Assisted living facilities offer personalized care plans and social activities that promote quality of life for their residents.

MorningStar at Applewood Reviews

We recently helped a dear friend move into Morningstar’s memory care, and the team has been incredibly supportive throughout the process. Aundrea, who manages memory care on site, has been wonderful to work with. She is responsive, thoughtful, and an excellent problem solver. She consistently offers creative, practical solutions with a positive and caring attitude. Her professionalism and compassion have made a meaningful difference during a challenging transition. We are truly grateful for her support.

In response to the review left by Brad Markowsky (who resides in AZ)- It seems his complaint is that "Morningstar" does not accept Medicaid, which caused this unfortunate situation. I feel the "star" rating of the review should be reflective of the actual facility- ie the building, cleanliness, staff, services provided, etc. Morningstar Applewood not accepting Medicaid is most likely a corporate decision, not this individual facility's decision. Even if it was on an individual facility basis, that is their right as a business to accept it or not. Yes, it's unfortunate, and yes it's a very hard situation for my 102 yr old mother and our immediate family in the area that's supporting her and working through this situation, but we do not blame the facility. Over the 5 years she resided at Morningstar Applewood, the facility did change ownership, and there were some things that we felt could have been better, but our overall experience was very positive. It's one of the few facilities in the area that would take care of her dog as a service they provide, which was huge for her well being. With her age, she required an extra level of care/attentiveness from staff. We did not witness a "different experience at the end", implying that her care declined after realizing she would be leaving the facility. As stated in the response by Morningstar Applewood, they offered support, and they were very thoughtful with her birthday party (not only this year, but previous years as well). I had a wonderful relationship with Morgan who is genuinely kind, caring and compassionate and was always very responsive to my inquiries and handled any situation quickly. Morgan was very helpful when it came to getting mom into a Medicaid facility. The care staff was always very attentive, patient, caring and gave my mom and her dog extra attention. The facility is very nice, well kept, clean and the staff is attentive, friendly and helpful. I'm very happy with the care my mom received. I would not hesitate to choose this facility for my loved one and I have recommended the facility to neighbors and friends who are searching for care.

Overall the care and environment was pretty good but after being there for 7+ years, our family was recently informed that my 102 year old grandmother could no longer stay there. All her money was spent on this place and as soon as that ran out, we were told they would not accept Medicaid and she had to move out. Imagine that impact on a 102 year old grandma and her family? It definitely seems they are valuing profit over people's lives and once they get all your money - good luck finding something else. It was a very different experience at the end and you should seriously think about that if they are selling you on this place.

My wife was a resident of Morning Star until her passing on July 1st. I am writing to you on behalf of myself and my wife’s daughter. We both want to thank you and the staff of Morning Star for the care that my wife received while she was living at Morning Star. My stepdaughter and I have had many conversations regarding the care that my wife was receiving at your facility. We both agree that my wife was well taken care of. Your staff treated her with kindness and compassion. They were attentive to her needs and helped to make her as comfortable as possible. At all times, your staff were professional and alert to what she was experiencing that day. One thing that I noticed was whenever I arrived at Morning Star to visit my wife. Your staff would always know where she was. In her apartment, common room, or doing activities. Your staff would always keep us informed as to what was going on with my wife regarding her medications and current condition. If my wife took a fall, as she did several times. It was greatly appreciated that your staff would call to let me know what had happened and that she was all right and uninjured. I would like to say that your staff was fantastic and caring. I would like to send my gratitude to the Morning Star Staff. They took great care of my wife. And in my opinion, they would go above and beyond to help my wife whenever it was needed. My family and I are extremely grateful to Morning Star for all you did for us.
