MorningStar of Mission Viejo’s Approach to Senior Living


MorningStar of Mission Viejo is a part of the MorningStar Senior Living Company, which takes a unique, holistic approach to retirement communities. We are proud of our reputation for excellence and authenticity in why we serve and how we serve; and hold true to the belief that the human capacity to grow, to learn and to contribute is ageless.

Our company has thrived and expanded since its conception in 2003, when Founder/CEO Ken Jaeger started the company with the intention to “cast a new light” on senior living. From there our mission statement reads: Honor God in our business practices and relationships; Value all seniors as gifted and contributing individuals; and Invest generously in our team’s ability to serve well.

Even the name MorningStar has meaning regarding the kind of home we want to offer residents. Mr. Jaeger explains, “I had been searching for a company name for months. I wanted something that was alive and comforting, but offered a powerful, guiding force—even more, a name that spoke to the passion I have to bring loving care to seniors.” The name—MorningStar—comes from a verse where Jesus said, “I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star” (Revelation 22:16).

At the Mission Viejo community, we offer independent living and assisted living suites in a range of floor plans and configurations. Amenities include all-day, restaurant-style dining; fitness center; art studio; billiards room; theater; sky terraces; scheduled transportation; and more. For assisted living residents, services include 24-hour care managers, a full-time licensed nurse (on call 24/7), electronic health records and medication management. In addition, our Reflections Neighborhood provides specialized care to those living with memory impairment.

As a resident, you will have opportunities for new friendships, predictable budgeting, wellness programs, and the chance to relax and play in beautiful surroundings.
