Assisted Living Encourages a Healthy, Balanced Lifestyle

As a vibrant 55+ community, MorningStar of Pasadena offers 149 bright suites offering seniors a choice of independent living or assisted living. Our independent living is designed for active seniors who love the idea of someone else handling the maintenance and housekeeping giving them more time to socialize, travel and pursue their hobbies and interests. Assisted living is for seniors who require a little help with activities of daily living (ADLs) to improve their quality of life. 

Many residents report being surprised by how full their lives are after a move into an assisted living community. Moreover rather than lose their independence as many fear such a move would do, most are pleased to discover once they get the daily care they need, they are more ready than ever to lead productive lives.   


Community life solves the problem of loneliness as well as problems with meal prep many elderly adults experience, often resorting to frozen meals or fast food. MorningStar residents enjoy beautifully prepared meals, served restaurant-style and eaten in a relaxed, community setting. No longer driving? No worries as we offer scheduled transportation to area shopping malls as well as trips to the doctors and running errands.  


We also know it is important for seniors to continue learn, to contribute, which is why we offer a wide range of meaningful wellness programs, activities and entertainment. Moreover if we do not have a program or activities that peaks your interest or offer a hobby you would love to explore, we encourage you to start a club.   


Another advantage to communities like MorningStar of Pasadena is we offer both independent living as assisted living. If you start out with us in independent living, you can adjust the level of care you need on a temporary basis or on a more permanent basis. All residents enjoy our luxury amenities and concierge services as well as our complement of wellness programs. Please visit our website to learn more about the finest senior living Pasadena offers.

Medical experts say to ensure a loved one gets the proper care, it is important to see to it that the hospital has a complete medical history. Notes and documents can be completed and gathered now then updated as health changes occur. For starters, the hospital will want a “next of kin” contact for the patient so decide beforehand who that will be. Now go through the list of medications your parents take and make sure they are all together in one location.
