A 5-Star Dining Service Designed to Please


A move to senior living can mean a lot of changes for a person. Our job at MorningStar at River Oaks is to make sure that experience is full of positive changes. One of the things we feel showcases our home is an outstanding food service, which is under the direction of our own Executive Chef. As a resident, you will be treated to a variety of seasonal menus featuring the freshest ingredients from high quality produce locally sourced whenever possible, or from our own resident-gardens.

You will also enjoy all-day, restaurant-style dining in our beautifully designed, relaxing dining room. For those times you wish to have an intimate dinner with friends or family, go ahead and reserve our private dining room. MorningStar’s flexible meal service even offers ready-to-go and finished-to-order meals for residents to take to their suites if they prefer a quiet meal alone.

Our chef is specifically trained in culinary skills and menu creations that appeal to seniors, and knows how to modify menus and recipes to accommodate food sensitivities and allergies as well as changing needs. A variety of nutritional choices allow residents to self-manage dietary habits and restrictions and include low sodium, gluten free, sugar free, no sugar added and low fat options. Moreover, as with all of our staff, our chef is taught the many soft skills of being a servant-leader as well as the value of building relationships with our residents and fellow team members.
 
MorningStar at River Oaks is licensed as a Type B community, and our qualified team members are available around the clock to assist residents with a variety of tasks to meet their individual needs. We will open to residents soon and are offering Move-in Specials. Along with providing the best assisted living in Houston, TX, we have individualized memory care, respite care, and trial stays from one week to a full month. Please contact us for further information.

The Advantages That Come With Aging

An article from National Geographic explores the concept that there are ways our health can improve as we grow older, if we are open to it. Michelle Feng, chief clinical officer at Executive Mental Health and a licensed psychologist specializing in geriatric psychology and medicine, explains it this way: “Everyone talks about aging as this decline, but aging is just living. It literally means you are alive.” The key may lie in how we think. Studies find that holding positive views on old age is related to better cognitive health. It may also result in fewer mental health issues such as depression and anxiety. Some studies even show those who think positively about the aging process live longer. One of the ways our health may improve with age is our ability to handle stress. Experts believe the experience we gain from going through various challenges throughout our lives prepares us with tried-and-true strategies on how to better manage today’s stressful situations. Moreover, a study i...

Knee Pain in Seniors

As we age, our knees take a beating. We use them to walk, stand and climb stairs, and they are used when we get up from a sitting or lying position. When our knees hurt, everyday tasks are harder to do. Chronic knee pain is often a form of arthritis that occurs when the cushioning cartilage protecting the knee joints starts to wear down. As more cartilage wears away, the space between the bones narrows resulting in bone rubbing against bone. Knee arthritis is a deteriorating condition, and in addition to pain, can cause deformities such as knock knees or bowlegs. Experts explain there are three forms of arthritis that affect the knee. The first is a degenerative joint disease called osteoarthritis; another is the autoimmune disease known as rheumatoid arthritis; and finally post-traumatic knee arthritis that happens with a history of injury or trauma. Factors increasing your risk for knee arthritis include the wear and tear that comes from age, being overweight, heredity, gender, and h...
