In terms of medical and personal care, Evergreen Health Center offers 24/7 nursing support, including assistance with daily living activities such as incontinence care and ambulatory support for those who require help moving around or transferring. The facility’s staff are trained to support residents managing chronic conditions such as diabetes, including blood glucose monitoring and medication assistance as prescribed. Reviews highlight that staff members often display attentiveness and responsiveness, with several families reporting positive experiences regarding communication, safety, and individualized care for loved ones, particularly for those living in independent or memory care units.
However, some reviews point to challenges regarding staffing levels, noting that aides can be stretched thin during busy periods. This can result in longer wait times for assistance, especially for residents with complex needs such as incontinence or specialized diabetic care in skilled nursing units. While many describe the staff as compassionate and committed, there are concerns about delays and inconsistent medical attention related to staffing ratios. Families who value a diverse range of amenities and a continuum of care often express satisfaction, whereas those requiring immediate, hands-on support may experience occasional lapses in timely care. As of mid-2024, no major renovations or expansions have been announced for the facility.
