My step sister and I toured four assisted living places in Littleton and easily knew MorningStar of Littleton was the right place for my mom and her dad. The initial vibe was welcoming and friendly. Caregivers have smiles on their faces and could be heard greeting residents by name. The building itself is beautiful, very homey, lots of open spaces for residents to gather outside their apartments, a beautiful covered front porch and outdoor patio area. As our folks settled in we were so impressed with the interaction with caregivers, the activities offered and how staff make a point and encourage residents to participate. My cousin from PA visited and could not get over how wonderful caregivers and staff were. My mom got an unfortunate cancer diagnosis and was receiving treatment. This was rough for everyone. Caregivers and staff were so kind and supportive. Everything from delivering meals, managing pain medication, bringing flowers and stopping in for a hug or a chat. Yes, this is their job, but these folks really care and it showed and helped our situation so much. MorningStar is a true community. My family and I spent so much time there and saw on a daily basis the genuine kindness, caring and competence that makes up the wonderful MorningStar of Littleton community.
When my mom and I first toured MorningStar of Littleton, we knew that that was the place she wanted to be! And we're so happy that she moved there! She was there only for a year and a half before she passed away. During that year and a half, she was treated with so much respect and the aides and staff loved her! She treated the aides like they were her grandchildren and they never took it for granite. The entire staff, from housekeeping to the chef, are so caring and will help you with whatever you need. I would highly recommend MorningStar for your loved one.
Our mother and stepdad entered the Littleton Morningstar in April, 2020 in the middle of covid. While we were not able to see their room, the staff went out of their way to help us understand what would and would not fit in their room and helped make their move as smooth as possible. Sadly, our stepdad passed away in October of that year, but our mother was a resident of Morningstar until she passed away this past January. Since I live nearby, I visited her frequently and all staff members were very accommodating to her needs. During the early years, the food was not up to Mom's - and others - liking, but, recently, it has greatly improved with a new chef. During Mom's final days, the nurses and staff members were so caring and accommodating to Mom's needs and were wonderful about keeping us informed. My siblings and I would definitely recommend MorningStar of Littleton if you have a loved one who needs extra care.
Melissa and her team were very helpful in providing quality care for my father, as well as my father-in-law and mother-in-law (2 years prior) in their last days. The joy and willingness of everyone to attend to their many requests (and there were many) was greatly appreciated. Most of all, Melissa was always available to speak with us as their care situations and needs changed. For her and her team at MorningStar, assisted living and memory care is more than just a "job".
MorningStar has helped my mom transition to a new way of living. The support she has received has been outstanding. In her words, "the food is great, the people are great, I feel so much better in my new apartment than in the last place." I can honestly say my mom is smiling, talking, and enjoying most everyday here. She thinks, and I agree, the support staff have gone out of their way to make her feel at home. I wish I had found this facility sooner. Totally has made a wonderful improvement in both my outlook and my mom's. Honestly, I would be happy to live there too.
