The Margaret T. Morris Center

I brought my wife Vickie Hoffman to MTM over four years ago, at the end of March, 2022. For the first year and a half I was able to take Vickie out for walks, hikes, and meals. When her condition made it necessary to move her upstairs for more intensive care, that more intensive care by her will-trained caretakers always has been excellent. I visit her nearly every day for at least three hours and have either lunch or dinner with her, so I have been able to see that the caretakers always have given Vickie all of the kind of care she needs at the times she needs it. The caretakers and also the other members of the staff always have been very friendly and responsive to any request that I might make. Charles Hoffman

I have visited most Memory Care Assisted Living facilities in this area and am sure they all have merit, but I think the Margaret T. Morris Center is unique. The Care Giver to resident ratio is high. All the staff members go out of their way to be supportive and care for the needs of the individual resident. The residents are engaged in a verity of games and musical artists frequently entertain. My family memeber has been a resident at the MTM Center for some time and do not think the care could be better. I highly recommend the Margaret T. Morris Center if someone needs care in a friendly safe environment.

Placing mom in a memory care center was a difficult decision but I no longer could fulfill her needs. Mom was alone and lonely, and my daily visits and care were not enough. My gut was telling me that mom was withering away, unhappy and unwell. I was looking for a memory care place already when an agency that was helping me with mom suggested MTMC. After the tour, my gut agreed with this suggestion. Mom is thriving at Margaret T. Morris. The difference in her attitude and the degree of interaction with others are amazing. She is smiling and active, she’s making friends and most of all she eats her meals and gets dressed to be ready for the day. She is happy. She is beaming. Thank you, MTMC.

Our dad moved to the Margaret T Morris Center four months ago from another memory care residence in Minnesota in order to be closer to family. We are thrilled with absolutely everything MTMC has been able to provide him, in terms of care, activities, food, socialization/community, outdoor access, ... the list goes on! MTMC has also given us as family members wonderful support, including access to a caregiver support group that meets on line every other week. As someone who has seen four family members navigate the memory care journey, I have seen (and had loved ones living in) a wide variety of facilities in Arizona, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania. I can honestly say that MTMC is the gold standard of memory care. They have staff and management with long track records of working there -- some into their third decade. MTMC is dementia-specific, so they can focus solely on the needs of those with memory loss issues. I also appreciate the fact they are a non-profit, which means they are not beholden to corporate interests/shareholders and can provide services that center the residents. MTMC is truly an amazing place for our dad to consider home in this last chapter of his life, and our family is so fortunate to have found our way here!
