The Evergreens Foundation Admission Process
Lodge admissions are determined in accordance with the Alberta Housing Act & Regulations and The Evergreens Foundation eligibility criteria as approved by its Board of Directors.

Lodge applicants must meet citizenship, residency, age, health, financial and functional independence requirements.

A prospective resident must complete and submit the following Admissions Forms Package to the Lodge Manager of the facility to which they are applying.

Resident selection is based upon the needs and rating criteria as established by Alberta Seniors & Community Supports. Applicants with the greatest need and who are able to function with basic supports are given priority. A summary of factors used for evaluating candidates include Risk Factors, Degree of Independence, Housing Need, Income Level and Special Circumstances.  Those with high health care needs may be directed towards housing which offers 24-hour nursing care.

Applications are processed in a timely fashion and prioritized by a “point scoring” system. Approval rests with the CAO; any under age applications are approved by the Board of Directors.
