Legacy Chillicothe sits as a senior living community with a focus on helping people heal and regain strength after leaving the hospital, especially for those needing skilled nursing and special therapy to walk or move safely again, and folks find all sorts of care there, including Adult Care Home, Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care, as well as short-term stays and longer-term nursing home care for people who are very frail and depend on nursing. The center gives different kinds of skilled care like post-acute nursing, rehabilitation, long-term care, respite care, and special therapy services that therapists tailor to each person's ability, and lots of residents use it as a place to recover between the hospital and going home. The teams at Legacy Chillicothe say they provide a comfortable space designed for recovery, with trained nurses and therapists watching over residents' needs, though it's worth noting the place has had its share of inspection findings-things like keeping rooms safe and homelike, food safety issues, and a couple of infection control violations, none causing proven harm so far but pointing to risks that the staff needs to watch, and the July 2024 report counted 12 deficiencies, making up part of a total of 31 on record, which families might want to consider. The staff works under Dmd Management Inc since December 2022, and the facility is affiliated with Legacy Health Services, offering things like Home Care, Home Health, Hospice, and referrals to other supports. Legacy Chillicothe has 99 beds with about 84 residents living there most days. The nurse turnover rate is 49.4%, a bit better than the state average, but the nurses spend about three hours with each resident daily, which is less time than the state average of 3.7 hours, so it does mean nurses have a lot on their plates. The center uses some unique terms and names for its services and perks, which help give the place a bit of its own character.

1058 Columbus St, Chillicothe, OH, 45601- Assisted living
- Memory care
- Skilled nursing
Filthy, neglected, understaffed nursing home
I visited and was horrified by filthy, run-down rooms and linens, dirty floors, residents left unbathed or not changed for hours, meals unattended, and staff who were rude, rough or uncaring - I saw safety risks (wandering patients, medication/fentanyl patch issues) and signs of neglect like bedsores. A few caregivers and therapy staff were excellent and the remodeled areas look nicer, but care is inconsistent and clearly understaffed. I would not recommend this facility for a loved one.
