We offer a structured day program designed to keep our members active mentally, physically, and socially. We provide group activities, physical and mental exercises, a light breakfast, lunch, an afternoon snack, and incontinence care, all in a comfortable, home-like environment. Nursing services are provided for medication administration and ongoing health assesment. Additionally, personal hygiene and beautician services are available.
Furthermore, we understand the normal desire to be in a comfortable, home-like setting. With this in
mind, the Center provides our members with the comforts of home. Our activity
rooms are filled with comfortable couches and chairs and our dining room is open and
bright with tables arranged to seat four or five people, just like home. We provide
stimulating and supportive care in a comfortable, home-like environment.
What is adult day care?
Adult day care is a term that applies to a variety of programs offering services ranging from active rehabilitation to socialization and health related care. Adults who are unable to function at home without supervision or support are most likely to use adult day care. It covers the gap between the loosely structured activities of senior centers and full-time residential care or institutionalization in a Nursing Home. It is for anyone who cannot be safely left home by
themselves.
Why is adult day care an important service?
Adult Day Care can be the most important tool in preventing or delaying institutionalization. In a structural environment that promotes mental and physical exercise, combined with bathroom assistance, transferring assistance, bathing and nursing supervision, much is done to keep the
individual at home and to function as independently as possible. For the caregiver, adult day care is a service that liberates them from the daily challenges of caring for their loved one without sacrificing daily contact in the home. Adult Day Care is an excellent alternative to
institutionalization or being at home alone or with a sitter. It improves everyone’s quality of life at a fraction of the cost of a Nursing Home.
