Open House Success!

Parker James — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 13:22:42 +0000

The staff and residents at Evergreen Place would like to thank the community and especially those that participated for making this year’s open house such a great success. On both Friday and Saturday, we had multiple tours taking place for much of the time. Many people had the opportunity to see what Evergreen Place has to offer the community– in the spirit of the ‘non-profit’ and caring environment that has been provided since 1904.

To show our appreciation to the folks that came for a visit, we conducted a raffle for door prizes each day and will be delivering those in the next few days.

We would also like to thank the staff and employees of Evergreen Place for doing such a great job both preparing for the Open House and helping out with the work of serving, hosting and conducting tours.

Thank you all very much. Everyone did a great job in helping to make our Open House a success.

We look forward to next year.

Annual Open House

Well, its almost that time again! Last year we had a fabulous turn out for both days, so if you are a healthcare professional or a citizen interested in ‘assisted living’, perhaps it’s not too early to add this to your calendar.

We are fast filling up our vacant rooms, since all of the changes. Come and find out why folks have chosen ‘Evergreen Place’ to live.

We invite you to visit us– enjoy a selection of food and beverages and check out the remodeling and redecorating that we have done.

You might get lucky and win a door prize, too! You can’t beat that.

Improvements at Evergreen Place

Parker James — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 15:55:36 +0000

We have been very busy over here at Evergreen Place with new residents, new staff and additional employees as we adjust to our recent growing stage. We have been pleased while conducting tours, to hear folks say–”there are so many smiling happy people here”. Hearing that phrase repeatedly is very gratifying.

Yes–we have a happy bunch!

We have also been very busy in this last year with facility improvements and remodeling and I wanted to share a few of those things.

A beautiful new awning has been installed at the visitor/nurse entrance, which is on the Ash Street side of the building. It is green, as you can imagine, and has our logo imprinted on it.

The remodeling on the ground floor has resulted in many compliments and that project is continuing to include additional areas on the ground floor.

We have beautiful new carpet in the hallway of the first floor and have more on order!

Yes, we are always looking to make improvements here at Evergreen Place; both to the facility and the care that we provide for the residents.

Please come and pay us a visit.

Evergreen Place Resident Art Exhibit

Parker James — Fri, 01 Jul 2011 13:45:02 +0000

Creativity unlocked at Evergreen Place!

What a wonderful thing it is to see our residents enjoy doing such great art under the guidance of June Latti, therapeutic artist. June has been working with our residents for some time now and each time she does, it seems both the participation and results are more impressive. It isn’t difficult to see how much the Evergreen Place family enjoys this program.

See for yourself in this selection from the latest session. We will continue to display this great art all over our facility–with pride and admiration of such talent coming to light.

Congratulations to our residents and to June for doing such a great job.

Flag Historians Visit Evergreen Place

Yes, and what a great presentation!

Mr. Roger Clark and Mr. Howard Moulton are very much informed regarding the history of our American flag and all of the many flag designs that have flown over this nation and its battlefields. From the first to the current flags, the staff and residents had the wonderful opportunity to learn how they came about, along with some very interesting trivia regarding the lives and times of those involved.

Thank you Mr. Clark and Mr. Moulton for taking the time to present such an enriching program!

Please enjoy these pictures.

Evergreen Place is Exhibiting at the 2011 NH Conference on Aging

We are pleased to announce our participation as an exhibitor at the 2011 New Hampshire Conference on Aging. This year’s conference is scheduled to be held on May 26^th from 8:30 am – 3:30 pm at the Radisson Hotel in Manchester, NH.

May is Older Americans Month, a time to honor the legacies and ongoing contributions of older Americans and support them as they enter the next stage in life. “As the most rapidly growing segment of today’s population, seniors are a demographic group which merits the attention of all concerned organizations and citizens. “Our organization is pleased to be able to support the seniors of our community in this way. It provides an excellent environment for fostering positive healthy aging.”

The Eleventh Annual NH Conference on Aging theme is “Older Americans: Connecting the Community”. Over the past eleven years the NH Conference on Aging has grown from 200 to 750 in attendance. We look forward to meeting and serving the seniors at this event.

Parker James — Fri, 22 Apr 2011 14:14:47 +0000

Last Thursday in preparation for Beatles day, our activities staff and residents had a blast making tie dye T-shirts and socks! Everyone had more fun than you can imagine. The garments dried over night while all anticipated the coming day. Beatles’ Day at Evergreen Place!

Tie dye clothing, beads, peace signs, round rose colored glasses and Beatles music; both over the stereo and live with our very own Stew Aronson playing a host of favorite Beatles’ songs with voice and guitar.

I hope that you enjoy the show.
