BASIC CARE

Our Director of Housing and our Senior Living Consultant are best suited to answer your questions about a possible move, availability of apartments, and how the entire moving process works. Please call our main number 701-239-4524 and a representative will direct your call. 

A lead care expert will meet with you and family members to design a care plan based on individual needs. We work closely with families, physicians, therapists, and other care professionals to provide the best continuity of care. Our team approach to care relies on open communication to bring all disciplines together to develop the best possible outcomes for the health and well-being of our residents. 

They are similar but not the same. Our basic care community offers residents all-inclusive pricing for a private apartment home, private bathroom, meal plan, and a customized care plan with regularly scheduled visits from an onsite expert care team. Whereas an assisted living community commonly charges for resident-selected care services separately from rent in an a la carte pricing structure. 

They are different in amenities, services and level of independence manageable by the resident. Our basic care community offers residents all-inclusive pricing for a private apartment home, private bathroom, meal plan, and a customized care plan with regularly scheduled visits from an onsite expert care team. For individuals with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, our memory care community offers all-inclusive pricing for a private room in a safe and secured environment supervised 24/7 by experts in dementia care. 

They refer to two different kinds of senior living housing and services. What many people call a nursing home or a skilled nursing home, is what Ecumen calls long-term care. Long-term care is for individuals who require 24-hour skilled nursing care. Evergreens of Fargo does not offer long-term care services. Our basic care community, like assisted living, offers active residents a private apartment home with private bathroom, meal plan, and a customized care plan but for an all-inclusive price. 

When a loved one needs more continuous care than Home Care services can provide, our basic care community is a great option for them (and their family) because of the peace of mind that comes with a safe environment, a customized care plan and regularly scheduled visits from an onsite expert care team.
