Walnut Garden III, found at 12802 Collins St. in Valley Village, is a small care home for the elderly with six licensed beds, making it easier for staff to give each person careful attention, and it always felt pretty peaceful with only a handful of residents to look out for. They offer adult care facilities, adult family homes, and foster care services, and help older adults with things like getting dressed, grooming, taking their medicine, and just keeping life comfortable as folks age. Their business manager, Izhak Illouz, keeps things running at several Walnut Garden locations, and this place is a part of a group that also includes Walnut Garden Valley Village, Walnut Garden Too, Walnut Garden IV, and Walnut Garden V, which is coming soon.
They provide many services you'd expect at a senior care community-including assisted living, independent living, memory care, nursing home features, respite care, adult day care, adult day health care, home care, hospice care, behavioral health, and even some rehabilitation support. Some areas are set aside just for residents with Alzheimer's or dementia, and the staff pays close attention to safety by stopping wandering and helping with anxiety, so families can feel a bit more at ease knowing there's 24-hour supervision. The community has support for medical needs, comfort, and security, and they're good at tailoring daily care to what each person actually needs, which is nice, because no one situation is ever the same as another.
You'll see that housing includes extra supportive living features and all the amenities you usually find in residential care homes for elderly folks, and things are set up to promote dignity and independence even as staff helps with day-to-day tasks. They have activities and foster chances for socializing, so it doesn't feel lonely. Walnut Garden III isn't certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and doesn't take Medicare payments, so families will have to plan for costs themselves. Licensing considerations are important here and professional standards are followed, since this is a licensed Residential Care Elderly facility-as listed in the Senior Care Home Directory. Above all, this community focuses on keeping residents safe and secure in a warm, clean setting, and gives peace of mind to families by providing constant care from people who know how to help with elder needs.
