“Evergreen is the very best at what they can help with, and that is caring for your family member as though they were part of their own family.  It is a privately owned facility and every service they provide is the epitome of personal.  Martha and Esmeralda, Administrators are extremely careful to select staff who not only care for each resident with great love and compassion, but also care for the family and friends of the residents as though an extension of your family.  Each staff member displays an obvious passion for what they do.  This small home environment was given to us as a gift from God.  Mom was only with them for about two months before she passed, and these extraordinary people fell in love with a woman who was already in advanced stages of dementia and had very little capacity to express her own gratitude for the much needed love and care she received.  Even when Mom passed these people grieved as though she was their own family whom they had lost.  Dementia is such a cruel condition and Evergreen and its Staff offset that cruelty with compassion and love that made it all better; you know, like mommy kissing the hurt so it would go away.  They count it a privilege that you would trust them with the one you love.  I could go on and on, but just visit them; you'll see what I'm referring to.  Oh, and the cost is the best you will find anywhere!  This is wholly sincere, and without exaggeration.  Take a tour, you won't be disappointed.  Thank you again Evergreen!”

"I wanted to write to you to tell you how pleased I am with your facility.  My mother has been living in the memory care area since May or June.  Although it was the hardest decision we've had to make, I believe it was the best thing we could have done for my mom.

My parents had been married for 60 years when my dad became ill in 2010.  He eventually died in October of that year and it was like my mom had fallen off an emotional cliff.  A dementia that had already been noticeable became rapidly worse.  She's stubborn though, so she initially refused to leave their house.  Eventually, she became hospitalized and couldn't go home again, which gave us an opportunity to move her to your facility.

I have been so impressed with everyone at Evergreen!  Martha Brewer made me feel comfortable about the facility right away, patiently explaining the paperwork and answering all our questions.  She continues to be incredibly kind and helpful every time I see her.  Esmeralda has also been very helpful, especially with any medical concerns we've had with my mom.  The caregivers taking care of my mom are wonderful, I have not met anyone yet who I haven't liked.  The are all so good with my mom and I know she can be difficult at times.  They all treat her with respect and are always very loving and kind to her.  I especially want to commend Gladys, Brian, Rosie, Esmeralda, and Lisa who we see frequently when we visit.  They are outstanding! I know there are people that I'm forgetting to mention; just know that everyone I've dealt with there has been kind, polite, patient, and nice.  I'd especially like to thank Gladys for making my mom look so pretty when we picked her up for Thanksgiving.  She had done her hair and makeup and she looked great!  That was so nice of Gladys to do that and we appreciated it very much.

I also want to commend Jessica, the activities director.  She's very sweet and does a good job of getting the residents involved in the activities.  I like the way she does their nails and make up and of course, dancing!  I love to watch Maria Torres dancing, she obviously enjoys it a lot.

I almost forgot to mention the food.  I am very impressed!  You have a great cook.  The food always looks appetizing and smells great.  My mom seems to enjoy it and has made comments herself about how good the food is.

All in all, Evergreen is a great place with a great staff.  I looked at 6-8 places before your facility but as soon as I met Martha, I knew I had found a "home" for my mom.  Thank you and your staff for taking such good care of my mom."

"We don't reside in the area, but we were kept informed of our Aunt's needs on a regular basis. Our questions were always answered in a caring and professional way, and they listened to our concerns with patience and understanding.

Because we sometimes hear negative comments about Assisted Living facilities, we felt we had to comment about our experience.  Our Aunt was not always easy to care for, but two of God's 'Angels on Earth' and their helpers dealt with the situation in a professional, vigilant and caring manner.  They most certainly are people doing what they were meant to be doing.  They are highly recommended."

"My mother has been at Evergreen for some 3 years now and she and I have been very happy with the care received there.  Although my mother has early Alzheimer's,  she states everyone treats her very nice, and every time I call her she is in a good mood and laughs quite a bit.   Upon my visits, the staff is very friendly and acknowledges me by name.  The staff really tries to create a family feel, and the facility is maintained very well.  I like that Evergreen has a doctor that comes to the facility for medical care, and the pharmacy they use is very professional and uses a method that is full proof when it comes to distributing meds correctly to Evergeen's clients.  As far as cost,  Evergreen is the most economical assisted living facility that I had visited when I was looking for a place for my mother.  I highly recommend Evergreen Residence to anyone who is looking for a place for an aging  parent."

"Our family did our best to take care of our Mom for as long as we could at home.....  The time finally came when it was no longer possible.  Any one who is reading this is probably getting close to making the same decisions we've had to.

We visited many places, trying to find the right "fit" for Mom.  When we met with Martha at Evergreen and toured the Alzheimer's wing, we were impressed with the calm caring attitude of everyone there.  Those of you dealing with a loved one with this disease can understand how important a calm, caring environment is.  We especially like the spacious size of the bedrooms, as well as the layout of the building.  Mom is active, and needs to feel free to roam about "keeping busy".

Our primary goal was to have Mom placed were she would be safe, and cared for 24 hours a day.  Evergreen has filled our great need, and we are all able to have peace in our hearts knowing Mom is safe, cared for, and occupied with day to day activities we could no longer supply."

“They have been good to me.  They really try to please me here.  I lived at home for 20 years by myself, and I tried to get live-in help, but was a terrible experience.  My daughter-in-law and I interviewed many girls and just couldn't find good dependable help.”
