The Legacy Willow Bend sits in a quiet Plano neighborhood near cafes like Starbucks and Eatzi's Market & Bakery, right by medical places like Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Plano and Collin County ENT, offering a safe and active place for seniors with 114 units of all sizes, including studios, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3-bedroom apartments, letting residents choose what suits them best. You'll find independent living, assisted living, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, skilled nursing, short-term rehab, and even a full Life Care Plan to help with healthcare costs, so folks can plan ahead without worry. The staff's always around with trained, friendly team members available 24/7, ready to help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, medication, and meals, and there's a nurse on site along with bilingual staff for added peace of mind.
The place has a locked memory care unit with a license to look after up to 20 people with Alzheimer's and room overall for up to 72 assisted living residents, and they keep things organized with personal care plans, a secure environment to prevent wandering, and plenty of activities focused on memory, including arts and crafts, wellness programs, dementia awareness events, and group trips. All residents get access to things like laundry (self-serve), housekeeping, cable TV, kitchenettes, private bathrooms, air conditioning, emergency alert systems, and Wi-Fi. There's a fitness center, pool, library, art studio, movie theater, and outdoor spaces for socializing or just enjoying quiet time, plus amenities for pets, transportation, covered parking, and choices for private or semi-private rooms.
Meals come from a kosher-style kitchen, with menus that cover most dietary needs and options for fine dining or regular dining, and if someone's got a health issue, the staff manages medication and health routines carefully. Community-sponsored activities happen all week, with movie nights, faith-based events, group outings, and even help moving in, making social life easy and fun for those who want it. Short-term stays, respite care, and home health options through The Legacy at Home are there for folks who need them, and people can even get confidential help from a long-term care ombudsman if there's ever a problem.
The Legacy Willow Bend is the only Life Care community in Plano and Collin County with assisted living that really tries to let people keep their independence as long as they can, offering all pets consideration, staff help for those in wheelchairs, and community features that keep everyone feeling safe and dignified. The Legacy Senior Communities, including Willow Bend, Midtown Park, and home care, offer a strong focus on Jewish care traditions, so residents get respectful, knowledgeable support. Monthly prices start at $3,600 and the community asks for a minimum entrance fee of $350,000. All in all, The Legacy Willow Bend aims for a simple, comfortable, and safe life for older adults, with care that keeps up as their needs change.
