- Gentle exercise, movement, and stretching
- Educational classes and presentations
- Support groups and health-focused informational sessions

Healthy Meals and Snacks
We serve a delicious, well-balanced hot lunch and morning and afternoon snacks each day. Meals are prepared to be nutritious and satisfying, and the program can accommodate common dietary restrictions when arranged in advance. Snacks and beverages are available throughout the day to keep participants comfortable and hydrated.
Sharing meals is also an important part of the program’s social time, giving participants a chance to connect with their peers.
Care and Supervision
Trained staff supervise participants throughout the day and assist when needed. Support may include:
- Medication reminders
- Cuing daily living tasks as needed
- Assistance with daily routines
- Monitoring participant well-being
- Encouraging social interaction and engagement
We create tailored care plans for each individual. With home health aides and personal care assistants on site, we support seniors with patience, dignity, and respect for independence.
Benefits for Caregivers
For many, the challenges of caring for an elderly family member are simply part of daily life. Caregiving, however, is a demanding job, and taking a break can be a positive step for both the caregiver and their loved one.
Adult day programs give family caregivers dependable coverage for a day or a half-day, while their loved one remains engaged in a supportive environment. Caregivers can focus on work with peace of mind, or take a respite to go grocery shopping, run errands, or care for themselves.
