MorningStar’s Newest Senior Living Community is Now Open

MorningStar Senior Living - Patio
MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care of Happy Valley opened its doors with an Inaugural Reception that included plenty of pomp and ceremony on November 13th.  On our website, you will find a picture of the ribbon cutting by first depositor Phyllis, Tiana Jackson, Executive Director, Founder/CEO Ken Jaeger and Mayor Tom Ellis.  The 130 attendees enjoyed a tour of MorningStar’s newest community in Happy Valley, OR, a southeastern suburb of Portland.

If a parent or loved one would benefit from the care and the many amenities and services assisted living offers but are reluctant to make a change in their current situation, please visit MorningStar’s Family Resource link to our helpful “Decision Guide.”   We know that while it is a good thing to have the various senior living options available today, it can lead to confusion and our Decision Guide helps to clarify them.  

One of the first tips in the guide is to clearly identify what you are trying to solve in terms of your loved one’s comfort, wellbeing and safety.  We recommend doing this with an eye to not just next year, but to the next 5-10 years. If you are new to the concept of assisted living, it is a relatively new idea that first emerged in the late 1990s, and provides a refreshing change from nursing homes of old that were often institutional and depressing. 

For additional help with starting a conversation on senior living, request a copy of “Senior Life: How to have the Best Conversation Ever with Your Elder Parent” from us.  It provides a thorough explanation of the relational and psychological constructs of aging and legacy. 

Please give us a call or use our online form to set up a tour if you or a loved one requires a little help with daily personal care activities and would benefit from companionship and the stimulation of our wellness programs and activities.  We look forward to meeting you. 

MorningStar of Happy Valley represents the finest in senior living with our distinct mission statement – “to honor, to serve, to invest.”  With a foundation built on honoring God, valuing all seniors and selecting staff with a felt calling to serve, we create a true home for residents within a beautiful setting.  Please contact us to learn more about our exceptional assisted living and memory care community.
