Christian base, no way
They did not perform the care I was paying for, they did not know how to handle dementia patients, the director did not handle things professionally, the marketing director was misleading For a Christian based company, they did not represent that. I would not recommend them to anyone.

Beth, we sincerely apologize for your disappointment with our community. Your words cut us to the quick, for Judeo-Christian principles are indeed at the epicenter of the MorningStar brand, guiding our behavior and actions. As our Executive Director shared in many conversations with you, we regret our inability to accommodate your family’s needs despite the demonstrated effort to do so.  We wish you and yours the very best.

Do Not Recommend for Memory Care
It appears the assisted living side is running much smoother. I cannot recommend the memory care side. They are understaffed and not trained in dementia care. They keep moving new residents in and keep losing staff. It's very concerning to me. The lease states the apartment will be cleaned weekly but they go WEEKS without cleaning it. Her toilet has been black multiple times and I've had to get angry and be a squeaky wheel to get her apartment cleaned. They can't keep a housekeeping employee. I can't begin to imagine how disgusting other resident's apartments are who do t have someone visiting them frequently to be an advocate for them. If we had options I'd move her.

Look past the chandelier…
As pretty as it looks, it’s the worst place you could put a loved one. Management is so under educated and trained it could easily be an unfortunate situation for your loved one. They’ll promise you the world and tell you everything you want to hear, then never do any of it. Room was never vacuumed in a year, meds mismanaged, food is awful, no activities accept movies, no stimulation, and lies upon lies. Go elsewhere!

Overall, extremely happy
Most of the staff at MorningStar Assisted Living and Memory Care of Santa Fe is wonderful. There are a couple that have bad attitudes. The housekeeping in her apartment is average at best, but in all fairness, I'm not 100% certain that my mom doesn't turn them away when they come to clean. She has Alzheimer's so getting the facts is difficult. The move in process was outstanding and the maintenance staff is awesome. They mounted her headboard and tv onto the walls and put together a nightstand for her. I couldn't believe it. The meals and the selections are good. After having looked at quite a few Assisted Living/Memory Care facilities we chose MorningStar and overall we've been extremely happy.

Good At First Sight
I am currently a resident at MorningStar Assisted Living and Memory Care of Santa Fe. This facility seemed good to me at first sight, however now I know different and I would not recommend this facility to others. The food here is awful. The staff are too few. The cost of this facility is too high for the value received for the resident. Overall, my experience has been okay but again I would not recommend this facility to others.

MorningStar gets 5 stars for everything. The staff are very responsive to all needs and any requests for services. They are thoughtful and conscientious, great with teamwork, competent, and very friendly and caring towards the residents and their family. I would absolutely recommend MorningStar of Santa Fe! They have a positive, pleasant atmosphere created by the respective staffs and their directors. The location of Morning Star along with its excellent staff, beautiful spaces, restaurant-style dining, & apartment washer/dryer sealed the deal.

My opinions
We chose MorningStar house because they were the newest, the best looking ,and seemed to have the best care set up and activities provided. They are short staffed and having issues hiring new people. Sometimes you do have to keep on their case about what they are supposed to be doing, so that could definitely be improved. Overall I would recommend to others looking.

Our family had an in person tour and MorningStar being newer is a very nice and pretty community with plenty of good amenities. However, at the time of our tour they had a huge plumbing issue, there was a vent clogged and immediately there was just a big fowl odor.

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 New Mexico 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 New Mexico regulations for Assisted Living.
