Our State regulations change so frequently, so please ask for an updated version of what current requirements are. We are currently required to receive confirmation of COVID vaccination or exemption for all employees, vendors and volunteers at this time.
Frequently Asked Questions
We get commonly asked questions when an individual is highly interested in moving in. We hope this page can provide you with some answers!
Are meals included?
If you attend the morning program you receive lunch, if you attend the afternoon program, dinner is provided, and snacks in between.

How do I cover the costs of attending the day program?
We are a dedicated affordable senior care Provider and can point you in funding sources – from Veteran’s funding to State-Medicaid funding, we can work with your unique resources or help you find the right financial path to pay for your services. Call us and we can walk you through the process. Here is our current rate sheet, subject to change without notice.
How are medications distributed?
We need prescriptions from doctors even for over-the-counter medications like eye drops. Annoying for families but a regulatory requirement for us. Always bring medications in original pill bottles, not a day-of-the-week planner.
What is the smoking policy?
We are a non-smoking facility, we ask you refrain from smoking while in our program.
Nursing services
We can administer insulin injections, manage feeding tubes, provide basic wound care, and accommodate pureed diets plus much, much more.
Secured setting for exit-seekers
We are not a secured setting and not equipped for actively wandering/exit seeking individuals. If the individual is unable to be re-directed and unable to participate, we will refer you to a more appropriate setting.
Adult Day Care Vs Adult Day Health
“Adult Day Care” is just that – drop a loved one off for group activities. Day Health is a Level 2 Care with us where a Physical Therapist or Occupational Therapist completes an evaluation, makes a care plan, and then daily our Restorative Aides work one-on-one with the client on the care plan to achieve the goals.
