MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care of Albuquerque was excellent on all levels, but it was expensive. I just looked at the assisted living side. It's a newer facility, so everything is really nice facility-wise. It's all well maintained, bright, and shiney. I think it's been open for about less than five years, so it was a very nice facility. If it wasn't so expensive, it may have been my number two. Price-wise, it's just too much. It was going to be at least $12000, and it would probably end up being more. They have amenities like barbershops and beauty salon. Morningstar was top notch all the way down the line, but it was pricey. They had in-house physical therapy and occupational therapy. They had a barber/beauty salon, and they had the same type of activities as other places. It was really nice. We had so many options in terms of floor plans that were available. It's conveniently located for us, my family, and my parents' doctors. I got to talk to one of their residents, and she had only been there for about 2-3 months. She said they take really good care of her. It appeared to me that the staff took good care of their residents, based on my interaction with one of the residents and that was without anybody else from the facility around. I just ran into her out into the courtyard in front of the facility, and struck up a conversation.

I was very impressed with MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care of Albuquerque. They do a very good job. The apartments were in good condition, they had different types of rooms you could select, however, at the time they had no availability. The staff was very good, she was excellent. I've had friends who have had loved ones there and they were impressed. So I'm going by their recommendations. They have a whole list of activities and a regular weekly schedule of things to keep the patient involved. Very good. I like their space, their outdoor availability for a patient, it's all on one floor. However, the drawback is, it's very far from my home. To go visit would be a 30-minute drive.

Our family really appreciate the number of staff that are always on duty and especially that the culinary staff are separate from the attendants providing personal care. The staff are fabulous!

I saw Morning Star of Albuquerque. The rooms were nice, and very clean. I saw a lot of interactions between the staff and patients, activities like games, a lot of one-on-one, or one-on-two involvements, and the staff during the day and in the evening seemed to be involved with the residents. The food seemed good. It was very upbeat, it was not depressing, it was colorful, and it was clean. It was the best assisted living facility I saw. They had an outdoor area, and that was nice also.
