Walnut House
Walnut House
Walnut House operates a 110-bed residential property in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, combining skilled nursing care and assisted living options under one roof. Run by Solar Sr. Lvg, LLC and Ciminocare, with administrator Diana Paz at the helm, the building provides continuous care setups for seniors who can no longer live completely alone. The surrounding neighborhood carries a walk score of 43, indicating a car-dependent layout where out-of-town visitors or local relatives will need a vehicle to handle common errands outside the grounds.
The everyday program centers on personal care assistance, clinical nursing oversight, and scheduled group activities designed to keep residents socially involved. Because the facility accommodates multiple stages of aging, staff members modify daily supervision routines based on whether a resident requires basic household help or intensive medical monitoring. The business office accepts traditional Medicare, state Medicaid, and private pay options, allowing families to evaluate several different financial pathways to fund a long-term stay.
The Tennessee Department of Health monitors residential nursing and assisted living buildings through periodic field inspections to evaluate physical safety, cleanliness, and clinical protocols. Past state review logs have highlighted multiple compliance concerns and operational citations at this location, making it practical to ask the director for their official corrective action plans and latest safety updates when you visit.
Families can contact the intake department at (615) 896-2774 to request information regarding current room availability or specific medical admission rules.
