Evergreen Manor

Evergreen Manor is a small senior living community in Necedah, Wisconsin, with 15 beds in a family-based setting, and folks call it a Community-Based Residential Facility, or CBRF, because it looks out for people who need support but still want to live as independently as possible, and when you look at it, it's about 23.7 miles outside Tomah, so it's not right in town but close enough to shops, churches, and healthcare. The main care type here is Assisted Living, and Evergreen Manor also has independent living and memory care services, which means people who have memory problems get extra help too. Most residents have their own studio room or living space, and some places include kitchenettes, so people can keep a bit of their routine from home, but everyone gets help with bathing, dressing, medication, and getting around, and if someone uses a wheelchair or can't walk, that's taken care of. The staff coordinate with doctors and provide all-day supervision when needed, and there's an emergency alert system for safety, with meals prepared for everyone, including special diets for folks who need diabetic or allergy-sensitive food, and regular scheduled meals or all-day dining if someone gets hungry at odd hours. Evergreen Manor helps with housekeeping and laundry, and there are walk paths, a garden, transportation, parking, movie nights, and activities planned by the community, so people stay busy and connected with others. The building and staff offer food preparation, shopping trips, money management, skills development, and education geared toward what each resident can do, and the goal is to make sure people can keep doing as much as they can on their own. There are other Evergreen facilities nearby, like Evergreen Pines, Evergreen Home of Berlin, Hidden Pines, and Arbor Pines in Wautoma or Whistling Pines in Waupaca, and sometimes folks mention Evergreen Manor II and Evergreen Manor III, because the name's spread out to more than one building. The estimated cost for assisted living is about $3,465 per month, and the place has an average community rating of 9.6 out of 10, which is the highest in town, though no detailed reviews are listed, but overall, Evergreen Manor gives a supportive, smaller environment with many services that help older adults keep their independence as long as possible.
