We have a great experience having Mom here at the Legacy. If there was ever a problem, it was easy to work out. We know she is not the easiest person to work with but you all) make it happen. Thank you for doing such a great job with Nellie.

We made the decision to move my father to Edencrest at the Legacy in Norwalk after touring a year prior and checking reviews and recommendations from others. We felt confident it would meet my Father’s needs after an unexpected surgery and rehabilitation made it unwise to return to his home alone. What we did not know is how warm and caring the staff and residents would be to my dad and all of us. He actually tells us frequently how nice it is there. We have had a couple of glitches that were immediately addressed to our satisfaction. We are very pleased with the care and concern he receives. We like the fact that it is not one of the mega communities we have seen advertised. The activities and meals keep him sufficiently social and he continues to thrive. Thank you, Edencrest!!
