MorningStar at Jordan Creek assisted living and memory care community is eagerly awaiting our Grand Opening in March. Our whole team is working hard to make sure that from day one our residents feel comfortable and pleased to make their new home with us.
One of the things we know that is sure to be a hit is our excellent food. Each resident is provided with three daily meals that are meticulously prepared by our own Executive Chef. Our meals are prepared largely from scratch and are modified to accommodate low sodium, sugar free, no sugar added, vegetarian and low-fat diets along with seasonal menus. MorningStar also makes it a priority to use BrainWise ingredients in our meals. BrainWise super foods include those that have been recognized by the medical community to support brain health and have a high concentration of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory compounds. Many of the common items we incorporate into our meals include items like acai berries, Omega 3 fats, dark chocolate and dark greens. All meals are served restaurant-style in our dining room; and for intimate dinners, we have a private dining room. In addition we have an onsite bistro. For our memory care residents, we feel that dining is as much about socializing as it is about nutrition. MorningStar has lots of experience caring for those with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia and we understand their abilities at the table may be compromised. This is why we serve lots of finger foods; softened and puréed, thickened liquids; and easy-to-recognize balanced meals packed with nutrients. Furthermore, team members sit with residents to help make mealtime enjoyable and encourage their appetite. We also serve meals “family-style” from serving bowls and platters like we do at home. Family member are always welcome to join us. MorningStar at Jordan Creek proudly provides the very best in senior living with our unique mission statement of “to honor, to serve, to invest.” With a foundation built on honoring God, valuing all seniors and selecting staff with a felt calling to serve, we create a true home for residents amid a beautiful setting. Please schedule a tour to discover the newest community in the West Des Moines area.

At MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care at Mountain Shadows, we offer 45 beautiful, all-inclusive private suites for assisted living in a choice of studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom configurations. Our monthly rental fee is based on square footage as well as the location within the building and view, and is designed for seniors 62 years and older.
If you are worrying about getting the level of care that you need in our community, don’t. Before you even move in, you will sit down with our Wellness Director, who is also a licensed nurse, to discuss your current health and review your medical history to determine the type of care you need. We offer five levels of care that provide assistance with the Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) as well as various auxiliary services, both medical and non-medical that are priced a la carte. During our assessment, we will discuss your personal preferences and normal routines so we can put together a care plan that is customized for you. And again, don’t worry about things changing after you are a resident, as we regularly re-evaluate what you need to accommodate the changes. Also, if you are wondering, couples are welcome at MorningStar and can share a private suite surrounded by their own, familiar possessions. Or if you would like, you are welcome to share a suite with a close friend or relative (must be of the same sex). We also offer respite care for up to 30 days, or a “trial stay” for as short as a week or up to a full month. It is our privilege to serve seniors and we foster a culture where kindness and authenticity are paramount. Furthermore, while rooted in Judeo-Christian beliefs, we welcome all faiths among our residents and team members. The unique mission statement of MorningStar at Mountain Shadows, “to honor, to serve, to invest,” sets us apart from other senior living communities. Our foundation is built upon honoring God, valuing all seniors, and investing in staff with a felt calling to serve. Dedicated to creating a real home for residents within a beautiful setting, we encourage you to see for yourself the finest assisted living in beautiful Colorado Springs. MorningStar at Jordan Creek offers loads of amenities and services for our residents including our signature Wellness Program. Committed to the idea that there is always a reason to start the day confident in the promise it holds, our program strives to engage the mind, body and spirit. We recognize it is important for seniors to continue learning and contributing.
MorningStar’s Wellness Program is designed to enhance health and wellness, stimulate your brain and encourage connection through a range of physical, intellectual, spiritual and social activities. Each day our Life Enrichment team will present creative ways to help residents keep active and productive for man’s good and God’s glory. By offering such a wide span of activities and programs, we are certain our residents will find something that peaks their interest. For example at another MorningStar community, their monthly calendar list the following activities offered on one day: Our Daily Bread prayer meeting; Morning Stretch and Exercise; Caregiver Support Group; Creative Arts; Dominoes; Rummikub; and The Evening Movie. Also if we do not already offer it, we encourage our talented residents to form and lead special interest clubs and activities. We also offer special activities that may include trips to local cultural events, historic museums and scenic drives.
