Are Apartments Furnished or Unfurnished?

It means you get to bring the pieces you love and create a space that feels familiar right away. Life at Evergreen is all about feeling at home, and your apartment should reflect you.
Plus, new residents receive a $1,000 furniture credit through our partnership with Short Furniture, helping make move-in even easier.
Do You Offer Help with Medications?
Yes, absolutely — and we’re proud of how thoughtfully we do it.
Medication support is available to help residents stay safe, consistent, and confident each day. It takes the stress out of managing medications and brings families real peace of mind. It’s one of those supports that quietly makes a big difference every single day.
We proudly partner with Green Tree Pharmacy to ensure accurate, reliable service and smooth coordination.

It’s all about staying active, connected, and independent without worrying about driving.
Are Pets Allowed?
Yes — pets are absolutely welcome here!
We know how special animal companions can be, and we love seeing them around Evergreen.
As long as pets are well cared for by the resident or family, they’re welcome to join the fun. A little extra tail wagging or purring just makes life sweeter!
Can Family Members Visit and be Involved in Care Decisions?
