Walnut Trace in Gahanna, Ohio, offers residents an independent living option. The community does not provide specialized dementia care, so it is best suited for adults who do not need memory support but still want the reassurance of a monitored setting and access to routine wellness oversight.
Care delivery is anchored by staff members who have undergone background checks. Team members can assist with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting for residents who need help with these tasks while otherwise living independently. For mobility, the staff can support transfers involving walkers or wheelchairs, making daily movement safer and more reliable for those with limited balance or strength.
Residences at Walnut Trace vary in size and layout. Some offer in-unit kitchenettes, private baths, and individual climate controls, while others have more basic configurations. Housekeeping and maintenance are provided for all units, but not every apartment includes features such as step-in showers or patio space.
Meals are prepared on site and served in a communal dining room. Standard service includes three meals a day, with accommodations for common dietary restrictions available upon request. Snacks and beverages are accessible between meals, and residents may choose to dine in their apartments if they are recuperating or prefer additional privacy.
Resident parking is available for those who still drive. Routine transportation for medical appointments and errands can be arranged through the front desk, and scheduled social outings are offered when enough residents sign up.
