Maria WufengCommunity Adult Daycare For Disabled People

• Goals

      An adult with a disability who lives at home with family members might be unable to care for themselves if left along during the day, so having the benefits that comes with an adult day center are crucial. So, not only do these centers benefit the adults who have disabilities, but it also allows their caregivers to work outside the home during the day and still care for their loved ones after the work day is done.

      According to individual needs, personalized service plan is designed including living support. Nice areas, living activity, community activity, life learning activity or day-time activity, health, safety activity, social activity, protection, right promotion activity, special medication, and behavior support, are considered into individualized service plan.

      Adult day care facilities provide disabled clients the opportunity to socialize with other like-minded individuals and get peer support. When adults with disabilities come to our adult daycare facility, they will get the chance to make friends and participate in social activities everyday.
