Review from Linda I (Sister of Resident) published on 8 July 2025 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
A very nice visit ,accompanied by my youngest son,over from New Zealand,on June 28 th 2025,to see my brother who suffers with Parkinson's disease.
The home was clean,bright,smelt fresh and nicely decorated.A polite and friendly welcome from a carer who I had spoken to by phone several times.
I met other staff members who were all very professional,in the fact that they were well versed on my brothers condition and his needs,but not patronising.
All staff were polite,kind and helpful.
We were offered cups of tea and a seat in the lovely garden.
The home had pushed to get my brother a new,state of the art wheelchair which has made a huge difference to his well being and gives him a degree of mobility and independence.
His room was very clean overlooking the garden and well equipped for his needs.
He,and the other residents that I met seemed well and cheerful.
I am satisfied that Evergreen House is providing an excellent level of care.

- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
