MorningStar Memory Care Facility is Designed to Feel like Home

Keeping a comfortable and inviting atmosphere is important in memory care, especially for those with dementia or Alzheimer’s. Moving to a dementia care facility can be overwhelming for residents when they transition from their home to a new space. Keeping their new environment clean, safe, and easy to navigate helps to ease the stress of our loved ones and reassures our minds when they show content with their new space and neighbors. 

Dementia care, also called memory care, is different from other senior living communities. While many memory care facilities include similar aspects to senior and retirement communities, MorningStar West Valley features 24-hour care, specialized and empathetically trained staff, memory-enhancing therapies, easy to navigate floor plans, and a secure environment. Our memory care facility in West San Jose is equipped to care for a person from the onset of dementia to more advanced stages.

A benefit of memory care homes is the controlled and easily maneuverable environment which helps reduce confusion and disorientation for residents with proper lighting, clearly marked hallways, and décor to encourage calmness and familiarity. Also, outdoor exploration is encouraged and permitted with safety precautions such as a secured sky terrace that allows residents to get fresh air and enjoy the scenery. When not in use, doors to and from the facility remain locked. 

Suites for memory care are available in a choice of studio and companion configurations from 318 to 492 sq ft on two levels. Suites include emergency call systems and handicap-accessible bathrooms. While a secure building, independence is encouraged and supported through clear wayfinding and safe and inviting common areas that encourage socialization and enrichment through holistic activities that help residents to feel safe and independent.
