MorningStar at Bear Creek Offers Trusted Memory Care

MorningStar at Bear Creek is unique from many other senior communities as our entire community is devoted to the specialized needs of those with Alzheimer’s and other dementia-related diseases. Our care services are extensive, and we provide a wide range of amenities, wellness programs and activities.

MorningStar’s memory care revolves around comforting and caring for our residents from the onset of the disease to the most advanced stages. We start with a physical space designed to enhance residents’ quality of life with safe, inviting common areas encouraging independence. Residents stay active with purposeful activities including art, music, dance, physical exercise and special events.

Once a resident joins our MorningStar family, we meet with them and their family to get to know as much as we can about them including their history, vocation, talents, and preferences. From there we create a daily routine designed to stimulate or calm as a situation requires. Residents are also treated to tempting meals consisting of specially prepared foods and family-style dining for a stress-free, companionable dining experience.

MorningStar’s approach and philosophy to dementia care is encompassed under the expanse of possibilities we call Lavender Sky. Our program provides us with an insightful and intentional way to support the memory-impaired and their families. All team members, regardless of their position, receive Lavender Sky training, which includes a deeper understanding of the disease and communication techniques to use with memory-impaired residents. It also includes training in environmental safety and security as well as holistic solutions to challenging behaviors. In addition, our Memory Care Coordinators complete advanced coursework from the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners.
