Senior Living Offers Many Benefits

 If you have gotten tired of the constant maintenance and repairs that home ownership requires, it may be time for a change.  Perhaps you feel like your social life has shrunk since you retired, or maybe you have recently suffered the loss of your spouse and are lonely.  Many seniors who have felt like you do have discovered the advantages of 55+ senior living communities like MorningStar of Pasadena, and have not looked back.  

To start with, senior living means never having to worry about mowing the lawn, shoveling snow, or coming up with the money to replace a furnace or air conditioning system.  Seniors also say they enjoy living in a community of people around their same age and who share many of their same interests.  At MorningStar of Pasadena, residents have opportunities for new friendships as well as to participate in a range of activities as much or as little as they like.  We additionally give residence security of knowing someone is always around with a 24-hour emergency call system. 


If you are downsizing from a home that is larger than you need, senior living may even be financially beneficial.  Predictable budgeting is another peace of mind benefit as all of your bills are rolled into one monthly payment including basic cable TV, utilities and phone.  Daily housekeeping services, restaurant-style dining, and onsite amenities including a general store, fitness center, 24/7 Concierge Services among others, ensures your retirement years are truly stress-free.    


Moreover for seniors who require a little help with  activities of daily living (ADLs), we offer compassionate assisted living Pasadena families can count on with 24/7 care managers, access to licensed nurses and more.  If you need respite care, (short recuperative stays) or wish to sample our community with a trial stay from one week up to a full month, contact us for availability.  Lastly once you become a resident of MorningStar of Pasadena, you will have priority access to the COVID vaccine.  Please visit our website for contact info, list of amenities, floorplans, photos, and map as well as information about The MorningStar Senior Living Company.  


MorningStar of Pasadena’s distinct mission statement “to honor, to serve, to invest” sets us apart from other senior living options.  Our foundation is built on honoring God, valuing our seniors and hiring staff with a felt calling to serve.  We are in a warm, loving environment with exceptional architecture and resort-style amenities.  Please visit our website to learn more about the finest independent living and assisted living Pasadena, CA families can rely on.

How Many Steps Per Day for Better Health?

  We have all heard about the value of walking 10,000 steps a day but recent studies show it may not actually be the magic number. One study published by JAMA found walking 7,000 steps or more a day may decrease the risk for mortality and offer better overall health. In the cohort study of 2110 adults with a mean follow-up of 10.8 years, participants who walked at least 7000 steps a day, compared with those taking fewer than 7000 steps, had a 50% to 70% lower risk of mortality. Researchers also noted, “There was no association of step intensity with mortality regardless of adjustment for step volume.” A 2020 study found a decreased risk for mortality in participants who took 8,000 steps a day than those who only took 4,000 steps a day. In the same year, another study found more steps taken each day were linked to lower rates of diabetes. Researchers say the bottom line is evidence points to the importance of increased physical activity. Before you begin walking, talk to your health...

Benefits for Assisted Living Available to Eligible Veterans or Surviving Spouse

Residents of the MorningStar Senior Living communities include veterans from all branches of the military and we are honored to serve them. As a MorningStar team member eloquently said, “Seniors speak powerfully to the fact that freedom comes at a cost. It requires that you choose to do the right thing which almost always includes sacrifice. Whether it’s time, money or comfort, those who came before us chose to sacrifice to build a better society.” When we meet a potential resident who is a veteran or a surviving spouse of a vet, and in need of assisted living ; we are pleased to direct them to a “Financial Concierge.” These financial services experts have the knowledge to ease and quicken the application process for “Aid & Attendance,” which is a benefit offered through the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs. Aid & Attendance benefits are a tax-free pension paid directly to a qualified veteran or their spouse in the form of monthly payments, which is subject to change annuall...
