I had to find a place for my mom who was in hospice. I looked at a few places and was not impressed. I gave it one more try that day and saw the beautiful home in Scottsdale of Legato living. I was meet by Semka the manager who gave me the tour.They had a wonderful private room for my mom that was perfect. The outside patio was nice to get some fresh air, and the house was so nicely decorated for Christmas. The staff took such good care of my mom making sure she was alright. I have a little Chihuahua Terrier mix who mom loved, and they allowed me to take him to see her. She would just light up and pet him every time we visited.Ryan the owner is a great man. He made sure all the arrangements were in place and gives a fair price that matches or was less than others and others offer an inferior home.My mom did pass as she was quite ill. Ryan and Semka were there for me and added comfort on a very sad day in my life.If you are looking for a place for your loved one, do try them. You will not be sorry. Thank you again Legato Living. You are the best!

Everyone is hands on and cares for the patients. Had my grandmother there for a few months and I trusted everyone with her care. They are the nicest people to work with and they are hard workers. I recommend place.

My mom just moved into Legato Living in Old Town three days ago. Her move-in experience has been very positive! The owner, manager, and all the caregivers have been so kind and caring! My mom is happy, so I am happy!

I was very blessed to find this place I feel it is the best place for him to be . It is in a home not an institution and it is bright and cheery with lots of windows. Bill feels very comfortable here and he gets excellent care. The staff are compassionate and caring. He gets homecooked meals and the place is very clean. Also the staff always let's me know if they notice a change in Bills health status. I can come visit him any time I want

In October of last year, we made the difficult decision to move our 88 year old father out of his home of 50 years. As a family we looked many places. Many of the locations could not take on the care he needed. Through Care Matrix we learned of Legato Heartland Hills. Even though our dad did not need memory care, 5 Minutes into the tour we knew this was the place for him. The home environment, friendly & qualified staff, impeccably clean living areas and a low number of residents made it perfect. Dad was safe, well cared for and loved. The care givers made ever accommodation for our dad and they worked with his hospice company to make sure he was comfortable, happy and safe. We were welcome to visit anytime and we even hosted Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner with our family at Legato. Unfortunately our dad passed away in January. Alicia, Greg and Alissa even came to our dad's wake. They will always have a place in our hearts for the fabulous care they gave one of the most important people in our lives.

It is an absolute pleasure working with Alisha and her team at Legato Living Heartland Hills. They have the heart and compassion needed to care for older adults with memory deficits at end of life. The home is peaceful, safe, and would be the first place I would place my own mother if she needed care.

My mother has been a resident at Legato for over a year now and we have been nothing but amazed and grateful for how much dedication the staff has for the residents. From the beginning my mother came in anxious and fearful, and now she is often found snoozing in the afternoon sunshine if they don’t have arts & crafts or a therapy animal visiting perhaps! Every staff member has made a point to meet my family, welcome us as one of them and offer support and love as the next stage of life has come to us. We are grateful and proud to say Legato is my mother’s final home and she will be taken care of as if she were a grandmother, sister, auntie, or mother of each of the wonderful people we have come in contact with here. We often find nutritious meals being prepared when we arrive or maybe just a little dance party for a birthday celebration happening. Each day is a blessing at this home and we will continue to celebrate each day we have together. I am forever grateful to Andy and his loving staff Sherri and Tiffani especially as they are often going above and beyond to ensure we are informed and invited to all house events. Thank you so much for helping ease the burden of these final days for us. It brings tears to my eyes she has gotten over her fears and is still so strong these days.

Our experience with Legato Living was remarkable. We could not have asked for a better care team to work with my sister in law. They provided her with love, compassion, and dignity.The facility itself is clean and orderly with a true feeling of being in a comfortable home setting. The management is very involved and easily accessible. I would highly recommend Legato Living at Legacy.

I interviewed for their residential assisted living. They were super nice and they made me feel heard for sure. They’re very understanding and personable. We need more of these assisted livings. I would recommend.

I have worked at this establishment for almost 2 years. To say that the owners, Andy and Srijana, go above and beyond for their staff, the residents and the family and friends of both is an understatement. Both homes under their care have warmth, love and compassion at the core of their values. The staff works diligently to care for the needs of each and every resident and makes it personal to each individual. I have enjoyed working here and look forward to the continued support I have from the owners and other staff. I feel fortunate to be employed here and cherish the moments with the residents and their families.

My mom is currently a resident at the house. She is doing really well here. She enjoys all the attention she receives from all the friendly staff. I feel very comfortable that she is getting good care in a smaller environment. Very pleased with choosing legato living to care for my mom.

My wife moved to Legato Living at Legacy less than a month ago. This is the second place my wife has been, and I have never witnessed such examples of so above and so beyond care by the staff that this place has. When I walk in from outside, I am always greeted with a smile and a friendly update on my wife’s situation or condition. This makes me feel very comfortable that she is taking care of. This home creates a family atmosphere with a relaxing environment producing humoring remarks at times which help to ease the tension in our lives. The meals are great and worth staying for. They always give me plenty to eat. Overall, I am delighted that my wife is here with Andy and the staff and I feel in a better place in my life because of it.

Andy and his staff go above and beyond when it comes to attitude and taking care of loved ones. They treated my father with great care and respect during his stay and communicated with our family frequently. I can't say enough about how great they are.

Both of our parents lived in a Legato Living home, seven years apart. They both suffered from dementia and our mother also had Parkinson's Disease. The owners and staff really cared for our parents ... treating them with dignity and respect and providing excellent medical care. My siblings and I highly recommend Legato Living.

I have been extremely happy with Legato at 5 Fountains. I believe Joe gets more attention than he got at his last placement. He seems happier and the staff is amazing.

My mom has lived at Legato Living at Five Fountains since April.We looked at numerous memory care places in Omaha and feel like this is the perfect place for her. She is now somewhere that people genuinely care about her and are watching out for her.The small staff to resident ratio is a huge plus. Definitely look here if your loved one needs care.Taylor and all of her staff are great to work with!

My mother in law moved to Legato in June 2023 shortly after it opened. By that point, she had been at 4 other Memory Care or Assisted Living facilities in the Omaha area due to her dementia and physical decline from several falls. She transitioned to hospice care in May. When she moved in, there were 2 full time care givers at all times for the 4 women. After more residents moved in, it still had a higher staff to resident ratio than anywhere else. The personal care she received and family style home cooked meals were really appreciated.The staff, including owners Cole and Taylor, really got to know and care for her as she declined. The family was informed that the end was coming. All of the Legato team provided the support, sensitivity and understanding that was needed in those final 2 weeks.

I feel so very fortunate to have found Legato Living at Five Fountains for my husband. The care facility where he was before coming to Legato was not a good place for him. He suffered several falls resulting in serious injury and hospitalization. Since coming to Legato his overall health and spirit have improved a great deal. I feel he is safe at Legato. The feeling at Legato is warm, calm and nurturing. The care staff are all friendly and professional. Activities are designed to keep residents active both mentally and physically. You quickly feel like part of a big, happy, supportive family. Legato has been a godsend to us.
