Overview of MorningStar Senior Living of Parker

Organized around providing independent living, memory care, respite care, and assisted living, MorningStar Senior Living of Parker is situated in Parker, CO. Here, when a resident’s needs step up, the next level of care is already there within the same community.

Independent living pairs community services with a private residence, and the staff provide no daily care. Assisted living adds that care as hands-on help with taking medication, taking a bath, and getting dressed, along with other daily tasks. Memory care provides a secure, supervised setting for dementia that has made someone a risk to themselves if left unsupervised. Respite care, lastly, gives a family caregiver the opportunity to travel or to rest while the staff takes over for a short stay.

Residences range from studio to two-bedroom units, with one-bedroom units in between. The studio size has enough space for one person, and the two-bedroom has enough space for a couple moving in together who sleep apart. Pets are welcome here. The community is wheelchair-accessible too.

There is a pool, a salon, a spa, and a courtyard on-site, and there are transportation services for taking trips beyond the community grounds. The wellness program offers individualized service plans and Montessori-based therapies, while the Lavender Sky program is offered exclusively by the community.

MorningStar has been in operation for about 40 years and is located in the East Mainstreet neighborhood. The Walk Score for that area is 71 out of 100, meaning it’s very walkable and much of what’s nearby can be reached without a vehicle. The monthly pricing starts at $6,275.
