GOLDEN YEARS SENIOR ACTIVITY CENTER

About GOLDEN YEARS SENIOR ACTIVITY CENTER

We are a nonprofit community-based organization that offers a daytime program dedicated to providing care to individuals age 18 or older, who by reason of mental or physical disability require care and supervision. We have the capacity to serve 36 clients at this time through licensure requirements with the Agency for Health Care Administration. Our program is planned and supervised by our Center Operator "Lilian Morejon" who has worked with the geriatric and adult population for years. Our program is designed to stimulate cognitive function in clients who desire to remain mentally sharp and for dementia clients to slow the progression of the disease. Early to mid-stage dementia clients will greatly benefit from the cognitive stimulation and social interaction; Adults with physical, social and/or emotional needs whose well-being is threatened by the effects of social isolation and or lack of attention to their various needs; Adults cared for by families or friends whose participation in Adult Day Services may relieve families of 24-hour responsibility, thus providing respite for caregivers; Persons who reside in our local communities whose disabilities and level of functioning are such that, without intervention, institutional placement would likely occur; Individuals who are chronically ill or disabled and who can benefit from supportive services to maintain independence; Hospital and nursing home residents who are able to return to the community with day supervision and assistance; Residents in Assistive Living who enjoy additional social and recreational activities.
