MorningStar at River Oaks’ Approach to Memory Care


Along with a variety of well-designed floor plans for assisted living, Houston’s MorningStar at River Oaks has suites for those suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and other memory impairments. Our team feels privileged to provide highly specialized, individualized care for seniors in the onset of the disease right through to the most advanced stages.

MorningStar at River Oaks’ resident-directed approach to memory care respects the dignity and value of each person and supports choice and independence as much as possible. All our memory care suites are within our Reflections Neighborhood, which is designed to accommodate the needs of our special residents.

Memory care residents can move freely about in a safe and secure environment reserved just for them. We offer three daily meals served in our comfy dining room where residents and staff eat together. In addition, residents are provided 24-hour care with daily health monitoring, medication management and the expertise of a full-time licensed nurse.

MorningStar’s memory care comes from a deep understanding of the disease, and we create an individualized care plan for each resident based on their background, preferences and abilities. Our compassionate, professional staff uses multi-sensory cues to calm and awaken memories and to support capabilities. All residents are encouraged to participate in a variety of purposeful activities that include music, life skills, art, entertainment and exercise as well as our special events and outings.

Please visit our website for more information about our loving community. If you like what you see, contact us to set up a tour. We understand families feel traumatized by the sobering diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia, and we want you to know we are here to support you as well as your loved one.

The Advantages That Come With Aging

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...

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.
