Benefits of Attendance
One of our attendees was in a tragic accident, causing his decline in safe decision-making and ability to perform daily tasks. No longer able to hold a job, and a wife exhausted of finances and resources, they came to us. He went from a recluse, feeling rejected by society, to a vibrant attendee, loving the exercise and socialization and new tools provided to help him increase his abilities. We serve military veterans who sustained PTSD and traumatic brain injuries to elderly women who have been shut away due to physical limitations and are no longer able to drive.
Benefits include improved health and nutrition:
- We provide 1 daily meal and are able to accommodate a wide range of dietary requirements and textures plus we serve snacks in between. We encourage healthier eating habits.
- Mental health is stimulated with “thinking” games and activities.
- Mild daily exercises improve strength, mobility, and dexterity which helps prevent increased disability from inactivity.
- Full-time nursing oversight and nursing management
Support and friendship benefits are a huge part of our programming for the majority of our attendees, most of whom have lost the ability to drive and independently travel. If you attend a session you’ll see jokesters, hugs, dancing, bean bag tossing, fine motor skills arts and crafts, and new friendships developing.
Caregivers are frequently exhausted and we provide a respite for 4-8 hours. Our goal is to enhance your life and loved ones too.
