Participants at Adult Day Care play a balancing game. The objective is to get balls in the holes on a board. As the population of seniors continues to grow in Sampson County, the demand for adult day care services is also on the rise. Adult day care centers provide a vital service for families caring for elderly or disabled loved ones, offering respite, social interaction, and specialized care during the daytime hours, those who work in the service-oriented agency say. The center offers activities for participants with all kinds of care needs and from varying backgrounds.
For many families, providing full-time care for an elderly loved one can be a challenging and emotional responsibility. The center offers a structured, daily program, which include recreational activities, health monitoring, nutritious meals, and social interaction — all tailored to meet individual needs.
I come five days a week, and I most of all enjoy the activities and listening to music. We have our up days and our downs, but the amount of change that those who attend the program receive from when they arrive to just a few months later is often remarkable. It gives them their social life back, and they make great friends and begin to look for one another.
When they arrive, the attendees truly create strong bonds with one another. All interested parties would have to do is to stop by our facility and pick up an application form and return it.
The program currently has room for more adults. The staff hopes the program will be able to extend to its full capacity after hiring more employees. Facebook Instagram Twitter. Sampson Independent News, Obituaries, classifieds, and Sports.
