Our roots run deep.
Back in 1982, Nancy Webre and her husband John laid the foundation for Oregon’s first in-home care agency. As CEO, Nancy’s education and training in gerontology and experience in senior care has helped Evergreen’s commitment to caregiving grow stronger and deeper through the years.
Today our “family tree” contains 55 dedicated employees in the tri-county area, many of whom have been with us for ten years or more. We take great pride in our caregiver loyalty and longevity. We understand that good care begins with good staff.
It is of utmost importance our caregivers meet the highest standards of professionalism, integrity and experience. For your peace of mind, we commit to 24-hour a day access to our management, bonded and insured staff, and caregivers who are genuinely committed to providing excellent service. We expect reliability and respect from those who represent Evergreen.
All of our staff have been professionally interviewed and must complete a thorough screening process, which includes:
- National criminal background check
- Motor vehicle records check
- 5-point drug screening
- Professional & personal reference reviews
- Extensive interview process with Evergreen’s CEO and administrative staff
- Current Oregon driver’s license and proof of vehicle insurance
- Competency evaluation & training
Prior to being placed in the home with a client all employees are required to complete a thorough orientation and training program. During this process, we take the time to get to know our caregivers. We want to know about their skills, goals, and strengths related to caregiving. We take special care in finding the perfect match between each client and caregiver. We encourage clients to meet and interview your caregivers before services begin to ensure peace of mind and complete satisfaction.
