Legacy House of Taylorsville

Legacy House of Taylorsville is an assisted-living and memory-care campus at 6302 South Gold Medal Drive in Taylorsville, Utah, set on the west side of the Salt Lake Valley. The property belongs to Legacy Retirement Communities, a Western States Lodging and Management brand with assisted-living and memory-care addresses across the Salt Lake metro. The main building holds the assisted-living apartments, and a separately staffed secured wing called The Cottage handles dementia care as its own neighborhood, with caregivers professionally trained for dementia communication and behavior support.

Staff on both sides cover personal-care help such as dressing, grooming, transfers, and continence management, with medication oversight and a call button in every apartment. Nursing is on site twelve to sixteen hours a day, and the emergency-call system runs around the clock. The Cottage carries its own caregiver roster and stays with the secured wing through the day, running a reminiscence program and supervised meals tuned to mid-stage and later-stage dementia.

Mild-cognitive-impairment support sits inside assisted living, so residents who develop early dementia symptoms can stay in their apartment as long as that scope safely covers daily routines. Hospice coordination through outside agencies is in place when needs progress further. The dining room and the courtyard anchor the day. A chef runs the kitchen with rotating menus and handles requests directly, including allergen-aware and diabetic preparations.

Weekly highlights include movie nights, music sets, book clubs, quilting circles, karaoke, and trivia, with chair-yoga and a wellness room covering the active side. The assisted-living building offers studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments with private bathrooms, individual climate control, and weekly housekeeping; The Cottage carries memory-care studios sized for the secured neighborhood.

Common spaces are arranged for casual visiting rather than corridor-style flow. The combination that distinguishes Legacy House is having an assisted-living building and a dedicated secured memory-care neighborhood operated by the same company, which means residents moving from mild forgetfulness into mid-stage dementia rarely have to leave the campus to access secured care. Medicaid sits next to private pay on the rate sheet, dogs and cats are welcome with residents, and Holy Cross Hospital Jordan Valley is less than ten minutes away as the only designated trauma center west of Interstate 15 in the Salt Lake Valley.

The address is in a residential pocket of central Taylorsville off Gold Medal Drive, roughly two miles south of Valley Fair Mall and within a five-to-ten-minute drive of the everyday Redwood Road and Bangerter Highway retail. Salt Lake International Airport is about twenty minutes away for out-of-state family arrivals, downtown Salt Lake City is roughly fifteen minutes by car, and Intermountain Medical Center in Murray adds a second hospital option twelve to fifteen minutes east of the campus.

Legacy House operates under Legacy Retirement Communities, a Western States Lodging and Management brand headquartered in South Jordan. Western States runs assisted-living, memory-care, and continuing-care retirement campuses across the Wasatch Front, with shared training and care-coordination programs that give staff a consistent playbook between properties.
