MorningStar Senior Living of Idaho Falls

My mother lived at Morningstar (Idaho Falls) for nearly six years. She always enjoyed the outings and special events that were available to residents. She especially loved the live entertainment that is available for residents and sometimes performed the musicians. About a year ago, she moved to the memory care unit where she was an active participant in most activities. She always had post it even comments about the staff and facilities. Since the onset of Covid, the staff frequently contacted myself and other family members to keep us appraised of happenings and health issues. The Reflections staff is the best in the business.

From our understanding the food is not the best, however they have made huge improvements on their activities. They is always something going on every single day. They could use improvements on the billing side of communication regarding insurance and medicaid and what happens when your loved one will run out of money.

My mom lived @ Morningstar for 9 months. It was a great place in most respects. [Name removed], the manager of Reflections was excellent in communication and caring for my mom’s needs. [Name removed], the main nurse, was so attentive and caring— loved her! Most caregivers were great- especially [names removed]. Some just looked at it as just a job and didn’t fulfill the mission statement of honoring God. As a CNA, I admire caregivers who go above and beyond and truly care for each resident as very valuable. Thank you to ALL who did that (I may not have remembered your names, as I’m bad at names :D).
