Legacy Village of Cleveland sits west of the Blue Ridge Mountains with a good view of the Appalachian Valley, and when you look around you'll see the whole place has well-kept lawns and a landscaped campus that feels open, with green spaces just next to the old Rolling Hills golf course, so residents often have the chance to go out and enjoy nature if that's something they like. Folks who live here can pick from different apartment layouts, and each apartment has a private bathroom, a kitchenette, air conditioning, and a telephone, plus the rooms come furnished if you need them to be, with cable TV and fast Wi-Fi available all through the place so everyone can stay connected with their family or friends.
The community provides both assisted living and memory care for people who need help with daily tasks or have Alzheimer's and other memory impairments, and the memory care section is a secured area where staff keep a close eye on things and use special programs meant for people dealing with dementia, including a dementia waiver for extra support. Caregivers are there day and night, helping with medication, showers, dressing, getting in and out of bed or chairs, and all the usual activities that can get tougher as you age, and there's also non-ambulatory care, so even folks who can't get around on their own don't need to worry about being left out. Supplies like housekeeping and laundry services come each week, staff can help with moving in, and family support makes things a little easier when making big decisions.
Dining happens in a restaurant-style room where folks get home-cooked meals all day long, and the staff know how to handle allergies or diabetes diets, so if food is a concern, the kitchen folks are used to making things work for everyone. Legacy Village has quite a few areas for relaxing or mixing with others, so if you enjoy movies there's a theater, and if music or games are more your speed, those programs and rooms for playing games or arts and crafts can keep you busy. People use the library, stroll the walking paths and gardens, or join fitness classes and spa sessions-there's a little something in the lively monthly schedule for almost every interest, including live entertainment, resident-run activities, and exercise classes, plus transportation is available for appointments and trips.
Many look for a warm, safe place, and here staff are available all hours, and residents can use the emergency call system any time they need help. The community itself is run as a nonprofit, and the staff really do focus on dignity and respect, taking care of each person's needs as they arise, often bringing in volunteers and local church groups who come by to visit or run programs. While the setting is home-like and not fancy, the atmosphere is secure and friendly, allowing folks to be themselves and enjoy each other's company, and families get support along the way. Many choose Legacy Village of Cleveland for the wide array of services, special memory care, and the simple, genuine care received every day, though it's always wise to visit in person to get a true feel for the atmosphere.
