The Evergreens

The Evergreens sits in Moorestown and has a variety of living options for older adults, so people can choose independent living, assisted living, memory care, or skilled nursing care, depending on what they need now or in the future, and the place does have residential apartments for those who don't need any help, plus assisted living suites for folks who need some support with daily tasks, and they also have skilled care beds when someone requires more complex attention. The caregiving staff are known for being welcoming, responsive, attentive, and compassionate, and there's a strong focus on making sure residents feel comfortable and cared for. The whole community is structured as a continuing care retirement community (CCRC), which means people can move between different levels of care without having to move out, and the contract structure is meant to help with the transition through those stages, though there is mention of an entrance fee, but exact details about that aren't all spelled out. The Evergreens has special health services like adult day care centers, personal care homes, and rehabilitation therapy, so folks can stay active and healthy if they wish, while there's also respite care for short-term help. The community has a Medicare 5-star rating, which is rare in New Jersey, with only one other like it, and that rating covers the skilled care beds, which is a sign of quality for those parts of the campus. Amenities are built for safety and comfort, from rooms with emergency call systems to spaces made for easy mobility, and the retirement setting offers things geared toward a gracious, low-stress kind of life. Memory care is an important part of what's available, so people living with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia can get care in dedicated units with staff ready to help with those unique needs, and those memory care units have their own specific names and programs. There's a wide range of activities and social spaces to keep residents engaged, and the goal is for people to feel at home whether they're mostly independent or need a lot of help. They offer personalized support with activities of daily living and skilled nursing for those who require a higher level of care. Seniors over 55 who are still independent but want future planning have options here, and the community is set up so residents can get more help when their care needs change.
