Beth Arneson
The staff at Walnut Village is great - they treat the residents like family. Our parents moved into Assisted Living in fall 2018. They were welcomed immediately by staff and the other residents. The facility is beautiful - the library upstairs is an amazing space for gatherings and is always decorated for the holidays. Staff kept the residents safe from Covid and our family received direct communication on any needs or care plans. We are so grateful to the staff for the wonderful care they have provided to our parents & highly recommend this team.

The staff are very caring and kind to all of the residents. They have been providing excellent care during these times and filling in as residents family while we aren’t able to be there with them. They are always helpful and are always there to provide care for the residents. It is a great place for senior living!
