Evergreen Adult Family Homes sits at 11339 8th Ave NE in Seattle, Washington, and has cared for seniors since 1997 in a small, family-owned setting that feels like home. This residential care home's got 12 licensed beds and welcomes up to 6 residents at a time, with studio units, one-bedroom suites, and shared apartments all internet, phone, and cable ready so folks can keep up with family or friends if they want. There are four private bedrooms, one shared bedroom, three private bathrooms, and three shared bathrooms, and people can pick what works best for them and their needs. The place is part of Evergreen Court West and offers both assisted living and memory care, plus board and care levels, with staff around all day and night. Caregivers know how to help with daily activities-like bathing, moving around, eating, and getting dressed-and they know a lot about dementia and Alzheimer's care. The staff's organized, kind, and always ready to welcome visitors, and having staff with Canadian Medical Doctor licenses who speak English and specialize in geriatrics and psychiatry-even in areas like addiction, forensic psychiatry, and sleep medicine-means care is pretty well thought out for a broad range of needs.
Residents can get help with medication, special diets, and nursing care, and there's a dietitian on staff who makes sure people get what they need. There's incontinence care, wound care, and rehabilitation available, and if someone just needs a short stay, respite care helps families who need a break. Evergreen Adult Family Homes gives peace of mind to families with 24-hour secured premises and attentive caregivers. People can enjoy a café, a private dining room, and all-day snacks if they get hungry between meals, along with a fitness section, gardening area, arts and crafts studio, hair salon, a games room, and on-site parking. There's also a deck for sitting outside when the sun's out, transportation services for outings and appointments, and bathroom reminders for those who forget sometimes. The community has independent living options for folks who don't want to fuss over chores or maintenance, and skilled nursing as medical needs increase. They offer memory care with secure environments and activities to help exercise memory, and they help residents who need feeding, moving, or help with personal hygiene.
Evergreen is licensed as an Adult Family Home (Non-medicaid) in Seattle, with certification under #653300 and #664100, and surveys get handled by the local Department of Aging or Veteran's Services.
