Holistic Memory Care in Colorado


You don't have to go through an Alzheimer’s or dementia diagnosis alone. Whether it’s for you, a parent, or a loved one, you may find yourself feeling in need of some outside assistance, and memory care communities are wonderful environments that are ideal for seniors with Alzheimer’s and dementia. In fact, studies show that a senior living in a memory care community will experience a higher quality of life than when they live at home alone. At MorningStar senior living of Littleton, your loved one will live in an apartment-like home complete with safety features and surrounded by caring neighbors and nurturing staff members.

Holistic memory care can be defined as engaging a patient’s body, mind, and spirit without turning to unnecessary modes of medication to treat uncomfortable behavior. MorningStar senior living is a senior care community that is intent on knowing about a resident’s whole wellness and personality. From physical health to hobbies, interests, walks of life and more, caring for the whole person starts with taking the time to understand them, both before and after their memory loss diagnosis. For our care towards those with Alzheimer’s, knowing who they were before is just as important as knowing who they are now.

MorningStar’s signature philosophy and approach to dementia care is described by the expanse of possibilities we call “Lavender Sky.” Under this mantra, our ambition as senior living caregivers is to thoughtfully enter, embrace and explore the world of dementia, instead of shying away from the diagnosis.

Contact us today if you want to know more about “Lavender Sky,” predictable budgeting, and security that comes from residing in an assisted living community focused on Alzheimer’s care.

The MorningStar Family

MorningStar Senior Living’s Founder and CEO, Ken Jaeger, first began forming the idea of starting a company from a desire to create senior living that was defined by the human touch. He says his intention was to “re-create my grandmother’s house, a place where one can go and feel a sense of family.” This simple but profound concept has driven the overwhelming success of our MorningStar brand. Now nearly seventeen years later, MorningStar continues to add communities across the Western U.S., including MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care of Littleton, in the Greater Denver area. At MorningStar of Littleton, our goal is to create a true home for our residents - one that feels like a family. To help us achieve this, our dedicated team strives to live up to our unique mission statement, which includes honoring God in all of our business practices and relationships and valuing all seniors as gifted and contributing individuals.

The Top Reasons Family Considers Assisted Living

Coming to the realization that your loved one may need support beyond what you can provide comes with difficult decisions to make regarding assisted living . Caregivers of family members and loved ones that have special needs or require extra help often experience their own hardships. Anxiety, depression, negative eating habits, financial strain and poor health are not rare when it comes to caring for an elderly parent or family member. Children of senior parents may feel shame in assessing senior living and assisted care, but these facilities can lessen that guilt and offer a peace of mind that your loved one is healthy, safe, and happy. You know your parent better than anyone and have developed a care routine that allows your parent to be close by or living in similar circumstances of their younger years. Sadly, this may not always be sustainable. Perhaps you have welcomed a new child, taken a new job where you will be around less often, or maybe have decided to move. If you are unab

Does your elderly mom or dad dismiss the idea of assisted living fearing it would end their independence and life as they know it? Do they think assisted living homes are more like nursing homes of the past? We want to reassure you and your senior loved one that assisted living communities such as MorningStar at Mountain Shadows are not nursing homes. In fact, we do not offer skilled nursing services but rather provide assistance with the ADLs (activities of daily living), along with engaging activities and other services intended to improve and enhance quality of life. It is important to a senior’s overall health that they receive proper care as the website Aging.com reports, “Functional status and the ability to care for oneself have a significant impact on a senior's quality of life. Unmet needs for help with activities of daily living can lead to malnutrition, poor personal hygiene, isolation, illnesses like urinary tract infections (UTIs), and falls.” In fact, studies show se
