"My mom is at BeeHive Homes of Levelland. We chose it because it was a smaller facility and we felt like it would better suit my mother. My mom has a room with a bathroom adjoining it. It's kind of at the back of the facility, where it's not as noisy as up in the common area. We like all the staff members. They're super nice and good with my mother. They have games and bingo. They do puzzles. They get three home-cooked meals a day. My mom usually just sits there in the living room and watches movies on TV."

"Isle at Raider Ranch was beautiful. They have such a long waiting list to get into assisted living, that it is recommended to go into independent living first so that you are kind of moved to the top of the list when there is an opening in assisted living. For us, they had a lot of opportunities in terms of activities. They had a pool table, dances, live music, and happy hours. Vanessa assisted us with the tour, and she was awesome. All the people there were incredible. They were so nice, helpful, and eager to give you any information that you need. In all honesty, all the residents were walking around with a smile on their faces and they seemed very happy. They also do have a lifestyle option that you can sign up for where you get three meals a day, you can have people come in upon your request to empty the dishwasher, make your bed every day, or fold laundry. If you don't feel like going to the dining room that day, they will bring your food to you. It's kind of in between assisted living and independent living. "

"My mother's health declined and was hospitalized just a few hours before she was scheduled to move in. She passed away but I think she would have really liked The Legacy. Amy gave a very informative and thorough presentation of The Legacy. I had been looking at another facility but they wanted to perform a Zoom interview with my mother and me. She was at a rehab facility and the nurse from the other facility did not want to visit since there were 5 cases of covid. Renee was willing to visit the rehab facility that afternoon--fully aware of the covid hall at the rehab facility. While there she assisted my mother in the restroom, helped her eat, viewed her limitations and abilities, and talked face-to-face with us so she was fully aware of the care mom would require. Renee was helpful during my decisions and answered many phone calls and multiple visits. While setting the apartment up and moving everything in, numerous staff stopped in the room to meet us, offered to help however they could, and were anxious to have mom as a resident. While mom was in the hospital and after mom passed away, Renee called and texted me several times to check on mom and to check on me. During the move out process, Melanie was very attentive to our situation and was available for communication and assistance. Since mom would not have been able to return to her house, I think The Legacy would have been the next best thing and the best place for her to receive the attention to her state of health and state of mind. I was very lucky to have them for support during mom's last days--it eased a lot of my anxiety."

"My mom was a resident at Wilshire. It was a beautiful place. The staff members were wonderful. They catered to the residents. The administrator and activities director were wonderful. Mother always complained about the food, it was institutional like any other, but it's good quality food. We highly recommend Wilshire to anybody because they were great."
