About Walnut Place - AL/MC

Walnut Place welcomes seniors to a modern, homelike ambience north of downtown Dallas, Texas. Since 1980, the community has been provided independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and rehabilitation for people 55+. Have peace of mind knowing a hospital is across the street, with additional medical facilities and other hospitals within 10 miles of the community. Between a shopping mall, botanical garden, and museums, seniors have access to a variety of nearby activities and outings. Attend medical appointments or stock up on food from the store through the community’s scheduled transportation. Relax in the sun with other residents on the spacious brick courtyard. Beyond the chef-prepared meals served in the formal restaurant-style dining area, some residents have access to the community’s cafe. Between pet-friendly studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartments, seniors have a choice between which cozy layout best suits them and follows their care needs. The skilled nursing suites are even made to feel more like being at home than just a room with a hospital bed. Feel at ease knowing apartments include an emergency pull cord. With the exception of seniors in independent living, residents have round-the-clock care. Medicaid may be accepted for some care services. At the warm community of Walnut Place, your loved one’s wellness is a priority.

Review for Walnut Place - AL/MC

Mom stayed at Walnut Place for a short respite stay. Walnut Place is a beautiful community, and the staff were amazing and attentive to Mom’s needs. [name removed], the coordinator at Walnut Place, was especially helpful and accommodating throughout the stay. We had hoped to make Walnut Place our regular respite care option; however, they did not have availability during the times we needed. We truly wished Walnut Place could have been a permanent option for Mom, as she really enjoyed her time there.

[name removed] Saves the Days

There from June to sept 2024. The main elevator was often closed for repair. In a center like that that it was a big nuisance. Senior staff turnover was evident. Otherwise very little to say other than the staff was friendly helpful and competent. Aging facility well maintained otherwise.

I only have experience with the memory unit. Mostly they leave people to just sit. Sometimes park them in front of the TV. I have seen nurse aids to be sharp and impatient with these very impaired residents. Once I found my brother in law bleeding. When I asked the nurse aid, she said she told the RN about it but nothing was done. I approached the RN who ignored me while she finished a conversation, and then grudgingly agreed to treat the bleeding area. Patient care for those folks is minimal. Don't know how the re

We picked them because of the proximity and appearance of staff and property. I would recommend to others and they need more staff.

We picked this community because of proximity to high quality hospital, and 24-hour nurses available (on site).

Walnut Place - AL/MC

As far as the snacks go, they don't really offer them. My father is kind of inward with dementia and I have to keep bringing things like maybe a diet soda or wants a donut or the cranberry juice is actually like a fruit powder he would like grapes sliced apples, sliced oranges. The activities seem a bit kind of boring. It would be nice if they had movie night with movies from their generation like from the 50s 40s and played music from 50s and 40s. I was up there at one time and they were playing music from the Vie
