MorningStar Offers Trusted Memory Care in Colorado Springs

For seniors suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia, MorningStar at Bear Creek provides care from the onset of the disease to the most advanced stages. While a secure building, our community encourages independence with clear wayfinding and inviting common areas including two spacious living rooms, a gathering room with a double-sided hearth and aquarium, bistro, courtyards, patios and strolling paths.

Suites are available in studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom floor plans. For residents’ safety, suites are equipped with emergency call systems and handicap-accessible bathrooms with walk-in tubs. Other amenities include housekeeping and laundry services as well as scheduled transportation for doctor’s appointments and special outings.

All MorningStar team members are trained in our “Lavender Sky” program that encompasses our philosophy and approach to memory care. This training gives employees a better understanding of the disease and more tools for effective, compassionate care. In addition, residents receive daily health monitoring with access to licensed nurses and other third-party service providers.

Meals are served family-style, and tasty as well as nutritional. Many foods are easily eaten with fingers to accommodate those who may have trouble using a fork and knife. In addition, our wellness programs keep residents purposefully engaged and leverage the power of music, dance, art, aromatherapy and animals to heal and comfort whatever the extent of memory loss.

Once a family decides MorningStar is a good fit, we start the process to learn as much as we can about your loved one’s background, talents and personal preferences using a tool called “To Know Me is To Love Me.” This allows us to create a specialized, individualized service plan that calms or stimulates as each unique situation suggests.
