Evergreen Terrace sits in North Hills, California at 15857 Lassen Street and helps seniors live with comfort, dignity, and peace of mind in a small, home-like setting where there are six assisted living units, so everybody kind of gets to know each other and no one ever really feels lost in a crowd, and the staff, who are around day and night, help with things like dressing, bathing, getting to the bathroom, and eating-including spoon feeding or pureed meals when needed, and there are grab bars and lots of big closets for storage, which makes things easier and a little safer. Residents can expect tailored care plans that fit their needs, and Evergreen Terrace offers both assisted living and memory care, so folks with dementia or Alzheimer's have extra, secure supports and some structure to help with their days, which can really help everyone in the family relax a little. For those who want to keep moving, there's a fitness area and mobility help, and for those who like to keep their hands busy, they've got a steady stream of arts and crafts classes, plus gardens to walk in or balconies where people can just sit out for some fresh air.
Every day brings new ways for residents to stay entertained, from different games and activities to opportunities for friendship and conversation, plus there's massage therapy, a hair salon right on site, and maintenance help for the apartments, which feature considered touches like full security and private laundry service. Home-cooked meals, usually prepared with an eye on good nutrition and flavor, come one or two times a day, though residents can always ask for their food to be pureed if swallowing gets tough, and the staff will help with the rest, from medication reminders to health monitoring and support with independent tasks.
There's Wi-Fi for those who want to stay connected, transportation and parking when outings come up, and each resident gets a say in the kind of help they receive-which might include simple companionship or more in-depth personal care, depending on their needs. Evergreen Terrace holds a license as a board and care community, which means it offers both short-term help, like respite care, and longer-term support, including residential care, memory care, general healthcare, and even hospice. Programs focus on keeping everyone active and social, while still giving people privacy and independence. They don't accept Medicare unless they're certified for it, but they do provide a variety of services that meet many families' needs. Over the years, Evergreen Terrace has won recognition for quality care, daily activities, and the warm, personalized approach their well-trained staff offers to each resident.
