Contact Us Schedule A Tour About Legacy Health Services Legacy Health Services’ rich history began over fifty years ago. Alex and Esther Daskal, concentration camp survivors, immigrated to the United States after World War II. Mr. Daskal wanted to start his own business, so he saved his money and purchased a small long-term care facility on Chester Avenue in Cleveland. Mr. & Mrs. Daskal worked tirelessly to make the facility successful, including regularly working in dietary, laundry and housekeeping. In the 1960s, Mr. Daskal partnered with several family members to purchase what is today known as Broadview Multi-Care Center. Over the next decade, the small company began to expand by adding two more facilities, one of which is now Pleasantview Care Center. Bruce Daskal, Mr. And Mrs. Daskal’s son, joined the family business after earning his master’s degree in 1974. His vision was to grow the company beyond the Parma area, so Franklin Plaza was acquired in the 1970s. In the 1980s, Pleasant Lake Villa was the first facility built by Legacy Health Services from the ground up. The expansion continued over the next couple decades with the addition of Cedarwood Plaza and Hillside Plaza in 1995. Legacy went on to build and open Orchard Villa in 1996, and Parkside Villa in 2001 as well as expand and renovate several facilities within the company. Wickliffe Country Place was added to the company in 2007. In an effort to continue to meet the growing needs of the community, affiliate companies providing hospice and nurse practitioner services were also created. Most recently, Mapleview Country Villa was built in Chardon, Ohio and opened in 2015. Legacy Health Services is still owned and operated by the same founding family, with the third generation now involved in the management team. We have grown to employ over 2,500 individuals, manage over 1700 nursing home beds and 150 assisted living beds. Our Family Caring for Yours is as true today as it was when Mr. Daskal started his first facility over fifty years ago. The number of lives touched by Legacy Health Services continues to grow exponentially as we continue to provide the highest quality of life to those entrusted to our care.
