New Assisted Living and Memory Care Residence Planned for West Wichita

Wichita, Kansas – Wichita based Legend Senior Living announced plans today to construct a free standing assisted living and memory care residence in West Wichita.  Located in the North Ridge Village Addition, just south of K96, Legend at North Ridge Village will offer 51 private Assisted Living apartments and 15 private suites dedicated to Memory Care.  

Legend at North Ridge Village will provide individually tailored assistance to older adults who can no longer live alone, but don’t require the advanced level of skilled medical care provided by a nursing home.  The non-institutional residence emphasizes a homelike residential design with an interior courtyard featuring landscaped porches and patios.  The care model emphasizes programming and services developed to help older adults maintain a rich quality of life.  

The Reflections Memory Care neighborhood will combine beautiful private suites, specially trained staff and individually designed life enrichment programs designed to meet the needs of individuals with memory impairments such as Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. 

Legend Senior Living is purchasing the land through Marlin Penner with NAI John T. Arnold Associates Inc.  Legend Senior Living plans to break ground on the new project in May 2011. WDM Architects will design the project.
