This is a good community. They have good staff and programs, and sometimes they seem understaffed like a lot of places. The medication monitoring and care could be better. I think weekends they are really understaffed, because they let things go. The staff could be friendlier. The food is really good.

I would give Legend of McKinney beyond a 5 if I could. Our tour was great, staff were wonderful, and the facility was very clean. We got to try the food and it was superb. They were well equipped for dementia care but they were not able to take on the type of care that my mother needed.
We chose Legend of McKinney because it was in the close proximity to where I live and also we had heard good things about it just from people we know in the area who have had their loved ones there. After our tour we just really liked it and thought it would be a great fit. I feel like the staff truly care about your loved ones that are here, they are very compassionate. We would recommend them to others looking.

I would recommend this community. I would just advise to shop around due to rent raises and things that you may need to prepare for. In general I would just be ready for rent raises. My father loves it and it did not take him long to get settled in and everyone there is great.

Our experience has been fine, but we just moved our loved one in a few months ago and there have been multiple rate increases when we were told we would not see any in the first year. The only other issue we have had is they don't have a good solution to reach our loved one after hours in case there was an emergency. Overall we have been pleased with the experience other than those frustrations.

Our family had an in person tour and we enjoyed our experience so much that we wanted to move our loved ones into the Legend but at the time they did not have any two-bedrooms available and that was something we needed.
The Legend is an awesome assisted living with extremely friendly staff to help make the adjustments easier for all concerned. May go the extra mile to make sure your needs are met us a caring why. A very clean facility. Fellow seniors are friendly and are happy with the activities planned for them. A good place for your loved one.

My husband and I moved in this community 3 years ago the first week it was open! We love it, and have enjoyed watching it grow. After my husband's death, people here were very special to me.
I have been a physical therapist in the ome health field for 15+ years. The Legend of McKinney is one of the nicest facilities that I have been to. The level of care for the residents is unsurpassed. I would definitely recommend it to my loved ones if they needed assisted living.
Great job....thanks for taking care of my mom!
