Evergreen Health Care Center

Sandy Pellegrini and Joe Frederick

Our mother is currently a patient at Evergreen Health Care Center in Stafford Connecticut. The care she has been receiving is outstanding from PT, OT, and Speech along with the Nursing Staff on the second floor which has allowed us the comfort of knowing all of her needs are being met with compassion and professionalism. Brenda, the Nursing Director is available to answer are questions and concerns without a formal appointment and just makes us feel as if we are one big family. Evergreen was our...

We chose Evergreen Health Care Center for my mother-in-law, and we're very happy with it. The staff is very good, and they answered all our questions. They have a gazebo in the little courtyard with flowers, benches, and chairs. The community was fine, I just don't like the size of the rooms. They can't bring their own personal stuff in because there's just no room, but the food was good.

profit instead of care

I have noticed a decline in the care here. When you walk in on a weekend you see very few CNA's. The patients have to wait over 1/2 hr or longer to be changed.

I went to visit my grandmother several times and found her sitting there without her glasses or hearing aides. As she mentally decli...

I had my mom in this facility for long term due to dementia and this was one of many homes that I had her in and I have to say it was the BEST experience and caring place I have been to. She was always out of bed, dressed and ready to start her day. She always had a variety of food and always went to recreation activities even though she did not participate they always had her there. Unfortunately my mom passed away due to natural causes recently but I wanted to share my experience... Wonderful...

My husband is in rehabilitation in Stafford Springs called Evergreen Health Care Center. This particular nursing facility is absolutely wonderful. He has been in seven or nine facilities, and this is the best by far. It is right on the grounds of the hospital. It is sort of a hidden secret because not too many people know about it. We have other facilities that are closer to us, but this is an extremely pleasant surprise. The food is wonderful, the people, the facility itself -- I can't say enou...
