Signature Programs
Our Signature Programs follow a complete-person approach to caring for seniors through health, nutrition, fitness, cognitive stimulation, social engagement, creative expression, and spiritual fulfillment. This program goes beyond your standard calendar and focuses on creating positive and life affirming moments.
What is The Mariners Program?
The Mariners Program is a complete-person approach to life enrichment that allows for each resident to navigate and guide their own journey. While most Assisted Living Communities create a one-sized fits all activity calendar, The Mariners Program is created by the residents, for the residents, and focuses on life-long learning, exciting and interesting outings, intergenerational programming, and honoring ones purpose.
What is A Compassionate Cuisine?
Here at Walnut Valley, we understand not only the physiological need for nutrition and hydration, but the joy and fulfillment that comes from enjoying our favorite foods and the social dining experience. For most it is an incredibly important part of our social being and daily life. We have worked to design a philosophy and approach to dining so that each resident suffering from dementia can still enjoy their favorites foods, feel a social connection, and nourish their bodies, all while maintaining their dignity.
Meaningful Moments
The Meaningful Moments Program is a complete-person approach to caring for and engaging those living with Dementia. We take the time to learn about each residents likes, dislikes, abilities, and limitations in order to create a stimulating social schedule built for them to succeed.
