The Dearness Adult Day Program & Wellness Centre offers a welcoming, client-centered program designed to support and engage individuals who may need assistance with physical frailty, disability or chronic illness. Many clients of the Dearness Adult Day Program live with caregivers who are working, others with caregivers who need some relief or live independently but enjoy an opportunity to socialize and participate in activities such as:
- Specialized therapies such as pet, music and art
- Exercise programs
- Discussion groups and trivia programs
- Tabletop and floor games
- Board games, cards and seasonal crafts
- Music entertainment and theme days
- Education programs with special guests
- Food programs and baking
- Computer, iPad and tablet training
Organized by qualified staff and assisted by our registered volunteers, the Dearness Adult Day Program is open Monday to Friday. The program fee includes assistance with personal care, all recreational programming and a three course meal lunch. Transportation may be available to and from the program for an additional fee. Supplemental services such as whirlpool bath and non-diabetic foot care can also be accessed at the program. The Dearness Home Adult Day Program is a smoke-free and scent-free environment.
