Evergreen Place Supportive Living Decatur provides Assisted Living and a dedicated Memory Care program. Licensed nurses coordinate with physicians to monitor chronic conditions, oversee medication administration, and arrange on-site lab work or therapy services when ordered. Caregivers are on duty 24/7 to help with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, grooming, transferring, and continence support. For residents living with dementia, the secure Memory Care area uses consistent staffing, structured routines, and evidence-based cognitive activities to reduce confusion and enhance safety. Emergency call systems and regular wellness checks are standard throughout the building.
Additional health-related services include scheduled transportation to medical appointments, coordination with outside hospice or home health agencies when necessary, and assistance arranging rehabilitation therapies like physical, occupational, or speech therapy. A visiting podiatrist, dentist, and audiologist make routine rounds, and pharmacy delivery is managed directly through the community’s electronic medication records. The staff also tracks specialized diets, fluid intake, and vital signs, communicating any changes promptly to family and physicians.
Residents choose from private or companion suites equipped with step-in showers, grab bars, individual climate controls, and basic cable. Select floor plans add kitchenettes or patio access, but not all accommodations have all the features. Weekly housekeeping, linen service, and maintenance are included, and laundry assistance is available for an additional fee. Small pets are welcome in certain units; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
Three nutritionally balanced meals are served daily in the main dining room, with menu choices that accommodate diabetic, low-sodium, and mechanical-soft diets. A registered dietitian reviews menus, and snacks are available at any time. Residents who prefer to dine privately can request meal delivery to their rooms, though this service may carry a nominal charge. Special holiday meals, themed dinners, and family events offer additional dining variety without compromising dietary guidelines.
