Senior Living Offers Many Benefits to Its Residents

Several studies have shown that the majority of seniors who move into senior living communities say they prefer it to living alone.  A Place for Mom reports that “while many seniors want to age at home as long as they can, research shows that senior living communities may be the healthier option; especially after a spouse passes away.”  Also seniors are often unaware of the wide range of services and amenities available at an independent or assisted living community. 

When a senior lives alone, they can become pretty isolated especially if they have stopped driving.  In addition trying to maintain a house can be difficult for aging adults.  Housekeeping chores, preparing meals, and going up and down stairs can be challenging for the elderly.  Another problem faced by seniors who live alone is a fear of falling.  Having no one around to help in the case of an emergency can be scary as well as life-threatening.

Senior living communities such as MorningStar of Rio Rancho provide creative programs and activities that encourage and enhance health and wellness, socialization, and mental stimulation.  At Rio Rancho we also provide scheduled transportation as well as arrange special outings to local destinations such as museums, parks, plays, shopping malls and scenic drives.  Residents at our assisted living and memory care community will no longer have to worry about fixing meals as we provide three daily meals that are both healthy and delicious.

When MorningStar of Rio Rancho opens to residents in the spring of 2019, we will offer 51 private assisted living suites and 26 secure suites devoted to caring for those with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.  Our community is situated on 5.5 acres at the northwest corner of Westside Boulevard and Golf Course Road in scenic Rio Rancho.  Please stop by our Information Center located onsite to learn about the many benefits we offer to those in need of assisted living or memory care.
