My dad has recently been placed at Evergreen and I want to sincerely express gratitude towards the nurses, administrators, social worker, and everyone there. He has been treated with dignity, kindness, patience, and compassion. The facility is wonderfully taken care of; It is always clean, they offer consistent activities and offer great meals. The nursing team has been wonderful in terms of helping him maintain his blood sugars, medication management and everything in between. The administration and social worker have really gone out of their way to be helpful, as this is my first time trying to navigate an aging parent. I’m so thankful he was placed here and would recommend this facility for anyone who is looking for assisted living. Thank you to the whole staff!! You all do amazing work and are much appreciated!

I would recommend Evergreen Estates 2 I have lived here for twelve years, have met and lost many friends over those twelve years and that has been difficult at times. But is expected when elderly. I would really want to make sure that I am happy here and have been for years. A testament to a wonderful recommendation.
