Eldergarden is an Older Adult Day Service program, which offers a community based alternative to long term care placement and in a more cost effective manner.  Eldergarden is designed to improve the quality of life of individuals with functional impairments.  There are many benefits to a day services program; specifically, the program allows individuals to remain in their own homes and provides relief for caregivers.

There are three main components of our day program:

  • Quality personal care in a safe, supportive environment
  • Therapeutic recreational activities
  • Socialization and stimulation

  

Services are provided with dignity and respect in a caring, stimulating environment.
