Key Review Excerpts
“The staff treat her like family and are very supportive of her needs especially in times of crisis. Since she's needed more care, the Evergreen Inn has been the best place for her to live.”
“The activity director makes sure there are lots of choices for residents to participate in; such as bowling, swimming, lunch in the park, crafts, games, movies, shopping in the community and weekly trips to the library.”
“It doesn't feel like an institution, as residents are free to leave and live close to a normal life.”
