Adult day care for seniors

Posted

LIBERTY, NY — Caregivers have a free opportunity to learn about adult day care programs available in Sullivan County on Thursday, September 10. Representatives from four area adult day care providers will share the mechanics of how these centers assist seniors and their caregivers.

The event is offered by Cornell Cooperative Extension Sullivan County (CCESC)’s Caregiver Resource Center. It will take place from 6 to 8 p.m. at the CCESC Gerald J. Skoda Extension Education Center, 64 Ferndale-Loomis Rd. A light meal will be provided by Sunshine Adult Day Care.

The goal of this event is to aid family members who may be considering this form of respite, which offers relief to busy caregivers by allowing them to go to work, handle personal business, or relax knowing their relative is well cared for and safe. Representatives will be present from Catskill Regional Medical Center, Roscoe Nursing Home, Sullivan County Adult Care Center and Sunshine Adult Day Care.

Pre-registration is requested by September 8. Email sullivan@cornell.edu.or call 845/292-6180.
