FAQ About Manor Lake Assisted Living & Memory Care
Morning Star Village hosts a wide range of residents; many residents who live here are very independent, yet we also have residents who have aged in place and need a bit more care. Our median age is right around 84; however, we have residents in their mid-sixties all the way up to centenarians!
We have a pretty lively group of residents who can be very animated and make it fun to come to work each day. Our residents enjoy attending group outings on our bus, playing card games and BINGO, as well as listening to a variety of live music opportunities in house. Social hours and craft projects are well attended and we host evening and weekend activities as well.
Morning Star Village is conveniently located in the heart of Rockford, just a couple miles north of the State Street intersection, where many popular stores are located.
Morning Star Village has bus service to errands and doctor appointments on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 8:30 am to 4:00 pm. We tend to use our bus on the remaining days for activity outings, such as shopping or dinner outings.

Morning Star Village does allow small pets that are up to date on their immunizations and are well-behaved, provided the resident is able to care for the pet entirely. Pets must be leashed when outside of the apartment and are not allowed to enter the dining areas. Morning Star Village offers ample outdoor space for pets to frolic and enjoy the outdoors.
Morning Star Village requires a minimum of 8 hours of ongoing training each year for our direct care staff. Topics include caring for those with dementia, infection control, resident rights, disaster preparedness and fall prevention.
