MorningStar at West San Jose

What a wonderful new assisted living facility in our community! I have visited many times with my aging mother. The dining facilities, food, outdoor common areas both on the ground floor and rooftop as well as all the activities from movies to daily exercise classes are all super appealing. The staff all help to make it a warm and welcoming place. Ling, who's takes care of all Community Relations does an amazing job creating a welcoming environment for those evaluating the facility.

Morning Star Senior Living is a lovely atmosphere with incredibly friendly and welcoming staff. The staff are very accommodating, caring, and genuinely aim to please. The interior spaces are designed for comfort, beauty, and utility. They offer an array of engaging and exciting activities, such as ceramic painting, bake your own brownies, and T’ai Chi. Our visit was memorable. We were greeted with such warmth that we immediately felt at home.

My uncle has been so happy since moving to MorningStar. It’s a vibrant community! The variety of food is amazing with every meal being both delicious and nutritious. The memory care program has been a game changer for him, providing the perfect balance of care and independence. He enjoys the fun activity program, which keeps him entertained and engaged every day. The building at Self is modern bright and always, and Peebly cleaned. The staff are upbeat and energetic, bringing so much positivity to the environment. One of His favorite parts of the day is attending the exercise and movement classes, which have really improved his mood and physical health. We couldn’t be more grateful for the level of care and the vibrant atmosphere they provide at MorningStar.

My Mother was one of the first residents to move into MorningStar West San Jose - she arrived in February. Words simply cannot describe how wonderful her - and our family - experience has been. There is so much kindness, so much genuine caring, so much laughter, so many beautiful friendships, and so much fun. It truly radiates goodness. The staff are outstanding - each and every one - there is not a single staff member that does not know my Mother personally and who does not go above and beyond to help or just be there - because they care and because want to. It is a family - and everyone feels this way. Exceptional corporate management is so important. The Executive Director and her team are among the best and most highly respected in the Bay area - she has a gift for creating a remarkable culture of excellence, compassion and passion - and this is so evident in this beautiful place. Corporate leadership is outstanding and exemplify the beautiful vision and culture they are committed to providing. Leadership is fully invested and completely supportive in ensuring the operations and building, Executive Director, her team, and residents are supported with the recourses needed - and there in time of need. It is a remarkable company with leadership embodying every aspect of their commitment to their vision. The residents are equally tremendous. So many wonderful people with exceptional life experiences, and interesting and exciting backgrounds. Everyone is committed to making everyone feel welcome and included. New residents are reached out to and invited to join in - everyone cares about each other. Meals are so much fun with everyone, as are the crafts, the nightly movies, outings, lectures, exercise classes, entertainment, games, musicians and so much more - and if someone has an interest in doing something, it is done! It has been so enriching and so much fun to get to know everyone and their families and see these incredible friendships form. The facility is beautiful. The furnishings and interior design are sophisticated and top quality. The apartments are oversized, light and bright and are beautifully appointed. There is easy access to all amenities and parking which makes life so much easier for residents to enjoy. The safety aspect is particularly outstanding. The outside perimeter is fully fenced and secure, there is a concierge that ensures arriving visitors are just that and is there to help residents, the parking garage is secured and monitored. This is so different than so many other places I visited. There is care 24 - 7 should your loved one need it - and it comes immediately. Residents can scale their care needs as required - and be as independent for as long as they can. It is truly wonderful and so appreciated. Everyone looks after each other and is concerned for each other just as family does. I cannot say enough good things about MorningStar West San Jose. Our experience has been so exceptional. Choosing a Senior Living Community is difficult. I looked at over 25 facilities. My Mother is so happy with her choice. This has been such an exceptional experience on every level.
