Do you have a loved one living at home on their own who is frail and elderly? Are you or a family member supporting and caring for a loved one with a disability? Do you know someone living with Alzheimer’s?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you and/or your loved one may benefit from one of the Adult Day Programs offered across Erie St. Clair.
Adult Day Programs offer supervised recreational and social activities in a group setting. Making new friends and engaging in stimulating activities can help your loved one stay healthy and independent longer.
These programs (also known as respite programs) offer a much-needed break for caregivers.
