Overview of Evergreen Fountains

Evergreen Fountains offers assisted living and independent living in Spokane Valley, WA, in the Veradale neighborhood. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication, while independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care. Having both care levels may be a good fit for someone whose needs may grow over time, because the resident can move to a different level without leaving the community.

Evergreen Fountains has 124 beds. Medicaid is accepted, giving a family whose savings may not cover a long stay a way to use that coverage toward care. Pets are allowed, so a resident can bring a pet when moving in. With a Walk Score of 31, the area is car-dependent, meaning most errands require a car or a ride, so a resident who no longer drives would need transportation for those trips.

Residents can use the pool, beauty salon, and wellness and fitness center on site for recreation, grooming, and exercise. An outdoor recreational park and walking trail provide space for outdoor activity, while scheduled transportation is available for trips that require a vehicle. Dining options include a spacious dining room and a private dining room, and activities include social events, card games, book club, and live music performances.
