Focused on creating an experience where residents receive the highest possible level of dignity, respect, and independence, extensively trained caregivers ensure residents have the supportive care they need by providing personal assistance and a helping hand.

CiminoCare offers apartments that open to common rooms to support this community atmosphere. Housekeeping and home maintenance are taken care of by the staff, leaving residents to enjoy their time as they choose.

Experienced caregivers provide personal assistance with daily living activities, always treating residents like family. 24-hour staffing helps provide residents with the care they need.

The overall tour we had at Walnut House was good. It's just the place was a lot smaller than the other places and a lot older, and the folks seemed older, too. The person that we were supposed to have for the tour wasn't around. So, we were left sitting for a few minutes until finally somebody came and took us around. The lady was nice, but kind of rattled because she wasn't assigned to do what she was doing. As far as cleanliness and everything, it looked great. The dining room was small but it was clean and nice. The rooms also seemed nice. They had a little bit larger square footage. It was just the general feel of the whole place, for us, it wasn't that great. It was older and it looked like a nursing home.

The two ladies that helped me at Walnut House were nice. They had a courtyard where they could sit in the sun, but for the money that they charge for people to live there, the place itself was very unkempt. It didn't look clean or inviting. It's just old.

My mom stayed at Walnut House Senior Living for almost three years, but we didn't realize that she had advanced dementia. She's gone back and forth to the hospital because she was falling and everything. I liked the facility, but it's bigger than where my mom is now which is a residential home, where they are more hands on and they check her more. Walnut House was more of a facility. You could have a 1-bedroom or your own room. They furnish your bed and your dresser and you could have a TV and cable. They had activities like bingo, they had a movie room, an activity room, you could do different things like cooking and a lot of different hobbies, and you could get your hair done. I got along with the staff because I would go and get my mom whenever all the time. I got along with some of the med techs and the administrator. My mom liked a lot of them, like the CNAs. I didn't see too many of them, but my mom liked all of them. She got along with everybody, and she had friends there where she would go. I never ate there, but my mom enjoyed the food, and it looked good. It's an older place, but it wasn't like a nursing home or a rehab. You could go to Wal-Mart or wherever. They had better activities. I really liked Walnut House. My mom was happy there. Value for money was very good because it was by level. She was a level 1. She was pretty independent where she could take her own shower, but as the level goes up, you get more care and you pay more.

When I took a tour of Walnut House, I was impressed. It was homey. The rooms had nice-looking wallpaper on one wall and the carpets throughout were clean. It looked neat and that was one of the reasons I wanted to put my mother-in-law in there. There are times where I don't think the care is as good as it could be, but I think you run into this in every single caregiving facility (and I've been in quite a few because of placing my father). Some of them really do care and others are there just because they have to have a job. The activities are okay. She loves Bingo, but she's probably not enjoying as much as some other residents would. She doesn't watch movies and she doesn't gamble. They have casino days and other people would be interested in that, but she won't participate. I haven't experienced the food, but she is kind of a picky eater and if she says it's good, so it must be pretty good.

Walnut House is very old. The rooms, the common rooms, the dining room, and all that are all clean but old. It was almost affordable for us, but not quite. They had only one meal provided, and you could pay extra to get more meals if you wanted. It did have a kitchenette, laundry was available but you have to pay for it, weekly housekeeping, small patio, units of a good size, and nice people. Part of that building was assisted living and the other part was for independent living, which was kind of long and sprawled out, so the independent living people would have to walk quite a way in order to get to the dining room. It had a lot of things that we were looking for. So, even though it was old, it had everything and would have been OK to put mom there, but it still was a little out of her price range.

It's very nice, we like Walnut House the best. It's excellent, we were very impressed with the people and with the way it was kept and even the people that were staying there that we met. I would recommend this facility to others.

I have visited this facilities quite a few times for many reasons. At first I used to visit if because I was applying for a job and was hoping to get a call back. The next few times it was because I was looking to find a assisted living facilities for my grandmother. The employees are very friendly and overall the facility is very clean and well put together. Although when you are there you still feel like you are in a convalescent home it still makes you feel like you can make it your own home. The care givers were continuously helping the elderly with whatever they needed and kept great care of them very well. They had daily games and events that they had in order to keep the elderly entertained. The food given to the elderly was usually pretty good also and not old unappetizing.
