They are doing great things for my grandmother. She likes her newly remodeled suite and is getting much better care there, then she did in the past. She loves the activities, staff and her "friends."

If a lower star could be given it would be after a recent made to my grandfather who has moved in to Evans [date removed] the place is disgusting. The facility is in disarray bugs galore and filth. We will be contacting the state for the issues and hope to see this facility corrected or shut down. If you have loved ones here check on them and think twice about this facility.

This center, honestly, was horrible. I'm not even sure how somebody could put a family member in here. Also, the rates were comparable to those of other retirement communities that had amenities galore. This place had nothing to offer.

Could Use Some Updating
This community appeared a little older than the others we had toured. I felt that it could use some updating in the appearance of the building. The rooms we saw were small and my parents would have had to share a bathroom and I felt that would be an issue for my parents. The staff was nice and helpful but it just wasn't the right place for my parents.

Not as expected
There have been several issues with Evans Retirement Center and I have to "pick my battles." I found out they were not giving him a shower. I ended up giving him a shower, which I found out I wasn't supposed to do. They told me they have a schedule for bathing now.

What a nightmare!
This place is despicable, disgusting and just plain nasty. [Removed]. The conditions here were so bad. It was smelly and dirty and just plain ridiculous. It had one bathroom for multiple people and that was nasty. I was horrified to even continue the tour.

My top choice!
I will keep this community in mind to this day. It was a very nice place but my mother needed a higher level of care. It is definitely a great choice for anyone looking for assisted living.

My visit!
This community is a little older than some of them we looked at. The community had a slight scent to it and I am not sure if it was because it was older that it may have had this. It seemed like they tried to keep it clean. The staff were nice.

Good Transition for My Mother in Law
This was a really good move for my mother in law. It was a good transition, and we are pleased with her move to this community. She is doing very well. They are caring for her very well. It has been good experience with the staff. They have been kind and accommodating. The owner of the community is always available. They have nice activities for residents. She enjoys a few of the activities offered. The meals are good. This is a smaller community, and it is family owned. This is a community I would recommend.

Nice place
We only used Evans Retirement Center for a brief time, we ended up needing to find something closer to home, but they did a good job during the time that we used them. It was a nice looking place, and the staff were all friendly and professional.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Pennsylvania regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Pennsylvania regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored Evans Retirement Center 1 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score.
