If
you are confused with what the term assisted
living means, you are not alone.
Relatively a new concept, assisted living is based on the European model
and is not a nursing home. Assisted
living is designed for seniors who require a little assistance with their daily
personal care such as bathing, dressing, eating, toileting, etc. Furthermore, rather than taking away a
person’s independence, assisted living provides the
services seniors need to maintain an independent lifestyle.
At
MorningStar
at Arrowhead, our assisted living offers five levels of
care. Your level of care will be
determined after a thorough assessment with our Wellness Director and in agreement
with you and your extended family. Also
regardless of your level of care, we provide all residents with around-the-clock
Care Managers (at least one team member is CPR trained on each shift) to meet
needs and ensure your comfort and safety.
On
the MorningStar
website, we list the many clinical services available to
residents including Medication Management, which is performed by Certified Med
Care Managers, routine care planning reviews and scheduled health and wellness
evaluations. In addition we have a
licensed nurse on-site or on-call, and provide transportation to residents’
medical appointments. If you or your
loved one is diabetic, we offer diabetes management as well as oxygen
administration services. MorningStar also
provides more advanced care such as catheter and colostomy care or
palliative/hospice care.
For
your safety, each assisted
living suite is equipped with handicapped-accessible
bathrooms and emergency call systems, and is smartly-designed to accommodate
the various needs of our residents. We
invite you to visit our website for more information and to set up a tour of
our beautiful senior living community.
At
MorningStar at Arrowhead, we represent the very best in senior living with a
unique mission statement of “to honor, to serve, to invest.” We have built a foundation on honoring God,
valuing all seniors and selecting staff with a felt calling to serve to create
a true “home” for residents. Please contact
us to learn more about our exceptional assisted living and memory care
community.
