    Kind staff, but safety concerns

    My experience was mixed. The staff I dealt with were often kind, caring, and went the extra mile - the grounds, outdoor space, food, and some long-tenured employees felt like family and my parent adjusted well. However, I also witnessed rude, unprofessional and at times abusive behavior, poor communication and management, cleanliness and safety issues (dirty shower, filthy fan, broken furniture), noisy hallways/kitchen, and a steep $500 move-in fee. I moved out after four days - could be great for some families, but it wasn't the right or reliably safe fit for us.

    About Legacy Assisted Living

    Legacy Assisted Living, also known as Legacy of Hemet, sits on South San Jacinto Street in Hemet, California, and looks like any quiet neighborhood place, where seniors find a homelike setting with caring staff and simple comforts, and you'll see folks coming and going, living as independently as they can. The community offers a mix of living choices like independent apartments, assisted living rooms, and memory care for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, plus extra skilled nursing when people need it, and the living spaces include private or semi-private rooms with baths, step-in showers, and comfortable furnishings, with some even having washers, dryers, and cable TV hookups, so people don't feel like they're missing out on the basics of home.

    There's always something going on for those who like to stay busy, with daily activities like bingo, crafts, pool, and dancing or sitting out in the secure courtyard, and you'll hear about the fitness center, game rooms, and special common areas, like the ice cream parlor or themed nooks, that make the place lively and friendly. For meals, the staff cooks and serves residents in a dining room and pays attention to special diets for those who need them. Staff do the housekeeping, laundry, maintenance, and help residents with anything from dressing and bathing to handling medications, and they've got personal care assistants and LVNs around all day and night, so help is never far for anyone who needs it, with a physician on call and a phlebotomist for blood draws, plus dental and rehab services when necessary.

    Legacy Assisted Living's team includes managers Michelle Kellogg and Lamberto H Valiente, and the place gets oversight from Aquilon Business Services Inc., all meeting California's requirements for a residential care home for the elderly, with the necessary licensing and up-to-date compliance filings to give families peace of mind. The family-owned atmosphere shows up in little touches, like devotional services, a safe and beautiful courtyard, and a cheerful approach from staff, along with care services ranging from basic aid to skilled nursing for more complex needs, post-surgery care, diabetic and incontinence assistance, wound or catheter care, colostomy support, and even hospice waivers, so folks can stay put as their needs change.

    Legacy of Hemet has 28 residential rooms, and they allow pets, within reason, and offer all-inclusive pricing, so residents and families know what to expect. The facility plans all kinds of activities, from arts and crafts to health and wellness programs and education sessions, so folks can stay active in mind and body. Transportation, daily housekeeping, personal linen, and laundry are all included, and there's a salon/barbershop on call for good measure, plus Wi-Fi, safety features like a sprinkler system, and handicap-friendly amenities. If someone needs extra help now and then, the facility provides respite care and short-term stays, and for those looking for some independence, there are studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartment options.

    Legacy Assisted Living takes care to tailor support for each resident, whether it's help with daily living or just offering a safe, pleasant, and lively place to call home for as long as someone needs.
