My father is in Walker Methodist Health Center, and it looks clean. They're woefully understaffed and I have nothing against any immigrants coming here, but a lot of times the language barrier is there, and that's tough. He's in there for physical therapy, so they've been helping him with physical therapy, but he's reluctant to do much of it, so it's just not going well. Everybody I talked to there seemed good and they were all nice people. But, when I would call and stuff, I had a problem getting through because of the language barrier. And then I think I think everybody is short-staffed and we just need more people working there, and these people certainly need to be paid more money. They seem to park everybody in a circle so one person can watch them in front of the TV because of the short staffing, and then sometimes somebody will come in and play the piano, which is very nice. I think all the residents appreciate that. I think you pay a lot of money and unfortunately, it doesn't go to the right places. It goes right to the top and unfortunately, the elderly suffers.

A friend of mine lives at the Minneapolis location. After discovering he tested positive for COVID he was asked to quarantine for 14 days. In that time, no one reached out and showed any concern. He called multiple people over two days to find out protocol once he was done with the quarantine and no one has returned his calls. This place is very unprofessional. I would not recommend it to anyone.

Walker Methodist Health Center was nice and very organized and I was amazed how well they did to my father. I couldn't have gotten him back walking. They knew what they're doing, they knew how to treat it and they accomplished the goal. The staff was very nice. They did the job they needed to do. The food was mostly good. They had some group activities like practicing and challenging him to try to remember things and for his memory skills.

Room was dirty, dingy. Furniture was old and used. We reported dirt on serving tray for 5 weeks. Never cleaned. They never vacuumed under the bed entire stay. Staff needs more training on equipment usage. Equipment was often out of order and had to wait for availability of lift equipment. Wait times for call lights to be answered were often too long. Some staff are very good and they are over worked. Some of the staff do not speak English very clearly and they are hard to understand. That is frustrating for both the patient and the staff. Food was terrible, cold. Food service is unorganized. One person fixes one tray at a time and aids stand and watch and deliver one tray at a time. Takes forever while people wait for meals. Choose a different facility if you can. We do not recommend it. Complaints seemed to make things worse. I was there for re-hab so did not participate in activities.

My brother has been living in assisted living at Walker Place since August. It is perfect for him. It's a vibrant community with independent and assisted living. The staff is wonderful, caring, and supportive. I can go to them if I have any concerns about my brother, and they're taken care of right away. They have a fitness room, a chapel, a medical center next door, meals, metro mobility that can take residents to doctors' appointments, and outings where they use a van. They also have laundry and someone who does weekly cleaning. He has an apartment with a kitchenette, living room, bedroom, and bathroom.

I really liked Walker Methodist. The location was great because it was right in the heart of Minneapolis. It had recently been redone and was beautiful. It was very comfortable, but the bathroom was small, and that was a deal breaker. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly.
