Our Team

A premier residence needs a premier team. In developing Legacy, we started with a superb central location, then engaged architects and consultants with experience in senior housing. Most importantly, we talked with local seniors themselves, listening to their preferences and advice. Then we turned to The Lumina Group to help us plan Legacy Senior Living. Every staff member on the Legacy team is trained to deliver caring, professional service that will surpass your expectations.

Rose is a Licensed Practical Nurse with over 12 years of experience as a Health and Wellness Manager in the retirement industry. Rose’s goal is to support and empower residents to remain independent, enhance their optimal wellness, and enjoy happy and fulfilled lives!

She is happy and proud to be working at Legacy Senior Living.  This is in part due to Legacy’s key differentiation from its competitors  in that we provide Wellness Services in-house, allowing our residents to stay in their homes within the community and receive the support they need to remain independent.

To achieve her goal, Rose participates and works with residents and the rest of the Legacy team to support and empower Legacy residents in maintaining their independence through providing Wellness Services such as: physical exercise classes, creative programs that enhance social, mental, and emotional wellness, assisted living services, education sessions, seminars, and healthy nutrition; thus providing choices to support and educate residents in embracing healthy lifestyles.

Rose believes our seniors can remain healthy and independent and enjoy life to the fullest if they remain physically and mentally active and stay socially engaged. She looks forward to continuing working with Legacy residents and the Legacy team to fulfill her dream of supporting our residents to achieve their goal of happy and healthy aging.

Preparing meals for our senior residents requires passion and creativity in how to enhance the natural flavors of food without relying on salt.
