While a senior with Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia may be fine staying at home during the early stages of the disease, there may come a time when they would benefit from a move into a community offering dedicated memory care. This is when senior living communities like MorningStar of Arvada can really be a support to families struggling with the decision of what is best for mom or dad.
At MorningStar of Arvada’s Reflections Neighborhood, we are honored to elevate life for those living with a diagnosis of dementia. Our dedicated team is ready to shoulder some of the burden for residents and their families throughout this unexpected journey. MorningStar’s care comes from a position of respect for residents, and is filled with compassion, dignity and love.
We begin our relationship by getting to know the person’s history, interests, abilities and preferences, and use this information to create a daily care plan to address their needs. Our signature philosophy and approach in dementia care is described by the expanse of possibilities we call “Lavender Sky” where our ambition is to thoughtfully enter, embrace and explore. The entire MorningStar team completes Lavender Sky training and Reflections Coordinators complete advanced coursework from the National Council of Certified Dementia Specialists.
Along with our on-going support for our residents’ families and personalized senior care plans, under MorningStar of Arvada’s Lavender Sky we provide:
- Aromatherapy and holistic modalities
- Culinary excellence; BrainWise foods
- Signature hydration program
- Purposeful life skill opportunities
Reflections Neighborhood has 29 suites in a choice of studios and one bedroom floorplans, and provides an intimate, supportive and loving environment, where independence is encouraged through clear wayfinding and inviting common areas. MorningStar’s technology, SafelyYou, helps us detect and prevent falls for memory care residents with (AI) Artificial Intelligence. Ask our Wellness Director about the use of SafelyYou for your loved one.
Our community also offers Short-term Stays for those times when a senior’s regular caregiver needs a break. Contact us to learn more about immediate openings in memory care Arvada, CO families can count on.
