Kind, compassionate care

There were a few times where communication wasn't perfect, but overall, the staff were very kind and understanding. I don't believe any place is 100% perfect 100% of the time, but my family and I felt that The Legacy of NMB did a very good job caring for[name removed].

Great Tour

We toured with the sales director, Lewis. He was friendly and knowledgeable. We definitely felt at home while visiting the Legacy. I trust that the Legacy will be a good fit for dad when the time is right.

An overall amazing community!!

Excellent service from all staff and Administration. Very respectful, friendly and engaging to all residents. Prompt reporting, preparation for upcoming activities/events and any issues that need to be discussed. The activities are varied, consistent and well attended due to staff encouragement with residents. The dining experience is fresh and creative in atmosphere. The food has plenty of selection and options with quality products and preparation. The facilities are well maintained, clean with updated furnishings and consistent improvements. This is a five star facility and program in every way. Our family member is very happy here. So glad we made this choice.

Mother’s Legacy of Myrtle Beach experience

My mother, [name removed], lived at the Legacy of Myrtle Beach for over 2 years. She always had positive things to say about the care, food and staff. I often dropped in on weekends and evenings, and the staff was always friendly and responsive. I highly recommend the Legacy for anyone looking for an Assisted Living or Memory Care community.

Great Facility

After getting a recommendation from a place from mom, we moved my sister into the legacy at Myrtle Beach. It is a wonderful place where they truly care for their residence and keep them completely engaged with activities. I am very happy. We moved her there.

Pleasant and caring staff

My sister-in-law is in the memory care unit at the legacy. The nurses and aids are very competent in handling dementia patients. They are kind and attentive. The patients have their own rooms with furniture from their home. It took a few weeks for my relative to get adjusted but now considers The Legacy her home.

Liked that there were men for my husband. Not all ladies. But the ladies were real nice to him. Yes, we would absolutely recommend The Legacy of North Myrtle Beach to other families.

Definitely best Memory Care in the area!

The Legacy is such a wonderful change from the institutional feeling of most Memory Care facilities. The atmosphere is bright and cheery and the staff are professional, friendly and create a relaxing environment for the residents. The hallways are lit with sconces in place of the institutional overhead fluorescent bar lights. The walls adjacent to the courtyard are lined with large, curtainless windows that can be opened to let in fresh air. There's a small garden in the courtyard as well and a club that takes care of it. They have Happy Hour every Friday afternoon in the lounge which includes a piano, large screen TV, comfy sitting areas and room for dancing! Other popular activities include cornhole, bingo, crafts, puzzle club, walking club, a workout facility and coloring. In addition, they frequently go on trips to restaurants, to get ice cream and to the beach. Most importantly, all residents are treated equally! I highly recommend The Legacy!!!

All the staff is nice and helpful. When we are there everyone tries to help with anything. They are professional. For Thanksgiving they had a large meal for families and residents to help us feel like everyone was family.

The legacy

We had a wonderful experience with our loved one From residing on the Assisted Living side and then over on Memory Care when he needed it. They worked well with our family in making sure his needs were met from the beginning till the end. It became a home for him as well as myself. The team was very involved with supporting his needs and keeping me in the loop with being an excellent support system when I was in need, there’s not one part I would change. From the floor staff, kitchen, and administration they really guided and provided us the support we needed along the way with his decline with his Dementia. They became extended family to us and I will forever be grateful for them. I thank God everyday he led us there and highly recommend them to anyone that needs assistance with a loved one and wants a family like environment, that is what u get from the Legacy.

Welcomed with Open Arms

When I walked into the community I was greeted by the receptionist/concierge, [name removed]. She had a lovely smile on her face, a warm friendly demeaner and was able to assist me. The community had a inviting feel to it walking in the door. Throughout my tour, I witnessed staff interacting with residents and greeted me as I passed by. The residents were engaged in activities and were happy. The community was clean and well maintained. When I am ready for an Assisted Living community, I would definitely choose Legacy of North Myrtle Beach.

Home away from home

The aides all love and respect my aunt marge and help her with her needs. The laundry attendant was happy to use the detergent we provided for her clothes. The facility has special events where family members are invited to celebrate with their relatives. They do not have an activity director that they had before. The activities that are being done now are not the same lively ones that were there since she left. Many of the residents have expressed disappointment.

Legacy is great!

Staff is very attentive and there is a constant choice of activities for residents to choose from. Meals are well planned and tasty, too! The entire facility has been recently renovated as well so the overall environment feels as if you are in a brand new facility.

Review for The Legacy of North Myrtle Beach

My experience with The Legacy Of North Myrtle Beach was terrific. Everyone including the administrators, nurses, med techs, and aids were so loving and caring for my loved one. They offered a variety of activities, and the staff encouraged my loved one to participate since she was reluctant. Unfortunately, my loved one took a turn for the worse after being there only a few months. With the assistance of her physician, the staff, and hospice, a plan was put in place to allow her to stay for the duration of her days. She resided there for only four months, but I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I would highly recommend The Legacy Of North Myrtle Beach to anyone in the area who is looking for an assisted living facility.

Did not meet expectations

The experience was average overall. What tainted [name removed[ stay was when his residency was terminated without notice. He was sent to the ER at the local hospital and they refused to allow him to return
