The Day Center
Designed to be a cost-effective alternative to home health services, nursing home and assisted living facilities, Evergreen's state-of-the-art adult day health center offers a daytime program of nursing care, social services, nutritious meals and therapeutic activities for adults requiring assistance.
The specially trained staff at The Day Center of Evergreen Commons provide a safe, caring environment for our participants and relief for their caregivers during the day, enabling individuals to live at home and remain independent in their communities. We are dedicated to maintaining – and often improving – the functional levels of our participants to help make life more enjoyable for everyone involved.
