If I could give this place a zero, I would.<br><br>In March of 2026, my dad was placed into this facility. It was no secret that my dad had issues and had been taking medications for quitting smoking that was heavily documented and the documentation was given to this facility.<br><br>At some point during the stay, my dad was given a razor (my dad had a full length beard that he was very proud of). My dad dismembered the razor and used the blade to cut his wrists. He died from that injury.<br><br>I’ll now be spending Father’s Day weekend looking for a place to spread some of his ashes.

The team provided exceptional care for my mom in their Legacy memory care neighborhood. My dad deeply appreciated the kindness and support they showed, and he continues to visit the staff. It’s a community that genuinely feels like family.

Totally ignored my concerns about my husbands health. Lost him after only being there for one week. Wish he had had Yong Li as his nurse. Hate to give even one star
