The Lantern at Morning Pointe Russell

The Lantern at Morning Pointe Russell, located in Russell, KY offers assisted living & memory care.

When memory begins to change, families often find themselves navigating unfamiliar territory. What matters most in those moments is finding a place that feels safe, supportive, and truly understands your loved one. 
The Lantern at Morning Pointe Russell is a dedicated Alzheimer's and dementia memory care community located in Russell, near the Ohio River, King's Daughters Medical Center in Ashland, and the communities of Ashland, Ironton (Ohio), and Huntington (West Virginia) — serving families throughout Greenup County and the Tri-State region. 
Every detail of our single-story, home-like community is purposefully designed for residents living with memory loss — from the layout and lighting to the secure, familiar daily rhythms that help people feel safe, calm, and known. 
Licensed nurses are on campus around the clock, with 24-hour access to personalized care services, medication management, and pharmacist-led medication reviews. Our team is trained in the Best Friends™ approach — a relationship-centered philosophy that treats every resident as a valued friend, honoring their life story and individuality — and the Teepa Snow Positive Approach to Care™, skill-based dementia training that helps associates understand how the brain changes with dementia so they can respond with confidence, calm, and compassion. Our Meaningful Day™ program is built around each resident's past experiences, interests, and abilities — because the things that made your loved one who they are still matter here. Residents enjoy restaurant-style dining with specially prepared meals by our culinary team. Caregiver support groups and pharmacist-led medication reviews walk beside families throughout the journey. 
Morning Pointe of Russell — our assisted living community — is right next door on the same campus. 
Founded in 1997 and locally led for nearly 30 years, Morning Pointe Senior Living manages and operates more than 40 assisted living and memory care communities across the Southeast — including right here in Russell.
