Walnut Garden Too

Why we like it

• Part of a 5-home cluster in Valley Village

  Walnut Garden operates five homes in the same neighborhood — four on Collins Street and one on Cedros Avenue in Sherman Oaks. This concentration means shared resources, backup staff, and a level of operational infrastructure unusual for board and cares.

• Accepts Medi-Cal through the ALW program

  Participates in the Assisted Living Waiver, making this accessible to residents who qualify for Medi-Cal coverage. Combined with the 'luxury' positioning, that's a notable combination of quality and affordability.

• Central Valley location with good accessibility

  Valley Village sits in a central San Fernando Valley location with easy access to the 101 and 170 freeways. Convenient for families across the Valley and reasonably accessible from central LA.

• Philosophy centered on independence and dignity

  Walnut Garden's stated approach is to assist with daily living while keeping independence and dignity intact. They work closely with families to address individual preferences — a good sign for personalized care.

• 5 years of operation across a growing network

  This specific location has been licensed since June 2020. While the network provides stability, rapid expansion from one home to five within a few years can strain staffing and management attention. Ask about caregiver-to-resident ratios and turnover.

• Website is dated and provides limited detail

  The Walnut Garden website is outdated with limited information about specific services, daily activities, or meal quality. Plan to visit in person — the web presence doesn't reflect what you'll actually experience.
