Legend Senior Living

It's been a while. I like the apartments I visited. I would like to tour again when it is convenient for you.

There could be improvements with the overall meal and dining experience as well as the activities. For example on Thursday's the only activities doing on all day are religious ones, which is fine but we wish they would incorporate a bunch of different activities throughout the day for all the residents and not have designated days for just one activity or event. We also thought there would be someone there to mentor or help encourage our loved one to get out and about and that's not quite the case, so we wish there was somebody at the community to do that.

We chose Sunrise of Lenexa because the facility was very nice and the cost was much lower in comparison. One of the problems is they do not provide any type of transport so it can be hard to get to and from appointments. They do transport for activities, but not for medical appointments. I think it would be very helpful if they could offer that. They also do not offer in house OT or PT so you do have to organize that yourself if needed. They have a really good staff retention, it is a low turnover rate and the staff there are great and really seem to like their job. I would recommend to others looking.

Give it a try but be present and involved as your loved one needs an advocate.

This is a nice place for you or your loved one to live. My only thing is that some of the people that live there probably should not be. I feel like some of the people in memory care need more assistance but overall it has been pretty good. My loved one goes to town and takes trips and stores and more for activities and things for the residents to do.

We chose Legend at Jefferson's Garden because of the responsiveness from the staff with the inquiries in the beginning stages. They have multiple food options on their menu and alternates if you do not want what is being served. I would tell others just to make sure to communicate to them in advance if you want to alter your meal preference. Overall it has been a good experience and we would recommend to others.

This community is run well by the administration. They have activities like bingo, physical therapy, outings and more for the residents to do to stay busy and have a good time in the community. They go to theaters and more around the community. The staff overall are pretty good and I have no complaints.

We had a virtual tour with Sunrise of Upper St. Clair since it was in the middle of the pandemic. It was a nice facility, but it was hard to get a good feel for it since the tour was not in person.

Great place, friendly staff, clean

My parents enjoy it here. They love the facility. They were really enjoying the exercise classes, but are disappointed that the community did not renew their contract with the instructor, due to the facility's finances. But they love the activities director. We thought it was a great value when they first moved in under a special, but it sounds like they're doubling the fees under new ownership, which is concerning and not appropriate for the services they're providing.

This community is expensive but a lot of the communities are. Depending on the needs of the resident you need to have some understanding with the staff and administration before admission. They have several activities at this community for the residents to do. My loved one was not able to participate in most of the activities but from looking at the schedule there was always something to do.

I would advise others to do your research. make sure that these communities actually offer what they claim to have. ensure they have the right certifications amongst their staff. the activities were at a 3/5, they weren't really doing anything aside from watching tv and sleeping. it's recently changed and is now at a 5/5; they're a lot more engaging and interactive.

A friendly atmosphere with a homey feel to it, but sometimes the meals are a hit or miss. The food is as expected in a community and sometimes it is cold.

Our family had an in person tour and all the residents and staff we met with were wonderful. The gentlemen who took us on the tour was all great, but the community was just to far away which is why we decided against it.

I found Renaissance North Tampa to be comparable to the other places we toured. They seemed average. We picked a different community because we preferred the location of the room within the facility.

After all of our tours, it was a toss up between Anthology and the place we chose - although my understanding is that the two are related somehow. Basically if my loved one's situation were to change and she needed more care later on, she might advance into Anthology.

we really like the overall openness of the community, its very bright and welcoming not gloomy at all. The staff are great and keep up with communication any time something happens to our loved one. The place is pretty much immaculate.

The day staff here are incredible, we absolutely love them. They all are so lovely, attentive and helpful when we come to visit. Anytime we have issues we bring them up with the head nurse and she is amazing. However the night staff have some issues, we think they might be contracted out but they do not answer the residents buzzer in a timely manner and when they do answer they have an attitude.

They keep the pools closed all summer and winter, so do not expect to wear a bathing suit or short sleeved shirt.
