Do not send your loved ones here
Lack of staff to patients in memory care resulted in my father being found on the floor in his room for an unknown amount of time. They sent my nonverbal father to the hospital in an ambulance with no paperwork and no one to go with. The hospital nearly entered him in as a John Doe because of this. The day he was discharged back to memory care he fell again due to lack of care to assist resulting in another hospital stay. Again no paperwork sent with him. This happened a third time and the staff advised ambulance care that my father's nonverbal condition and right side weakness was sudden and onset so he was nearly unnecessarily airlifted to a specialty hospital under suspicion of a stroke. Thankfully I called the hospital before that happened. When we cleared out his room, it was filthy. Shoes were missing. Clothes were missing or not his despite other men's names written on the clothing tags. My father had been urinating in drawers and other inappropriate places due to his dementia and it was being left there. No one brought this to our attention. They advised they cleaned every day. I would go and clean it when visiting my father. My father's toilet handle was broken for weeks. I had to address this with maintenance 4 times before it was fixed. When we would visit my father would be wearing other people's clothes and his nice clothing was missing. When I asked why no paperwork was sent with him the staff told me that the printer was broken. These facilities are supposed to provide families a peace of mind that their loved ones are being cared for properly. This facility did the opposite. Some of the staff were incredibly nice and caring, it seems as if the issue fell from higher up in management. It was a lot of overpromising and under delivering, and I unfortunately fell for the initial sales pitch. Do your research and look up other reviews and official reports/claims made against this place before committing.

While we always welcome feedback, we find it difficult to respond without knowing your identity as reviewer. The resident was quickly and safely returned thanks to the prompt and collective efforts of our leaders and the Glendale Police, whose assistance we immediately engaged as is our protocol in such circumstances. She was grateful and happy to be home, sharing smiles and hugs for all.

My father lived in the independent living casita. It was quite expensive when he wasn't taking advantage of the meals (feeding tube) and activities (got too ill to attend). That said, it's a nice place with nice people.

[name removed] has gotten out of the facility once and the police had to find her and bring her back. The caretakers are kind but disappointed in the staff. I have to cut nails and give her a shower. Management has been a disappointment. She has fallen a few times ending up in the emergency room. I would not recommend them to anyone.

Overall Experience
Staff very considerate and helpful. Community health staff very good and ready to help when needed to coordinate with emergency transport when needed.. The only real change to consider after speaking with my in-laws, who are residents at the community would be to broaden the dinner menus. Don’t need fancy things like shrimp and scallop linguine more of the basics. Maybe mix a little more pork and beef dishes. The age group was raised on what we call comfort food.

Our Experience
The best thing about the facility itself is the open concept at the entry. It is more like a cruise ship with lots of windows - bright and airy. The dining room is open continuously until 630pm and not closed off like other places. It is a very pleasant environment. The only downside is that, like a lot of places, there is a lot of staff turnover and some care givers are better than others. Overall, however, the atmosphere is very positive and the residents seem to get along together.

I looked a lot of places, but Morningstar was a great fit for my active mom
The meals are very good quality and I like that the café is open all day rather than specific hours. They also get to know the residents very well. Like a lot of places, I think they are sometimes understaffed, but overall they are fairly responsive. However, I would encourage all family members to stay very aware of the promised services and make sure they are being delivered. Sometimes they do not get to my mom's needs on a scheduled day.

tour review
Our family had an in person tour with MorningStar Senior Living and we really liked it. It was actually my first choice of the properties we toured at the time, but Mom did not like the open closet/walkway into bathroom. The tour was great, but it was too much for her and she had to keep stopping to rest, giving her the impression she would not be able to maneuver the hallways. Then someone at church told her it was a bad neighborhood, and that was the last straw for her.

I was very grateful for how efficiently we were able to get my mom settled on short notice. The staff has been great. Staff communicated could improve a bit. I do think communication could improve. I usually have to find the nurse etc to find out how things are going. Recently my mom fell again so back to hospital and rehab. We haven't gone back to morning star yet, but now I believe her care will need to be elevated, so we will see how that goes. I did feel like we would have heard from them more during her hospital and rehab stay. I had to let them know how she was doing.

Feels Like Home
This place is amazing! My loved one LOVES their new apartment there and raves about the food. Everyone there including staff, residents, and visitors. Have recommended it several times already. Honestly from what I have seen they are doing it all really well. They have lots of activities that they publish to residents and have posted on several spots. The food is another. It is served in a dining area that is operated like a restaurant with nice linens and is ordered from a menu. Nothing is institutional many other places have.

MorningStar's caretakers are the best!
I've already expressed with others how great MorningStar Senior Living at Golden Ridge is! I love their caretakers, they make you feel like you're part of a family. They talk to their patients like they're part of that family too. I would describe their communication as average. It'd be nice if they mailed me the bill earlier in the month, right now I receive it two days before it's due. I realize most of the residents families live in Arizona and I don't. As far as the office staff, I wish they were more responsive and quicker to respond. I've left messages and had to call back the next day because I hadn't heard anything. As for the staff who takes care of them, they're great.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Arizona regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Arizona regulations for Assisted Living.

Frequently Asked Questions
about MorningStar at Golden Ridge

MorningStar at Golden Ridge offers Studio, 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored MorningStar at Golden Ridge 8.9 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
