A close look at our Legacy Care Homes leaves people thinking “this is different”. It is different. Our homes are just that, homes. We are not a corporate facility where residents are another apartment or number in a massive chart.
Legacy Care Home housing services serve seniors over the age of 55 with general disability, daily care assistance needs, or memory care needs. Our thriving, accessible, comfortable, family-style senior homes provide a real home.

We offer a customized meal plan to suit each resident’s individual needs, featuring three wholesome, home-prepared meals daily plus snacks. From the moment a resident joins us, we work closely with each individual and their family to understand culinary preferences, dietary restrictions, and special needs. Our goal is to ensure that every dish is both comforting and nutritious—from favorite traditional recipes to special diets such as diabetic-friendly, gluten-free, high-fiber, low-sodium, vegetarian, vegan, or thickened liquids.
Housekeeping and laundry services include regular cleaning of bedrooms, bathrooms, and common areas, ensuring every space feels fresh and welcoming—like home, not a facility. Personal laundry and linens are also cared for with the same attention.

Recreational, health-related, and religious activities are offered, along with access to community and social events. Social Services resource and referral coordination is available as needed. Legacy regularly brings in singers, piano players, and magicians for entertainment, and organizes special experiences such as petting zoos, boat rides, and craft workshops. In addition, our staff provides daily activities thoughtfully tailored to each resident’s needs.
Each of our homes has between 6 and 8 residents. With double staffing during waking hours we have staff ratios of 3 or 4 to 1 which is one of the lowest in the industry. This allows for higher level of care and attention for our residents. Our staff also enjoys being able to give a higher level of care than larger facilities where there is pressure to see 12-18 residents per staff in some cases.
