Adult Day Services
We are entitled to health and wellness regardless of age or ability. Yet, achieving both can be difficult when navigating fractured health services that fail to meet the needs of the whole person.
Adult Day Services focuses on both health and wellness, benefitting participants and their family caregivers
What is Adult Day Services?
Adult Day Services support older adults and people with disabilities to help them maintain independence while experiencing meaningful connections, a sense of belonging and an enhanced quality of life.
Serve People, Support Caregivers
Adult Day Services enrich the lives of older adults, people with disabilities, and those who need assistance managing chronic conditions. Family caregivers also benefit from Adult Day Services, where they are connected to resources, provided support and given a break from demanding caregiving responsibilities.
Maintain Independence
Adult Day Services serve the whole person, merging physical and emotional health needs to help individuals maintain their independence and remain in their homes, connected to their families and communities.
High Value, Affordable Services
The most cost-effective option for older adults and people with disabilities, Adult Day Services cost substantially less than home care, assisted living or nursing home care. Program fees vary; some participants may be eligible for financial assistance through Medicaid, Department of Veteran’s Affairs and Long-Term Care Insurance.
The Benefits of Relationship-Based Care
In the world of what can feel like impersonal health care systems, Adult Day Services staff work in partnership with program participants and their family caregivers to deliver relationship-based care that helps:
- Promote independence
- Manage chronic conditions
- Reduce social isolation
- Foster peer interaction
- Strengthen relationships
- Reduce hospital readmissions
- Navigate the complex health care system, connecting participants and family caregivers to resources and support
- Provide support for family caregivers
