My mother moved into The Legacy about 8 months ago. She is 87 years old and has never lived alone her entire adult life so needless to say we were extremely worried about this. My mother went straight from high school to getting married and after my dad she moved in with her twin sister for the next 30 years. When it became obvious that this was not going to be able to continue because of health issues with both we decided to move her to the Legacy. Since being there she has THRIVED! She loves participating in the many social activities, gospel hour, socializing in the dining hall, etc. She loves that there is so many activities that she can enjoy if she so chooses. The office staff is phenomenal and it gives me piece of mind knowing that they all have my mother's best interests at heart. My mother has "adopted" these ladies as one of her own. I truly believe that my mother feels at home at The Legacy and I am grateful to everyone there for this. The maintenance man is wonderful too. Anytime my mother calls for something that may have broken Mr. Rudy rushes right up to help her out!! I have made a lifelong friend in Dee and one reason is because I see how she interacts with the residents! Every employee treats these residents with such respect and is always so very helpful if they need anything! The Legacy is always clean and kept so attractive from the inside of the residence to the grounds. If you are looking for a place for you or your parents then I can assure you that you would love the legacy as my family does!!

Scheduled a visit to the legacy so that my dad could visit and help him make a decision about moving from his home of 65 years. Dee was great and gave us a wonderful tour and set it up so that we could eat lunch. The food was fabulous and all the residents that we talked to seem to really enjoy everything about the Legacy. The staff seems so friendly. We definitely will be back when he decides he is ready.

The Legacy of Anderson is a beautiful community with loving and dedicated staff, who go above and beyond for their residents . From the moment you walk in, you are greeted with warmth and friendliness, from the staff and residents both. And you can often find a variety of activities taking place, to engage the seniors that reside there.

Such a pleasant staff! The community is very welcoming as soon as you walk through the door. The staff was very informative and eager to answer any questions! Ask for Dee if you would like a tour! She is awesome!

Questions & Answers

When I visit assisted living communities with my daughter, I find it all a little intimidating. Moving from a small house to a big community is frightening. I just don’t know if I can learn my way around a new place.

My father needs more help than we can provide for him to be safe at home. I think he realizes it but is reluctant to leave the friends he’s made in his neighborhood. Dad has lived there for about 25 years. What can we do to reassure him he can stay connec

Good question! Embarking on a new chapter in life doesn’t mean old friends have to be left behind. Assisted living communities offer a wide range of programs and events residents can invite guests to participate in. And they also offer transportation services so your dad can attend events in and around town with his old buddies. Fortunately, there are other ways your father can stay in touch. Social media channels like Facebook or a video chat service such as Skype are two easy avenues for staying connected.

My mom agreed that it was time for her to move to an assisted living community this winter. She knows she just isn’t safe living alone any longer. We found a community Mom seemed to love. Now we can’t seem to get her motivated to actually make the move. I

This sometimes happen when it actually comes time to make the move. Your mom is probably anxious and a little uncertain. A late life transition like this isn’t easy to make. What might help is to get her involved in some of the events and activities at the new community now, instead of waiting until she actually moves in. Talk with the staff to see about helping her find a buddy with similar interests and hobbies that she can bond with during her visits. Becoming more familiar with the community and with a few fellow residents can help make the move feel a little less intimidating.

My children live out of town and have busy lives. I know I need to move to a senior living community but I don’t want to burden my children with downsizing my house. What can I do? It’s overwhelming to think about doing it all on my own.

We hear this concern from seniors often. Sorting through and packing up a lifetime of memories and belongings can be overwhelming. One resource we like to share with families is a group of professionals called Senior Move Managers. They are experts at handling all of the details of a later life move. You can find one near your home by visiting the National Association of Senior Move Managers or Certified Relocation & Transition Specialist.
