Independent and Assisted Living at MorningStar of Pasadena


Many seniors and their families are confused as to what exactly assisted living offers and how it differs from independent living. At MorningStar of Pasadena, we explain our senior living supports residents as they age with freedom and choices, resort-style amenities and best-in-class dining and hospitality. Spacious suites come in a variety of well-designed floor plans and configurations that are sure to meet your needs. Wellness programs and activities help keep residents socially engaged and offer opportunities for personal growth.

MorningStar of Pasadena has undergone recent renovations and offers beautiful common areas both inside and out. Amenities include all-day dining, fitness center, bistro, community kitchens, club rooms, community store, billiards room and lovely courtyard with strolling paths. For your safety, our entire community is designed to facilitate safe mobility with wide doorways and halls as well as suites equipped with handicap-accessible bathrooms and grab bars, and 24/7 emergency call systems.

Independent living is designed specifically for seniors who want to and can live without any assistance. If you move into our community as an independent living resident, you will enjoy predicable budgeting, concierge services and community of friends. Suites have high-end finishes and a kitchenette with refrigerator and microwave to prepare the meals you want to eat on your own. Weekly housekeeping gives you the time to pursue your interests. All that’s missing are your personal furnishings and treasures—even the furry kind (yes, we’re pet friendly).

For our assisted living residents, we work hard to ensure you get the personalized services needed to help maintain your independence. After the decision to move to Morningstar, assisted living residents meet with our Wellness Director to assess their current health, review medical history and learn about their preferences. From there we create a Personalized Service Plan based on five levels of care. Various auxiliary services, both medical and non-medical, are priced a la carte.

Our trusted independent living and assisted living in Pasadena, CA provides seniors a refreshing, maintenance-free lifestyle. Please visit our website for more information about MorningStar of Pasadena, and give us a call to set up a tour or ask about availability. Don’t forget to ask about our great Move-in Specials.

MorningStar takes tremendous pride in the reputation we have earned for excellence and authenticity since our inception in 2003. We believe the human capacity to grow, to learn and to contribute is ageless; and we act upon that truth daily, as we care for, inspire, and love the residents under our roof.

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...
