Each program day provides a structured sequence of activities designed to meet the needs, preferences, and abilities of older adults in need of assistance with two or more "activities of daily living". Elders eligible for Center services may enroll for regular two or three day-per-week participation, based on assessments completed during the application process. Occasional "respite" care is also available to pre-registered individuals on a stand-by basis. |
