Legacy Village sits on a large 253-acre campus in Xenia, Ohio, offering different options for seniors who want independent living, assisted living, memory care, or respite care, and while some may want a small one-bedroom apartment or a larger patio home with two or three bedrooms and a garage, both are options, and there are also new homes available if someone wants to build from scratch. The grounds have gardens, mature trees, walking paths, and open areas, so residents can take a walk or sit outside if they like. There's a 51-unit mid-rise building for independent living, with one- and two-bedroom apartments, some even with balconies, and the patio homes come ranch-style with open floor plans, sunrooms or great rooms, and garages.
Assisted living and memory care come with different kinds of support, like help with medications and health monitoring, and there's a secured memory-care wing for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia. If someone needs a break or short-term stay, respite care is available. There's staff and registered nurses on site at all hours, and caregivers, some of whom have worked there for over six years, are around to help with daily needs and emergencies. Everyone has access to an emergency call system in their room and the building has controlled entry.
Legacy Village also offers weekly housekeeping, flat linen service, personalized laundry, and snow removal, plus basics like cable TV and Wi-Fi, and there's a web-based communication system called CATIE. The common areas include a dining room with family-style meals, a bistro, fitness room, community center with banquet room and kitchen, and a lounge. Residents can join book clubs, play games, go to monthly theme parties, and if they want, reserve the community center for private events at no extra cost.
Besides regular activities, there's transportation services, meal service, and access to home healthcare, hospice, primary care, and even insurance help through National Church Residences, who owns the facility and has managed senior housing for over 58 years. Specialty features at the community include a bistro and fitness center, and there are events like luncheons, dinners with entertainment, and intergenerational gatherings. The assisted living building was newly renovated, including a secure wing for memory care.
Some apartments have all-inclusive rates, and for a few units, there isn't a second-person fee, but for certain services there can be extra costs. There's a virtual tour online if people want to see the campus before visiting, and staff can help answer any questions about retirement living options. The place tries to give choices for seniors at different stages, with licensed programs, different care types, and amenities, so everyone has something that fits what they need or want as they age.
