My mom has been a resident of Walnut Grove Retirement Community for over 4 years. From the moment she moved in it has been such a welcoming community. All staff members are committed to helping the residents feel like family. Many staff members have gone beyond their job description and have visited residents who have been hospitalized and are quick with a hug or reassuring word. They have great activities to keep the residents active either in the facility or on bus trips. I really appreciate the transportation to appointments also. The meals are very thought out and balanced. If you are curious if Walnut Grove is a good fit for your loved one don't hesitate to set up a meeting to tour. I highly recommend this place.

Change is not easy. Moving from a small town to a city is not easy. Moving out of your family home is not easy.<br>What was easy was the decision to chose Walnut Grove Retirement Community.<br>We had done a ton of research and visited a lot of communities and all were fine places, but when my parents walked into the lobby at Walnut Grove and was greeted by Amber, it was a done deal!<br>Both my parents commented that they had a good feeling the moment they walked in.<br>The apartment, the food, the amenities and activities are all great, like many other places, but what makes Walnut Grove stand out is the staff! Second to none in our opinion.<br>It is hard to adequately put into words, it is one of those things where you have to experience it to understand.<br>Walnut Grove staff, thanks for treating my parents with respect, honor and love.<br>You guys are the best!

As a visitor who was able to come in and spend the day working with and for the residents, I found this location to be welcoming, open and a wonderful place to be! The residents spoke highly of their experiences living here and were hungry for the people who were there to spend extra time with them. The staff is friendly and open to all the needs of the residents and visitors. My only complaint is that I don't live close enough to come and visit more often!

I started working with Amber last year needing to move my loved one to Omaha. Amber was incredibly professional and helped me talk to my relative and answer questions and alleviate concerns regarding such a big change. We moved her in December and have been so pleased with the condition of her apt. At move in, the help we have received when asking questions, the food and activity offering is second to none and the rest of the staff are all so caring and nice. I would recommend this retirement community above anything else I toured in Omaha ad I believe it's second to none. Thankful we made this choice for the first phase of transition from living at home.
