day, whether stopping in to peek at the model apartments, checking out the safe walking areas, or meeting the staff and current residents who call the place home. MorningStar Fountain Hills offers all-inclusive rent options and keeps support available at all hours, so care adjusts as needs change without people having to move away from friends they've made, and its Arizona license (AL10506C) stands up to current standards for assisted living and memory care.
