Walnut Valley Senior Living offers assisted living with a wide scope of medical support. The community is prepared for residents who wander day or night, are prone to elopement, stay up all night, require wound care, use oxygen, need special diets, or manage diabetes with oral medication. Care teams are trained to support residents under 60 and those living with advanced dementia. Full-assistance help with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting is available, and staff can accommodate mobility needs ranging from walkers and wheelchairs to one-person, two-person, and bed-bound transfers. On-site podiatry services reduce the need for outside appointments.
Registered nurses and licensed practical nurses are on staff, and a nurse is on call 24 hours a day. All employees undergo background checks, and an awake night shift ensures continuous monitoring. Safety measures include 24-hour security, fenced rear grounds, alarmed doors, pull-cord alerts, and personal emergency response systems that link directly to staff. An activity director coordinates daily programs, keeping residents engaged while clinical staff remain readily accessible.
Accommodations include private bathrooms, some units with kitchenettes, independent temperature controls, cable hookups, and the option for residents to paint or decorate their rooms. Not every apartment has every feature, so families should confirm availability during a tour.
Dining operates on an on-order system that lets residents choose meals at each sitting. Snacks are available throughout the day, and the culinary team manages physician-ordered diets, including diabetic, low-sodium, and other specialized menus.
Amenities and services include resident parking, outdoor smoking areas, pet-friendly policies, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, and scheduled transportation with easy access to public transit. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
