About Edencrest at The Legacy

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Edencrest at The Legacy provides three levels of residential care. Independent living residents receive support with home maintenance and have access to staff around the clock if their needs change. Assisted living residents can add individualized help with personal activities while still maintaining as much self-direction as possible. For individuals with cognitive impairment, the community offers a dedicated memory care program with specialized staffing, routines, and spaces designed to reduce confusion and promote safety.

Beyond daily living assistance, the property supplies a wide range of on-site health services. Nurses coordinate medications, monitor chronic conditions, and act as the link to outside physicians, who visit regularly. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists work on campus, and podiatry, optometry, dental, and massage services are scheduled on site to limit off-campus travel. The secured memory care neighborhood reduces wandering risks, and the team is trained in techniques tailored to dementia support. Respite stays, diabetes management, incontinence care, ambulatory assistance, and hospice coordination are available, giving families flexibility and continuity of care.

Apartments vary in size and layout, with options that may include kitchenettes for light meal preparation, individual climate control, cable or satellite TV hookups, and Wi-Fi access. Some suites feature wheelchair-accessible showers, while others offer views of landscaped outdoor areas or proximity to the central fireplace and community piano. Parking is available for residents with vehicles, and all buildings are handicap accessible, though not every accommodation has every listed feature.

Dining follows an all-day service model, allowing residents to choose meal times that fit their routines. Menus accommodate vegetarian, gluten-free, low-sodium, and no-sugar preferences, and the culinary staff prepares international dishes alongside familiar favorites. Guest meals can be arranged so family and friends can share the dining experience. Nutritional oversight works in tandem with medical teams to address specialized diets.

Residents have access to an activity center, library and computer lounge, swimming pool, jacuzzi, outdoor walking paths, and scheduled social outings. Regular programming includes clubs, live music, happy hour, chair yoga, birthday celebrations, and dances, promoting social engagement and physical activity.

We chose Edencrest because my father wanted a smaller facility to be in. We had one of the smallest apartment sizes that they offer, but they have various sizes to choose from. With covid everything was limited but overall I would recommend to others looking
