August 29, 2022 by Karla A in Caregiver jobs

MorningStar Senior Living is a company of servant-minded leaders committed to advancing a mission of honoring God, valuing seniors, and investing in our team’s ability to serve.  Several of our communities in the Phoenix area are currently recruiting men and women who understand the significance of serving others to fill various roles within our homes. 

We seek men and women with big hearts who would love to work for a company that shares their values and wants to grow professionally as well as personally.  As one team member explains, "The seniors teach me to love more, have compassion, appreciation, and respect. The shared memories of our seniors help us to understand life, stimulate our development, and help us to evaluate ourselves positively. Respecting the rights and dignity of our seniors is the first step in establishing a satisfactory relationship between them and us." 

From the start, MorningStar’s Founder/CEO, Ken Jaeger, had specific designs on how to foster the ultimate environment for the well-being of seniors as well as an environment where employees would flourish.  Thus, we are committed to building a team of service professionals who feel called, connected and empowered.  Guided by a mission statement that includes investing generously in our team’s ability to serve, we provide all employees training in our proprietary service excellence initiative called “Radiance.”  Also, as we provide memory care, team members receive training in Lavender Sky, our holistic approach and philosophy to memory care that helps staff better understand Alzheimer’s and other dementia-related diseases.  

In addition to training and a generous financial compensation package, MorningStar offers a host of other benefits including comprehensive insurance coverage. This includes health insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance, telehealth coverage, life insurance, and supplemental insurance (disability, accident, critical illness). At MorningStar, we strive to make sure our team members are protected against most of life’s unexpected costs.

If you feel called to serve, please consider applying to one of our rewarding positions in the Phoenix area. Current open positions include Caregiver, Server, Maintenance Director, Concierge, Medication Care Manager/QMAP, Wellness Nurse, Housekeeper and more.  MorningStar’s website has a Careers Here page with the full list of current openings, job descriptions and an online application. 

MorningStar Senior Living exemplifies the very best in senior living with a unique mission statement “to honor, to serve, to invest.” Our foundation is built on honoring God, valuing all seniors and investing in staff with a felt calling to offer seniors lives of comfort, joy and wellness.

Join MorningStar and Make a Difference in the Lives of Our Residents

April 18, 2022 by Karla A in Caregiver jobs

At MorningStar Senior Living, we think seniors are heroes and they deserve to be treated with respect and enjoy a lifestyle of comfort and wellness.  To help us provide the finest care to our cherished residents, we are currently seeking team members with a calling to serve seniors for various positions at our Phoenix area communities. Positions include caregiver jobs along with support staff such as maintenance and housekeepers.  Just some of the current openings are Care Manager, Cook, Dining Room Server, Medication Care Manager/QMAP, Housekeeper, Life Enrichment Coordinator, and more.

People working in senior living are often surprised to discover how pleasurable it is to serve seniors and how much they learn from it.  After all, if we take the time to listen, seniors have plenty of valuable life lessons to pass on to the younger generation.  Over the span of a lifetime, they have gained a wealth of experience and knowledge, which provides them with a unique perspective.  And older folks typically love having someone around who is willing to listen to them and to look at pictures and cherished mementos from the past.  

When you hang out with seniors, you get the chance to hear about their various backgrounds and interesting careers and to be inspired by their life-long perseverance.  They can help you see what is important in life, and you use their life lessons to develop more rewarding relationships with your own family.  Also, you will come away with a better understanding of the aging process and increased empathy for those suffering from illnesses and disabilities.     

MorningStar is proud to support our team members with some of the most generous benefits in the industry. Compensation starts with competitive wages, and bonus or incentive opportunities (depending on position).  In addition, employees are eligible for paid holidays, paid vacation, paid sick time, birthday appreciation day, 401k plan availability, health savings account availability, uniforms, training and advancement opportunities. At MorningStar, we strive to make sure our team is paid well for the valuable services they provide our company.  Please visit our website to search open positions at our communities in Phoenix, Glendale, Fountain Hills, and Peoria, AZ. While you are there, visit our communities’ home pages to learn more about us.

The New Year is the Perfect Time for Change

December 30, 2021 by Karla A

The New Year is always a time for renewal, and after what the world has gone through during the pandemic, many of us are ready for a change. This includes everyone who feels gratitude for what they have, and a renewed commitment to help others. Philosophers, religious leaders, and learned men and women through time all appear to agree with the sentiment that helping others reaps its own reward. As Robert Louis Stevenson said, "Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant," or the quote by Abraham Lincoln who said, "To ease another's heartache is to forget one's own,” there is a universal understanding of true happiness. 

Martin Luther King Jr. urges us to serve with the following: "Life’s persistent and most urgent question is, ‘what are you doing for others?'" Working for a community like one of Phoenix’s MorningStar Senior Living communities, can provide just such an opportunity. To start with, you will join a team of exceptional individuals who understand it is a privilege to help seniors lead the best lives possible. 

Our Phoenix homes, MorningStar at Arcadia, MorningStar of Fountain Hills, MorningStar at Arrowhead, and MorningStar at Golden Ridge, seek individuals with big hearts to fill various caregiver jobs. Open positions range from care managers to cooks, dining room servers, housekeepers, dishwashers and more. While qualifications vary within our different roles, each job gives a person the chance to serve others and to get the satisfaction knowing they are making a difference. As we understand our team is vital to our success, we reward staff members with competitive wages; comprehensive benefits including healthcare and holiday, vacation and sick time; flexible schedules; and training.    

Read MorningStar’s Founder/CEO, Ken Jaeger’s inspiring words when he speaks to MorningStar team members and other groups on living a life of selfless giving: “Don’t wait to serve. Serve now. Give now. Get involved somewhere. It will make you a better person.” To learn more about our Phoenix caregiver jobs, our company and our homes, visit MorningStar website’s “Career” page.
