What this means for your family
Legacy House is an excellent choice for families seeking a culturally supportive environment where residents feel at home and well-connected to staff. However, given the reports of theft, we strongly advise families to avoid keeping high-value electronics or personal items in resident rooms and to discuss security protocols with management during your tour.

While families praise the caring nature of the caregivers and the peace of mind provided by the facility, there are serious historical reports of personal property theft that families should be aware of.”

Key Review Excerpts
“The multi-lingual staff at Legacy House have taken great care of our mother for the past 10+ years. They encourage residents to stay active and provide individualized care programs.”
“My Mom entered Legacy House in 2019, within few months my Mom's samsung note 8 cell phone got stolen, that was my Mom's life line! Then we gave her an Ipad, it also got stolen then I made a commotion at the staff desk before we took my Mom out for dinner within few hours someone returned to where my Mom hided her ipad in her room.”
“Like small Asian community, residents are offered food that suit their taste buds. Staff is caring, visit needs to make appointment.”
