Absolutely not
Their "memory care" center has no actual memory care. They have no actual nurses on staff. It's all what they call med techs. No certification to give medications. The person giving your parents their medication is paid $[fee removed] per hour. They don't know what to look for if there's a problem. CNA's? They call them CM's because they have no training there either.

Looked at Morningstar 1st of the 5 facilities I toured. Knew immediately MS was the place for our old mom. Needed to do my due diligence to be able to sell MS to my sister who was traveling. Other facilities were too large, overdone, mix of assisted living & memory care. MS is so bright & cheery. Wide hallways. Wonderful colors. 2 floors replicating dining room, activities, patios. Small number of residents, only memory care. Staff are incredibly nice & show great concern & care for residents. She acclimated much faster than we imagined. She told me staff is so nice & always checking on her. Involved in activities.Re communication. At first there was confusion w/procedures, processes, how things are organized. On list of things to bring, a “O” for optional would have helped. Also, very overwhelming decision & easy not to remember things. A simple write up of what to expect would have made for easier transition. With that said we're happy we chose MS.

Wonderful Place for Patients with Dementia
I recently had the opportunity to visit Morning Star San Thomas Memory Care Community, thanks to MJ, who invited me to learn more about the facility. As a Social Worker at SGC rehab, I was truly impressed by the exceptional care and support they provide. One standout feature is their innovative Lavender Program, designed to offer therapeutic activities that promote calmness and well-being for residents with dementia. This program, along with their personalized care, enhances the quality of life for residents. The staff goes above and beyond in offering individualized attention, ensuring both residents and their families feel supported. They take the time to educate families and provide the resources needed for navigating dementia care. Morning Star San Thomas offers a warm, compassionate environment where residents are treated like family. It’s a community that truly prioritizes the well-being of its residents, and I highly recommend it for anyone seeking top-tier memory care

Staff is much more engaged with residents. The residents are also more active and verbal. I also noticed that families visit a lot more. Nursing staff keeps me updated when they see me. They are very proactive.

Frequently Asked Questions
about MorningStar at San Tomas

MorningStar at San Tomas offers Studio and Semi-Private. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored MorningStar at San Tomas 6.8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
