CEO of MorningStar Discusses His Commitment to Religiously Based Senior Care
“I had a dream to start a senior housing company that was defined by the human touch. I wanted to re-create my grandmother’s house, a place where one can go and feel a sense of family.”
MorningStar’s founder and CEO, Ken Jaeger, has had 15 years of executive leadership experience and thoughtful observation of the senior housing industry. Jaeger’s dream senior housing community focuses on the power of relationships. Jaeger designed a three-pillared mission upon which MorningStar remains grounded. Set to open in December 2022, MorningStar at Laurelhurst Retirement Home and Assisted Living community in Portland, Oregon, is built to reflect these pillars for which Ken Jaeger established his bold brand of senior living rooted in Judeo-Christian principles.
MorningStar at Laurelhurst is a retirement community with a strong commitment to moral values and ethics. Within Ken Jaeger's three-pillar mission, MorningStar’s business practices focus on honoring God within their care and relationships. We emphasize the value of all seniors as gifted and contributing individuals and we invest in our team's ability to serve well. We commit to creating a community that promotes a healthy, engaged lifestyle while providing security and independence. We retain employees who use creative minds and compassionate hearts to serve residents with the best senior care.
Since our first privileged year of service, the deep and lasting impression we want to make is this: We are a radically relational, senior-loving home where residents are seen as heroes. By weaving all the threads of a better story, by knowing our purpose is greater than any one of us, MorningStar is resolved to elevate the world of business and leave a legacy of benevolence and changed lives.
