Legacy

Last year our father passed away and we knew our mom needed to go to an assisted living. There are so many in our area, and we toured them all. We couldn’t be happier with our choice at Legacy. The staff here are truly amazing with our mom and treat her like family. It’s very comforting to know our mom is being taken care of every day!

Trustworthy home for mom

My mother loves one of her assistants. She is kind, comforting, and loves my mom as well. The overall feel of the place is one of compassion and concern for those they are caring for. Mom has been there for a year and we have only had one incident where it took forever to get someone to respond to her call. Normally they are very quick. They have frequent activities, movies, visiting artists come in to perform. All in all a beautiful, comforting place to visit with my mom and I trust what they do to help care for her.

Very accommodating

The staff at Legacy Living is friendly and worked with mom and family to resolve concerns. The room size is good, enough to not feel squished in. Salon, fitness center theater are very convenient

Ratio of residents to caregivers is too high.

While the staff are very nice people, I feel they oversell the amount of service they can realistically provide. I say this based on the high number of residents to the low number of caregivers. The community does offer nice amenities and activities, excellent food and dining facilities, and a clean and beautiful environment. However, if your loved one needs a medium to high level of care this might not be the best choice.

Legacy Living Florence - Amazing Place

Legacy Living is the real deal. It is full of people who have a servant’s heart and places the needs of residents above their own and this results in residents that stay so happy. This gives the ultimate gift to families. They know that their family members are living their best lives, eating the best Whole Foods, and getting the best loving care.

Mom is in a great place!

Everyone at Legacy has been amazing. The staff is always smiling and greeting us by name. They have helped my mom with transitioning from her home that she shared with her husband to living alone at the facility and making her feel welcomed. My mom loves all of the activities. It’s great for her to stay busy. I would definitely recommend this place.

A great place for a single parent

My dad became ill and he knew his days were limited. He had my sister and I touring assisted living homes around Northern Kentucky, so we were prepared when he passed away. Unfortunately my father lost his battle with cancer, and without a doubt we knew that Legacy was the best place for her. We hated that she had to leave her home of 40 years but we knew she couldn’t stay in the house alone. The staff are absolutely amazing at Legacy and the residents there are so kind and welcoming. We wanted my mom to have a place to call home and feel comfortable in her new surrounds. Legacy is just the place for that! My sister and I can have piece of mind that my mom can still live independently while not being along. There are so many activities for the seniors, and there is always someone to talk to. We just love it here!

Always feels like home

Anytime I have been at Legacy to visit my loved one it always feels like home. No matter where you are in the community you will always see a smiling face and someone there asking if they can help with anything. This speaks volumes of the care that is delivered and the attention to details. The care team is amazing and always going above and beyond. Anytime I’m there I always make sure to eat in the restaurant with Mom because it is truly top notch cuisine and such a fun atmosphere seeing the Chefs and culinary team. Everyone is always smiling and just so friendly. My family can’t thank the Legacy Team enough for all they do each and every day!

Our families experience

Her townhouse is very spacious and very attractive. The staff bring her one meal a day for a small charge. She's not able to walk over to the dining room. She's not able to participate in any of the activities available to her. It's a nice place but I should have rented her a small house or condo. She doesn't want to move so we'll keep her there as long as we can.

Adjusting well to Legacy Living.

[name removed] is very happy there and is adjusting very well. He has met so many nice people, both residents and staff. He enjoys the food and likes the variety of meal options. My siblings and I are happy that he is in a safe environment.

Facility is very clean and inviting, team members very friendly. They quickly learned my mother in laws name as well as ours and go out of their way to make sure she has everything that you need. The food at the restaurant is outstanding!

Best Caring All-around Staff

The caregivers at Legacy Living of Florence are amazing. They help in all area such as dining, trash pick up, laundry and everything in-between. We would absolutely recommend them to other families!! I recommended Legacy to many who have already moved in.

Lovely facility with a caring staff

The positive atmosphere of Legacy truly won me over during my search for a new home for Dad. The staff all knew him by name within his first week of residency and have remained consistently attentive, kind, and caring. The facility is clean, bright, and well maintained, with plenty of green space (including a lovely center courtyard with seating for gatherings). The residents are also friendly and quite social. Dad seems happy, and I couldn't ask for a more perfect place for him!

Thorough, kind, loving, patient, conscientious.

The caregivers are kind and good to the residents. The director of the caregiver team is good with the any changes in medication and making sure the new protocol is in place. The directors pitch in to help wherever needed, even busing tables! Clean environment with happy employees.

Top notch assisted and independent living community!

Legacy Living has cracked the code! As a physical therapist, I am in and out of assisted living/independent living and memory care units all of the time. Legacy Living takes into account all of the needs of seniors, who are transitioning away from their traditional home. The building is beautiful and includes amenities like a game room, pub (with functional taps!), chapel, movie theater, 24/7 gym and even their own restaurant! The restaurant serves phenomenal food that rotates seasonally. If you are searching for the right assisted, independent or memory care community, your search can stop here. Legacy leadership has heard the traditional hardships of seniors moving to a senior community and has delivered a community that goes above and beyond to serve local seniors!
