The Legacy at Santa Fe

Moving my mother to Legacy Santa Fe memory care department has been the best decision we could have possibly made. The difference in care, respect, and attention to detail is night and day compared to her previous facility. We moved her from MorningStar, where her experience was incredibly disappointing. My mom has multiple food allergies, and the chef at MorningStar simply wouldn’t comply with her dietary needs or bother cooking meals that she actually liked or could safely eat. It was a constant battle and a massive source of stress for our family. At Legacy, it is a completely different story. The culinary team here is absolutely phenomenal. The chef goes above and beyond every single day, making sure to personally ask my mother what she wants to eat and preparing it exactly to her liking and dietary needs—always with a warm smile on his face. It is clear that he truly cares about the residents' happiness and well-being. The entire staff at Legacy treats my mother with the dignity and individualized care she deserves. If you are looking for a memory care community that actually delivers on its promises and treats your loved ones like family, look no further than Legacy.

Our family member is in the memory care part of the Legacy community, it’s called Connections. She is well cared for and enjoys the community of other residents so much. We are so pleased to see her smiling while engaged in the activities whenever we arrive for a visit. She is content and we feel so grateful for the excellent care provided and the efforts made to keep her healthy and active.

Once we knew we needed help with caring for our Mom, my sisters and I visited many facilities before we made our decision. We were immediately drawn to the Legacy. The minute we walked in, I got a good feeling. It is modern, clean, and offers many activities to keep the residents engaged in life. All the staff we have interacted with so far have been compassionate and professional. Mom is a new resident, but we know we have made the right decision for her because she is safe, well cared for, and everyone that helps her has gone above and beyond to make her feel at home here. I feel like the people my Mom sees everyday truly care about her, and that helps give me peace that we made the right decision. Thank you Legacy Staff for supporting Mom and our whole family with patience and kindness as she transitions into assisted living.

My sweet mother in law has been a resident for just over 3 years now. Imagine moving from your home state of New Jersey, and moving clear across the country, from the ocean to the desert .... all of this at age 96! She transitioned beautifully, and we're so happy to have her living less than ten minutes away from us. She loves the Legacy, she calls it "the resort"! 🩷 Words alone cannot describe how wonderful this facility is ..... but I'll give it my best shot. Immediately you feel like you're at home when you walk in. It's so welcoming, bright and clean. And then there's the staff, well, what can I say, they are just incredible, every single one of them! They are so caring and you can see how much they enjoy what they do. I'm brought to tears when I see the care and love they give our mom. And they treat my husband and myself like family. All the staff always has a big smile for you when they see you! It's such a nice feeling knowing your loved one is being so well taken care of by this lovely team of professionals! We're so grateful for them! 🙏❤️ When mom was in the hospital a few years ago, I was visiting her in the hospital every day and she was there for 3 weeks. And you know, I really missed all the other residents and the staff for those three weeks when I wasn't visiting the facility. Mom is so busy, she's never in her room. They have so many great activities going on every day! Exercising, walks, outings for shopping and lunch, trips by bus to Balloon Fiesta, bingo, blackjack, cards, crafts, movies (with freshly popped popcorn!), cooking & baking, reading sessions, discussion forums, and so much more. Oh and I'm now a regular at Bingo and they welcome me with open arms every week! Mom is turning 100 in just a few weeks and the staff is so excited for her, it's truly heartwarming. ❤️ Thank you Legacy, we appreciate everything you do, more than you know! 🥰🥰
