Legend At 71st Street sits in Tulsa and offers a range of senior living services, and you'll find everything from independent living and assisted living to memory care, skilled nursing, respite care, and even home care through their continuum of care, and while the building shows off modern architecture and lots of natural light, much of the design quietly focuses on safety, privacy, and resident comfort, like the low-pile carpeting to reduce tripping and color choices that help people with vision loss. There are many different ways to live here, some folks choose private apartments with kitchenettes, roll-under sinks, spacious bathrooms, walk-in showers or even patios, and those who want to bring a pet can do so, too, because the community welcomes them in. The staff tailors care for each person, building an individual care plan after admission and adjusting services as needs change over time, and this means residents can get a little help with daily living tasks, medication, or more medical support in a skilled nursing setting if things change, and 24/7 caregivers and part-time nurses are on site. Legend At 71st Street runs a Gold Leaf Dining program in a bright dining room, where professional chefs serve restaurant-style meals using linen tablecloths and crystal glassware, and they make sure everyone gets choices including meals for special diets like diabetes. Housekeepers and laundry staff work all day and night so residents get regular cleaning, fresh sheets, and laundry done without worry.
People who have Alzheimer's or other types of dementia receive care in specialized memory care areas that feel homey, with cozy lounges, a fireplace, and relaxing touches like art rooms and a garden courtyard, and the staff follow dementia best practices, making sure communication and activities are suited to each resident's needs. The community has a full calendar of activities, which could be anything from bingo and movie nights to music programs or live performances, fitness classes in a special wellness room, art projects, field trips, poker games, or outings to parks, shops, or nearby nature areas, and there's a library, a business room for meetings, a beauty salon and barbershop, and even a game room with everything set up for puzzles or dominoes. The movie theater has real theater chairs and popcorn, there's a porch with red rockers, a self-serve bistro for coffee and snacks, and the activity rooms have crafts and games for every interest, making social life pretty lively for those who want to join.
For spiritual needs, there are regular religious services and a chapel space, and the community provides referral and support services to help residents and families find any extra care they might need at any stage of life. Hospice, home health, and home care services mean families can stay connected to care if health needs change. Residents have access to fast Wi-Fi, cable TV, transportation services to shops and appointments, activity outings, and plenty of parking. Every apartment has an emergency alert system, and safety features are everywhere, from walk-in tubs to secure environments for those who need memory care. Legend At 71st Street is licensed as AL1103 and is part of Legend Senior Living, a company that values servanthood and caring, and all of this comes together on a comfortable campus that welcomes people to live privately, enjoy friends, and get help when they need it, all while staying as independent as possible.
