Evergreen Court Retirement Homes

Kathleen

My mother will be moving into Evergreen Court Retirement Homes. They have something called transitional. It's closer to independent living, but it can be changed at any time when there's other care that's needed. My mother is kind of on the border. She needed the help that she can get from a senior community. For example, she needed help with cooking, cleaning, and stuff like that, but she doesn't need anyone to help her with pills, to move around, or dress her. We didn't really need all of that right now, so she's in transitional. Evergreen Court is the only one I found like that, which is mainly the reason why we chose it. It's an older facility. You wouldn't put it in the luxury category, although it's really quite nice. The interesting difference is that the apartments are huge. A one-bedroom apartment is about 650 square feet, which is larger than anything we saw anywhere else for much more money. I liked everything about it. It's a huge value for money. There's nothing like it in the Bellevue area, where money is an issue. They even have low-income rent reduction. Certainly, no one else does that. The people that I saw and the interactions I saw looked really good. The people who live there seemed well cared for and comfortable, but there's not that much you can say after a couple of visits. They only have a limited number of activities right now because of the COVID virus, but they had activities comparable with the other places. I'm extremely lucky to have had that as an option. If you're looking for value for money and a place where you'd be very comfortable putting your parent (especially when they are not rich like a lot of people around here), you couldn't do better than Evergreen Court. It was hands down better than anyone. The apartments were older, but they seemed well cared for.

My aunt moved in at Evergreen Court for about three weeks. Her bedroom is very spacious and nice, and there is a spacious bathroom. There are still things to be done in the apartment that they haven’t gotten to yet like a lock on the door. It was broken, and they haven’t fixed it. The staff is very nice.

I did visit Evergreen Court, and I like it, but the money was too much. The rooms were big enough. The people that I saw were fine and friendly. They told me that they provide three meals. They also have a community room where they get together and do things.

What I really like about Evergreen Court is they will take my three dogs. They serve three meals a day, and the problem with it is that it is in more of an industrial area. The rooms seemed to be spacious, clean, and they do well for the light housekeeping and linen service. I haven’t been all over, but when I walked down the hallway and into the rooms that I’m interested in, then I knew that they have really done a lot of work as far as getting the room ready. They don’t have balconies, but they have wide places to go through.

My husband and I visited Evergreen Court. It was a lovely facility. It was nicer and prettier, a better building, and a great lady took us on a tour. It had so much going on there. They had a library, a dining room, a lovely courtyard, and a big laundry room. There was a big meeting place as you walk in, or people would just sit around and chat. It was very well kept up and very cheerful. They have the usual activities, like bingo, but they take people out on picnics every week to concerts, shopping, field trips, and all kinds of stuff outside the facility. They have fun stuff to do, and then they have church services and pastors come in and hold Bible studies. The people were nice and the prices were reasonable.

Evergreen Court is a locally owned senior living community. They have 60 apartments in the community. They have an assisted living, which is less expensive than at the other communities I visited. I once visited a friend who lived there. It's a very good facility. It was well run, and the price was reasonable. My friend was happy living there.
