Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (1)
  1. $113.8 million spent. Legacy Healthcare Services provides physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech language pathology, and wellness services to the geriatric population in assisted living, independent living, continuing care retirement, and memory care communities across the United States. Legacy's corporate office is located in Raleigh, North Carolina. The company also provides services at skilled nursing facilities and in numerous Medicare-certified out-patient clinics under contract arrangement. Legacy's therapeutic techniques and programs incorporate principles of rehabilitation and healthy aging while emphasizing home and community independence. The services provided are both rehabilitative and preventative with a strong component of health and fitness education. Legacy also offers a variety of clinical programs aimed at ensuring that the seniors that are served are provided with every opportunity to live their best life. Legacy's model incorporates the concept that an on-site therapy clinic based in assisted and independent living communities will benefit the residents of those communities. By creating an environment of familiarity and trust, the company's therapists are well-positioned to identify subtle changes in independence. Left unaddressed, these changes may be the tipping point for reduced mobility, advancing isolation, and premature aging.
