What Our Clients Say About Us...
Eight months ago it became clear that my widowed 83-year old mother could not live alone due to dementia – which after a recent stroke sped her decline. With a focus on memory care, my two sisters and I visited three facilities before contacting Morningview. Thank goodness we did, as we were getting very worried about the future.
From our first encounter on the phone with Rachel, to then walking into this charming brick building, to then being greeted by Victoria at the front desk, to then meeting the Executive Director, Mitchell, and the entire care team, to then touring the clean and odorless rooms, to then see smiling residents interacting and laughing …we knew we had found the right place after an exhaustive search. This place felt like a home, not a facility, and took away any worries we had about placing a loved one in assisted living.
All the things we were looking for fell right into place. In addition, we felt the rate was reasonable and was happy to know that Medicaid would be accepted once we secured it (a director is assisting us with this process, which we really appreciate!).
Over the past eight months my family continues to be impressed with the loving care our mother receives from the entire care team (which includes the maintenance men, Harold and Josh), the overall upbeat energy, the thorough updates, the extremely quick response time to any questions/concerns, and the amount of activities and events. Our mother receives manicures and haircuts, too! In addition, when our special needs brother passed away shortly after our mother moved to Morningview, the staff went above-and-beyond to care for a grieving mother.
We are truly blessed and would recommend Morningview to any family searching for a great place for a loved one to call home. Thank you, Morningview, for providing our entire family with peace and comfort.

We moved my mother in-law who has later stages of dementia from one facility to Morning View. It was a hard transition for her, but everyone here was right there with me helping her feel comfortable. All the employees are so very helpful. I love knowing my mother in-law is in a safe caring environment now. I would recommend this place to anyone who’s loved ones need assistance.

My parents both live here. The staff is kind, professional and helpful. I appreciate that during the pandemic they have been diligent in containing outbreaks and honest about the unfortunate happenings. The rooms are spacious, clean and modern. Mom doesn’t complain too much about the food. Dad loves it. Although they are no longer married the staff has made our unique situation work! Dementia/memory care are difficult path to travel but I feel that Morningview does a great job. Thank you!

I’ve been at Morning View for six years. It is a very nice facility. The staff takes great care of the residents
— Cindy Samo
I’ve been to a lot of assisted living facilities over the years for work. Morningview is much different. A lot of them smell like air freshener covering up something awful. Morningview doesn’t have a smell at all, it is easily the cleanest assisted living community I have ever been inside.
On top of all this, the staff and management are second to none. The residents are well taken care of, and always in high spirits. My first impression of Morningview was strictly based on the cleanliness, but my overall opinion of the place continues to be overwhelmingly positive every time I am there. The people who work there are genuinely passionate about what they do, and they treat the residents like family. There is a stark difference between people who work to live and people who live to work. The staff and management at Morningview are most certainly the latter.
I am absolutely taken aback by the amount of outings, field trips, and awesome activities that happen at Morningview. Where else can the residents get the chance to hang out with a sloth?!? They go to the beach, they take outings to sporting events, and there is always a party or game night for residents, friends, and family to look forward to at Morningview.
It’s right in the heart of downtown South Bend. The residents are cared for like family, the facility is cleaner than most 4-star hotels I’ve stayed in, and the vibe is warm and inviting. If you have a loved one in need of memory care assisted living services, or independent assisted living services, I cannot recommend Morningview highly enough.
But don’t take my word for it, do yourself and your loved ones a huge favor, call and schedule a visit. See why Morningview is head and shoulders above the rest.

My aunt was at this facility when my cousins could not manage her dementia. It was a very hard decision for the family to make because in our culture we take care of our parents until the end. Unfortunately it was just impossible since they all work and have families of their own. they all wanted her to be happy and safe. At morning view my Aunt is safe, they treat her like family and every single time we visit we see how wonderful she is treated and cared for, they couldn’t have picked a better place for her to spend the rest of her life.
— Nancy Medina
We have our grandma in Morningview and she has been very happy. The staff is friendly and warm, from the front desk, throughout the building. The activities schedule is full and the resident artwork decorates the walls. They paint, craft, and create, listen to music, play games, play trivia and have ice cream socials. I know all of this because grandma has been a part of the Morningview ALF family for nearly 3 years. The facility has a clean, industrial-chic look. Many rooms are newly renovated. We are glad Grandma has had a pleasant environment in which to spend her golden years.

Emily is a joy to work with. My mom is here and staff members have been a delight to work with
— Jessica Banks
Morningview welcomed dad kindly. They made the transition from home to assisted living very easy and helped we the family every step of the way. The staff cares greatly for their residents and they watch the health and welfare of them highly. We appreciate all who are helping dad in the front line and those behind the scenes make a high difference too. Thank you for all that you do.

When we realized that mom needed more care than we could provide for her at home we started visiting area assisted living facilities. We were limited to our selection because she is on Medicaid . We walked through several facilities before we found Morningview. We visited Morningview twice before deciding that this place felt right. The other facilities felt very sterile and very much like, a facility and not a home. The aesthetics of the building are old brick, wood floors, warm lighting. Of course the looks are not enough to make a decision for the well being and care of a loved one. It is what Morningview is as a whole. Nursing care 24/7. A dedicated care team that includes the aides that interact with the residents everyday. The dietary staff that know the residents by name. The nurse on the floor that sees to the residents needs from medications to accessing a them should an episode occur and reaching out to family keeping them informed. Victoria, usually the first smile you see when you enter the building. That young lady has the pulse on that building. She is a gem. And of course Mitch the director and his crew. They are the most engaged, caring, knowledgeable, and helpful group. (Forgive me for not naming all of you)
From concerns with paperwork to meeting with you about the well being and improvement of quality of life for your loved one, they will always have the time for you.
Mom has been there over 2 yrs and even in her stage of dementia she knows Morningview and the residents and the staff as her home.
Morningview has helped me find ways to benefit mom’s well being from getting her hair done every Monday to getting her showered and dressed for the day on schedule. And the efforts Morningview makes creating activity events for the pleasure of their residents.
Any concerns I have they walk me through a favorable end result.

We toured the facility looking for the best place for my mom (79). My wife and I loved the level of attention the residence were receiving from the staff. I don’t know what was for dinner but it sure smelled good!
