Moving a Loved One to MorningStar Memory Care at Bear Creek

MorningStar at Bear Creek in Colorado Springs is committed to providing all-inclusive, compassionate care to those suffering from Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. Our care techniques include a variety of multi-sensory cues designed to calm and awaken memories as well as to support the person’s capabilities and affirm their dignity and value.  We strive to make each day as special as possible for our residents and we have a wonderful team of caregivers that help us achieve that goal.  

Unlike many memory care communities, our community was designed from the ground up to accommodate our residents’ every need.   While a secure building, independence is encouraged and supported through clear wayfinding, and safe and inviting common areas, both inside and out. Rather than long sterile hallways, our figure-eight floor plan allows residents to explore yet find their way back to an open, inviting area.

As one of several dozen MorningStar communities across eleven states, we understand moving a loved one with dementia to memory care is a major lifestyle transition, and are ready to help in whatever way we can. We recognize, just as each individual is unique, so is their moving process.     

Our MorningStar team approaches the move-in with great sensitivity as we nurture a relationship with each new resident along with their family. Once a family decides on MorningStar, our moving-in process starts in earnest as we secure vital information, agreements and permissions inherent to the move including a medical assessment and physician’s plan of care. 

To make your loved one feel more comfortable in their new surroundings; we suggest furnishing their suite with familiar objects such as a favorite easy chair, pictures of family and friends, and decorations and mementoes. If you like; we can recommend moving companies experienced in senior transitions, and have furniture carts and dollies to borrow, if needed.  Please contact us to learn more about MorningStar at Bear Creek’s quality assisted living dementia care.
