The Often Overlooked Benefits of Working in Assisted Living

Our beautiful senior living communities in the greater Phoenix area include MorningStar at Arcadia, MorningStar of Fountain Hills, MorningStar at Arrowhead, and our newest community, MorningStar at Golden Ridge.   Each of our loving residential homes is seeking compassionate individuals with a felt calling to serve to fill a variety of assisted living jobs.

If the idea of working in senior living is new to you, you may be unaware of the many rewards it offers both personally as well as professionally.  Assisted living communities such as MorningStar’s Phoenix homes offer free specialized training such as our proprietary Radiance service initiative, our Lavender Sky memory care program, CPR, and other meaningful training.  These programs are intended to establish your status as a professional service provider.

Another great thing about working in assisted living is your co-workers.  You will find yourself working alongside men and women who have also prioritized serving others as a worthy pursuit, and understand the magnitude of their contributions to society.  Furthermore as they too are dealing with some of the same challenges you are, they are the perfect people to understand your occasional frustrations.  

Working in assisted living additionally provides the opportunity for you to build special relationship with society’s true heroes – our residents.  By taking the time to listen, we can learn many of life’s lessons from seniors and enjoy their incredible stories of times past.  

As MorningStar’s Phoenix communities are true homes and operate around-the-clock, some of our openings include evening, night and weekend shifts, and may be full or part-time positions.  To enable a healthy work-life balance, we strive to honor shift preferences and to present predictable schedules. We know our homes would not be able to deliver the type of service our brand is known for without our dedicated team members, which is why we are pleased to pay competitive wages and offer comprehensive benefits.  These include medical, vision, and dental as well as vacation, sick and holiday pay. 

Please take a look at one of our available assisted living jobs in Phoenix, Glendale, Fountain Hills or our newest home in Peoria.  The MorningStar website’s Career page has more information regarding the most up-to-date openings, detailed job descriptions, and a convenient online application.      

At MorningStar’s Arcadia, Arrowhead, Fountain Hills & Golden Ridge communities, our unique mission statement: “to honor, to serve, to invest,” sets us apart from other senior living communities.  Our foundation is built on honoring God and valuing all seniors, and we are currently recruiting staff with a felt calling to serve.
