Walnut Place welcomes seniors to a modern, homelike ambience north of downtown Dallas, Texas. Since 1980, the community has been provided independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and rehabilitation for people 55+. Have peace of mind knowing a hospital is across the street, with additional medical facilities and other hospitals within 10 miles of the community. Between a shopping mall, botanical garden, and museums, seniors have access to a variety of nearby activities and outings.
Attend medical appointments or stock up on food from the store through the community’s scheduled transportation. Relax in the sun with other residents on the spacious brick courtyard.

December 13, 2023Thank you for your kind review; we are happy to pass along your comments to the team here at Walnut Place! If you're ever in need of more help, please let us know!
I usually do not write reviews, but I was so impressed with walnut place that I wanted to share my experience. My wife has Alzheimer’s and has trouble keeping her balance. The staff immediately saw that and had her use a walker, which she had refused to use at our house. The nursing staff was first rate. They followed my instructions to the letter in giving her the medication I had provided. The aids were also friendly and accommodating and managed to give my wife several showers during her 6 day stay. My wife told me that whenever I leave to go out of town, that she would like to stay at walnut place. As my wife has Alzheimer’s she stayed in the memory care unit at the facility. In conclusion complements go to the administration staff for holding my hand as I brought my wife to walnut place and to the entire staff on the 5th floor.

Food at walnut place is fantastic from the director of dining to the staff who works in the kitchen. The food is tasty the tacos taste better than a restaurant. The desserts are wonderful and if you don’t want what’s on the menu you can order something like a hotdog, as good as getting it from the state state fair, or a toasted pimento cheese as good as your mom would make. I give dining an A plus A plus.

June 8, 2023Harry, thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! It's great to hear that you had such a fantastic dining experience at Walnut Place. I will be happy to pass on your comments to the staff working in the kitchen. We're thrilled to know that the tacos exceeded your expectations and tasted better than what you would find in a restaurant. We are glad to know the desserts are wonderful. We are also glad that our hotdogs remind you of the ones you would get at the state fair, and the toasted pimento cheese is as good as how your mom made it. Your glowing review and the A+ rating you give to the dining experience at Walnut Place are truly appreciated. We hope you have many more exceptional dining experiences in the future! Mapu Lemanua, Executive Director
I came from California to Texas for a rare surgery and needed a place to stay to heal up until my post op surgery. Walnut Place went over and above my expectations. All staff was courteous. I was well atteneded to making sure my every need was met. The Director of Community Relations, stayed in close contact witih me from our first call until the time I was safe and back at home, I would recommend this home. The middle mark for food was not because the food wasn't good, It was fresh and prepared well. It was just not what I am used to eating.

In working with drs., nursing staff, care givers, and kitchen dietary specialist. Food is followed according to patients needs. Hard work, well done! Every day a new menu is created. It is then matched up with each resident!

My husband and I are very pleased with the attention and care that our family is receiving at Walnut Place Memory Care. The staff are hard workers taking care of the needs, emotional and physical, for our aunt and uncle. We feel they are safe and that is so comforting to us.

The manager at Walnut Place was delightful and kind. But the facility was not what we needed. We didn't like that their Memory Care unit was on an upper floor - we really wanted our loved one to have safe access outdoors whenever she needed some fresh air.

Wonderful experience since the day we had an appointment for the initial tour. My mom started in skilled nursing for 2 weeks and is moving to assisted living on the 6th-floor turnaround. Experts have been so kind to my mom. [name removed] has been amazing and so very helpful! I am extremely happy with Walnut Place and would highly recommend this facility!

I lived in two other facilities prior to moving here. My stay at those other places were short due to improper care! My daughter found Walnut Place. Oh how great Walnut Place is to live in this assisted living. Always a smile and always ready to take care of my needs. [Name removed] and [Name removed] work on the 6th floor. They work many hours when needed to care for us! I am impressed with each of them, maintenance, [name removed] the social director and [name removed]. I place to live here until the end of my time.

January 5, 2023Joann, thank you for sharing your experience. We are so happy to hear that you enjoy living at Walnut Place. We are honored to receive your great review! Thank you, Mapu Lemanua, executive director
My mom has always been very independent until last year. Unfortunately she now has vascular dementia from a stroke. In just a few days she went from independence to now needing to be looked after. Since she's been here at Walnut Place, because she now engages with others and is on regular schedule. She is so afraid she will miss something. My mom, I never thought I would say this is happy and social! Everyone their makes her feel like she belongs, not that she is stuck behind locked doors or a prison. My sister and I went from always arguing with mom about where she lives happily. relieved Mom is happy! Thank you so much, it helps us to know she's taken care of and loved.

The staff and nurses at WP are very professional and are so caring. It was a hard decision to place my mom in a facility due to her healthcare surgery. But at WP they made the situation at hand very smooth and very helpful in every step of the way. I recommend WP and give them all rave review. The best place in all Dallas area.
