The (Adult Day Health Services) program provides my mother with the opportunity to socialize and participate in activities which add enrichment to her life.

- Client Family Member of Adult Day Services

When I first visited, I was impressed by the cleanliness of the building and the calming atmosphere present. That has not changed in three years. I am confident that my mother is in good hands when I need someone to take over Mom's care for a few hours.

My mother was a client of the Adult Day Health Services program for three years. During that time, the staff treated my mother with the utmost respect, compassion and care.
