Legacy Care Home

Legacy Care Home sits on both Eden Prairie Road and Crown Drive in Minnetonka, Minnesota, and it's a small, family-run place with only eight licensed beds, so folks get more attention and there isn't as much hustle and bustle as you'll find in bigger buildings, and residents here are mostly seniors 55 and older who want some help with daily things like bathing, dressing, medication, and moving about but still want privacy with furnished rooms and private baths-sometimes semi-private-as well as wall-to-wall carpeting or wood floors and window blinds, and there are telephones in the rooms too, plus wheelchair accessible showers for easier use. Staff offer help around-the-clock, using a 3 or 4 residents to one staff member ratio, and there's always a registered nurse-Catalina-making sure care plans are set up right and adjusted as needs change; Catalina and the owners stay involved in care personally, and every caregiver goes through extra hands-on nurse training, background checks, and is picked for kindness and skill. Legacy Care Home does both long-term and respite care, takes care of people with memory loss and dementia, and goes beyond regular assisted living with options like hospice care, high acuity and non-ambulatory care, incontinence and diabetes support, and medication management. The building is set up for easy access-just one story, no stairs-and has features like a kitchen, shared dining and living rooms, porch, and decks, so it aims to feel like a real home, not an institution, and there's a garden, walking paths, art rooms, and gathering spots for activities. Meals are made onsite, with special diets when needed, and there's laundry and housekeeping every week, plus both paid and free rides for doctor's visits or activities, and even a barber and salon. Activities get planned both inside and outside, including movie nights, devotional gatherings, crafts, and family visits; families can come in for tours or consults, and Legacy keeps a waiting list if needed. Staff work closely with healthcare providers and track changes to health, while owners make it clear no one gets asked to leave if money runs out-payments are monthly with no special plans but CADI, BI, and some Elderly Waivers are accepted. Legacy Care Home keeps strict health rules, especially for things like COVID-19, and families can ask about those policies, the team is always ready to help people figure things out, and it's been run by families who understand what it's like to care for loved ones, aiming for steady, honest, and personal care as long as someone needs it.
