Review for The Legacy of Anderson
I would say that I love living here, and wish I could afford a 2 bedroom for just my closet. No space. I love having people around. Also the staff is great and helpful with everything. I would recommend to my friends. Because of how I feel. Great place when you really don't have much family.

Review for The Legacy of Anderson
My mother transitioned to independent living in August. My goal as my mother's caregiver was to find a safe environment where she would be well cared for and supported as she entered this new stage of life. I have been impressed with the administration and staff. My mother has developed friendships with others and is more independent. I am appreciative and thankful.

We selected based on price and how comfortable mother felt there period overall. I think it was a good choice. However, we are not staying, and mom will be ending her contract and moving back with me. No fault if Legacy. Mother medically isn't able to stay by herself.

I am a caretaker for family member
I have been in several times and the facility has always been neat and clean. Staff is very friendly, and even most of the residents we encountered were pleasant.- I have not personally dined there but my understanding is the food is good and menu is varied and flexible. They have many fun things to do there. It was our best value available for our budget compared to other options we considered.

Not as good as it used to be.
We visited my mother in law for Mother’s Day. Her apartment was dirty and she said that they have had a problem keeping staff for the cleaning services. We also took her to buy meals because much of the time the menus are not things she would eat. For instance Dandelion soup, asparagus, baked fish. I understand that you can’t please everyone but to pay for meals and then buy food for at least three meals a week.

Melissa, I am the Executive Director and want to thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. It is our goal to always exceed the expectations of our residents and their families and have spoken with the head of our housekeeping team about your concerns about the cleanliness of your mother-in-law's apartment. I encourage your mother-in-law to speak to a member of the Food Committee as we are always looking for feedback from residents on our menus and we try to accommodate as many preferences as possible while always providing multiple meal options to residents -- and also invite you to reach out to me directly at any point if I can be of assistance.

They have had changes with the food, and they have a new chef. The value for the money is good, and it serves our needs. We picked this community, because of the location, and price point. They go above, and beyond to help my loved one. My loved has a nice view. I would recommend to other families.

Best in the area for the money.
This is a great place, but I find that it works best when the client WANTS to move in and Decides to make this "Home". When it is forced, it is always more difficult and easy to find faults. The employees love and care for their residents is beyond any comparison in the area. The care offered here goes far above and beyond the requirements for an "Independent Living Facility".

Look no further.
After visiting several independent living communities, I find it hard to find any serious problems with the Legacy. What I love most is the ease of paperwork and moving in. Especially, I like the large windows and the amount of light that is always present. No dark, narrow hallways here. Good food and fellowship, close to town, doctors, shopping .Just a great place. Kudos to "A Place for Mom" for helping me find this place.

Mom fell and was not found until over 24 hrs later.
My Mom was here for about 3 years. We were told if she did not show up for lunch, they would check on her. She fell one morning in the bathroom after taking a shower and did not show up for lunch, dinner, anld nobody checked on her. The maid found her on the bathroom floor after noon the next day. She had laid on the floor for over 24 hrs. She did not go back there after her hospital stay. We were told a lie. Some of the ladies went to the office and told them she did not show up for lunch or dinner. No excuses!

parents are very safe here.
We love it at Legacy of Anderson Senior Living Community. I would give them more than 5 stars for friendliness if I could. The only thing is sometimes the meals are almost too fancy. I would prefer more down home cooking. The price is really reasonable for the food though. We appreciate that we can eat here with my parents and it's not too expensive. I feel like my parents are very safe here. We are quite pleased with this facility.

Nice place, overall
Our experience with Legacy of Anderson has been a good one so far, I'd give them high marks across the board. The people here are friendly, and the facility is well kept and clean. There is always room for improvement though! As an example, I think they could stand to clean the windows a little more frequently.

A wonderful community
They've been wonderful, there hasn't been a single thing I can think to complain about but suppose their portions for meals could be a bit bigger for guests! Finding this place has really been a blessing. Everyone we've spoken with, from the aides to the director, have been very friendly! I like that it is all one building, as a few of the communities we looked at had outside portions that would have made getting around difficult for my loved one.Thank you Mandy and staff for making the decision so much easier.

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score.
