Walnut Place offers Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care, allowing residents to transition between support levels without changing communities. The care team can work with residents who wander during the day or night, have a history of elopement, present behavioral challenges, stay awake overnight, require wound care or supplemental oxygen, and manage diabetes controlled by oral medication. The community also accepts individuals with advanced dementia and other complex cognitive conditions.
Care delivery is reinforced by licensed nurses on site, an RN/LPN available 24 hours a day, and an awake night shift. Pull-cord systems and personal emergency response devices can contact staff or 911 directly, and doors are alarmed with wander-guard technology for added security. Background-checked caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they can handle every level of mobility support from standby help to two-person or Hoyer-lift transfers, including bed-bound care. Podiatry visits are offered on site, and the staff is comfortable coordinating care for residents with psychiatric diagnoses. An activity director oversees daily programming that is adapted to each resident’s ability level.
Apartments range from studios to larger floor plans, some equipped with kitchenettes, individual climate controls, and cable connections. Because layouts vary, not every unit includes every feature, and prospective residents should confirm specifics during a tour. Independent-living residents receive regular housekeeping services, letting them maintain freedom from routine chores while enjoying the privacy of their own space.
Meals are prepared by the culinary team and served on a set schedule, but residents can also order alternate selections to suit personal tastes. Specialized diets are accommodated, and staff members monitor meal intake when necessary for health reasons. This approach supports residents who need structured nutrition plans while still giving those in Independent Living the flexibility they prefer.
Amenities include resident parking, exterior smoking areas, and a pet-friendly policy; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. The building is fully wheelchair accessible and features a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, and reliable internet access. Residents can relax in communal gardens, travel between floors using a stair glide, and schedule transportation for local outings. Public transit stops are nearby for those who prefer independent travel.
