MorningStar at Bear Creek’s Holistic Approach to Memory Care



MorningStar at Bear Creek is proud to offer assisted living for dementia patients in Colorado Springs.  Our loving community has 48 secure suites for those suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and other memory impairments.  Our team feels privileged to provide highly specialized, individualized care for seniors in the onset of the disease right through to the most advanced stages. 

MorningStar of Bear Creek’s resident-directed approach to memory care respects the dignity and value of each person and supports choice and independence as much as possible.  Residents are able to move freely about in a safe and secure environment that includes courtyards, patios (with double-sided stone fireplace) and strolling paths.  We also provide three daily meals served in our comfy dining room where residents and staff eat together.  In addition, residents are provided 24-hour care with daily health monitoring, and the expertise of a full-time licensed nurse.

MorningStar’s memory care comes from a deep understanding of the disease and we create an individualized care plan for each resident based on their background, preferences and abilities. Our compassionate, professional staff uses multi-sensory cues to calm and awaken memories and to support capabilities. All residents are encouraged to participate in a variety of purposeful activities that include music, life skills, art, entertainers and exercise as well as our special events and outings.

Please visit MorningStar of Bear Creek’s website for more information about our community.  If you like what you see, go ahead and set up a tour.  We understand families feel traumatized by the sobering diagnosis of Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, and we want you to know we are here to support you as well as your loved one.
