My best friend was here for rehab after two spinal surgeries. They failed to listen to him repeatedly ask about a lump in his backside. They tell him to massage it out. Turns out it's another abscess. PLEASE LISTEN TO YOUR PATIENTS.

Since my Mom has entered Morningside assisted living, she is very happy. She loves all her caretakers and has made great friendships with many of the residence. If my Mom is happy then I am happy. Special shout outs to Patty the events planner who has a heart of gold! She loves her residents and makes their life happy and fun. I can’t say enough about Irene and Jason who I think are the best RN’s I have encountered! Our family loves you and appreciate how you care for our Mom. Stella and Juanita are just a couple of aids that have excellent care. I can’t name all of you. Just know our family loves you all and pray God’s blessings on you all. You are all special to us because you love our Mother.

Morning Side has been a blessing to our family. Our mom loves the staff and they love her. She enjoys the people and activities. It has helped her blossom. Some of the staff members go above and Beyond to help the senior adults adjust and live a better lifestyle. We especially love Patty the activity coordinator and the fun activities. Jason and Irene are some of her favorite nurses.
