Walnut Villa

We have had the incredible good fortune to have Dad cared for by the staff at Walnut Villa for 3+ years. Dad has a degenerative brain disease. The care he has received from Ray, Marvin and the rest of the staff has been kind and compassionate. I can’t say enough about this board and care home. The attention to care is impeccable.

The quality of the care of Walnut Villa is tremendous. Ray, Sylvia and Marvin are the caregivers and are patient and kind. Sylvia, who takes care of Vinnie, is meticulous about cleanliness. Ray is the main cook and does a great job with fish and chips. Yes, homemade fish and chips in an assisted living home! Marvin is always available to help with anything. I cannot say enough nice things about Walnut Villa.

I was very dissatisfied with the board and care facility my 90 year old parents were at and Walnut Villa was recommended as an alternative. I was very wary given the problems I was having with the first facility and I absolutely did not want to have my parents going through a second move in just a few months. Walnut Villa’s owner, Mann Salvador, recommended we come on a trial basis. That seemed like a great option so we set a date. Then a couple of days before we were to move in on a trial basis my Dad was hospitalized with pneumonia. We went ahead and moved Mom in and boy am I glad! For the first time she allowed someone to help her with toileting, bathing and dressing. One of the caregivers at the former Board and Care facility said to me — «Why didn’t she let us help her?» when I told her Mom was letting Rey and Silvia provide assistance. I didn’t say it but I thought «probably because of the „expert“ approach they used and how cared for they made Mom feel.»
We had my Dad discharged from hospital directly into hospice care at Walnut Villa and they took great care of him. When he arrived Dad couldn’t get out of bed. He had to be hand fed pureed food. Four months later, even though he was declining, he was feeding himself and they were helping him get out of bed and go outdoors in a wheelchair. The caregivers were always there and always patient. Rey kept me informed of all issues and contacted Hospice regularly to get advice and nursing assistance when appropriate. I will be forever grateful.

After much research we chose Walnut Villa as a home for my mother-​in-​law when she could no longer care for herself. What a blessing we found there! The place is very clean and organized. The rooms are large and spotless (and cheery). The location is quiet and safe.
The caregivers (especially Ray, Sylvia & Marvin) could not be nicer. We were not sure about how my mother-​in-​law would adjust as she had cared for herself at home for many, many years. The very next day after we moved her in she told us that angels were taking care of her. They are so respectful and helpful, catering to her every need. Ray is a wonderful cook and makes whatever she requests. They anticipate her needs and are constantly checking on her.
If you are looking for a safe, secure, well-​managed facility for your loved one, you need not look any further. Walnut Villa is a place that will treat you like family.

My 79 year old mother received the best care near the end of her life. The care givers are so friendly and will go above and beyond to make your love one feel at home and cared for. Walnut Villa is a cozy place to live and is so very clean. The food is so good, Ray is a wonderful cook! My family and I were so blessed to have found such a caring environment.
