At Western States Lodging and Management (WSLM), our mission is clear: Serving You Like Family. This commitment continues to shine as Legacy Retirement Communities, one of our premier senior living brands, celebrates being named a Best of State Utah winner in not one, but two categories—for the third year in a row.
- Best Senior Living – Statewide (All Utah Legacy Communities)
Best Independent Senior Living – Legacy Retirement Residence of South Jordan
These honors aren’t just accolades. They reflect our unwavering dedication to creating vibrant, supportive, and personalized living environments where seniors can thrive.
Why These Awards Matter
Utah’s Best of State Awards recognize organizations that make a meaningful impact in their industry and community. Winners are judged on:
- Excellence in performance (50%)
- Innovation and creativity (30%)
- Positive contributions to quality of life in Utah (20%)
Taking top honors in two senior living categories is a powerful endorsement of our approach to care—and a validation of the incredible associates, residents, and families that bring our communities to life.
What Makes Legacy Senior Living Exceptional?
From the moment you step into a Legacy community, you feel the difference. Our communities offer independent living, assisted living memory care and rehabilitation, but it’s the how that sets us apart:
- The Personal Touch Culture: Every connection we make is rooted in love, respect, and intention. Our associates go beyond care to create loving and meaningful relationships with residents and their families.
- Tailored Lifestyle Plans: No two residents are the same. That’s why we customize care and lifestyle options to support independence and well-being.
- Innovative Memory Support: Our new Engage by Legacy memory care programming uses best practices in dementia care to support both cognitive wellness and emotional connection.
- Daily Enrichment & Community Life: From engaging activities to local partnerships, we ensure every day brings opportunities for joy, growth, and community.
- Beautiful, Purposeful Design: Our thoughtfully designed communities foster independence, comfort, and easy connection—with all the elegance of home.
