Fantastic first look at Evergreen a few days ago with my mother in law and husband. We got a 5-star tour from Paul. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and truly seemed to love his job. He took the time to answer all questions in a very caring and thoughtful manner.<br><br>The buildings and grounds are immaculate. Everything looked squeaky clean and tidy. And the amenities…just to name a few…2 pools, fishing dock, pontoon boat rides, craft room, lapidary room, on site PT, 3 restaurants, excursions, entertainment, etc.<br><br>What truly stuck us were the residents and staff we briefly met. All were so very friendly to us. They took the time to greet us in the hallway ways. No doubt they really seemed to love Evergreen.<br><br>5-Stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟⭐️

We really like it here. Help is easy to get and everyone is pleased to help. Surroundings are nice, especially many flower beds and they are well kept.

I have been inside Evergreen on numerous occasions as a vendor. The facility was always clean and organized. Interior is a little dated but has been well maintained. The kitchen was clean and hygienic. They offer some fun past times for the residents, like the flea market in the basement, the pool, some of the PT work they do was creative and stimulating for those engaged. I wouldn’t be opposed to having a relative here if the situation arose.

UPDATE: THANK YOU to the management at Evergreen for posting clear signage on several walls in the Behnke room.<br><br>My original review: I have personally experienced the hearing loops installed in the Arlene Sitter Performing Arts Center and the Behnke rooms on numerous occasions during lectures, music performances and resident council meetings. These phased array loops work exceedingly well. I can sit anywhere in auditoriums and hear each and every word spoken (even whispered) into the microphones. The staff is very attentive and will use a second microphone for Q&A's and will ask audience members to wait to speak until a microphone is near their mouth. Listening devices are available for anyone who doesn't use a hearing aid or whose hearing aid doesn't include a telecoil. Signage in the Arlene Sitter auditorium is excellent. Signage is missing in the Behnke Center but is (I hear) forthcoming.
