Walnut Creek Alzheimer's Special Care Center

This is a great facility & works really well for our needs It is a clean facility, very well organized facility Very professional staff ?? They do a lot of activities, piano & cornhole It was beautiful decorated for 4th of July

The main concern is that they are understaffed at Walnut Creek, which is probably a problem everywhere. The staff that they do have, however, is proficient, caring, and friendly. Mom enjoys the food, it's fresh, tasty and very nutritious. And if there's a food she doesn't like, they gladly make her something else. We would recommend the facility.

Overall, I recommend Walnut Creek.

My loved one was briefly a resident at Walnut Creek Alzheimer's Special Care Center and the whole experience was great. The staff and the facility were wonderful. Based on our experience, I would recommend Walnut Creek to others.

We picked this community because it's closer and more caring.

Make sure people understand that they are not getting skilled nursing and that you will have to keep a close eye on the physical wellbeing of your parent.

The staff the community has is good. I just feel the staff is stretched thin in caring for the residents. I would recommend you look at several different communities and ask lots of questions about the care, staffing, other questions.

When our loved one was on hospice the hospice team was wonderful and the nurses at Walnut Creek that were by our loved ones side were phenomenal, outstanding and extremely compassionate. We do understand when you are serving this many people at once it is hard to please everyone, but the meals and dining service could use some improvement.

Very compassionate staff. My mother broke her hip during her first stay at Walnut Creek. Went to rehab for nine weeks and we have chosen to go back to Walnut Creek rather than stay in the current facility. Primary reasons are engagement in activities, smaller facility, more consistent staff and cost.

They have a good friendly staff here. I would highly recommend the community to others for their loved ones. The staff are very helpful to answer any questions or address any concerns the family may have about our loved one. Crafts, painting, library, an outdoor space, a lot of group of activities and more are some of the activities for the residents to choose. My loved one likes the food. There is a beautician on site for manicures, pedicures, and hair. There is also a doctor on staff for the residents that comes once a week.

The staff seem to really take ownership over what they are doing and the different care levels for the residents they are caring or. We have had previous experiences at many different communities and it is the complete opposite. We would recommend Walnut Creek community to anybody in the country, put this place first on your list if you live in this area or around the area. We do not believe there would be one person dissatisfied, this place stands so for above it is almost to good to be true

We had a good experience overall. It was a nice and friendly place. The admissions process was easy. They were able to take us on short notice, and everything went smoothly. They were not always as attentive to incontinence issues as I would have liked, but the care was still really good.

The community gives a tranquillizer if your loved one becomes combative. I did speak to the director and they were quick to resolve any situation for my loved one. The community was quick to assist our loved one in transiting into the community and into the next phase of life. The staff were very helpful.

This community is the best place available. They are well-staffed and professional, the director is hands on and in the community, and everyone knows us and my loved one. I had high expectations and have never been disappointed. I would definitely recommend this community

We chose Walnut Creek because we were in a time crunch and it was one of the nicest facilities that we had toured. It is smaller and more intimate than some of the bigger places with better individualized care. The room sizes were great, he was in a semi-private room. The food was also great, I ate here quite a bit and they were all chef prepared meals. My favorite part about the community was how friendly everybody was, they make everyone feel included with activities.

I have more questions. Are there medical staff on site? The Facility is Visually appealing. The Residents are active and engaged with each other and the staff.

I am not very happy with the way this facility is taking care of my grandparents. They ignore their needs, give them medicine that isn't even theirs, and does not listen to their concerns or help them when they need help in a timely manner.

This place is amazing! They have treated my mom like a queen. She’s changed so much since moving in. She’s happy and laughs and has so many friends!

I cannot say enough about how wonderful the staff at Walnut creek is. They go over and above to deliver personalized care for my mother with the utmost dignity and respect. The facility is spotless and setup in a way to allow freedom of movement and a variety of areas for activities. This has been a difficult time for our family but knowing the professional specialized care she receives there has done much to lift our spirits. [Removed] is always available to answer any questions.

This is a well-run facility. The staff is great. They treat the patients with love and respect. It is like a home for the patients. My husband liked it there. The family is always welcome. Many activities include the family. Compassionate care in action.
