Senior Living Communities in Lubbock, Texas: A Family Atmosphere
Hello, I'm Melanie Klemer,
the Executive Director at The Legacy at South Plains.
Since 2019, I have been privileged to serve the wonderful residents and family members of The Legacy at South Plains. My leadership is centered around improving the quality of life for residents, streamlining operations, and ensuring that our community remains engaging and supportive.
Originally from England, my global perspective enriches my role, combining diverse experiences with a strong commitment to senior living. I have maintained a deep focus on resident care and satisfaction through strategic growth and enhanced operational efficiencies.
My personal life is filled with joy. I have been married for 11 years and am a proud parent to four daughters and three beloved corgis.
Driven by a genuine passion for senior living, I am committed to making a meaningful impact in the lives of older adults, ensuring they receive the highest standard of care and support. I look forward to welcoming you and your family to our assisted living and memory care community.
Sincerely,
Melanie Klemer

They also spend relaxing afternoons in the library or the on-site salon. While we offer the same fun as other retirement communities in Lubbock, TX, we also provide additional support services.

Families See the Difference Between Us and Nursing Homes in Lubbock, TX
We moved Mother from another large community in Lubbock. I wish we had done it sooner. The staff truly care and love Mother. She is eating so much better. The food is delicious, with a lot of choices if you aren’t fond of the special for the day. Every staff member I have encountered has shown genuine care and passion. Everyone is always so happy and willing to help.”
