Open Mike June 1, 2015
St. Ann’s Adult Day Services is celebrating 25 years of caring for the Rochester Community! For the past quarter-century our mission has been to offer adults a safe place to go during the day to help them maintain their independence and be there for caregivers so they can work worry- free or offer them some much needed respite. Through the years we have helped many families and helped many people stay safe in their homes longer, happier and healthier.
Our participants benefit not only from the safety, support and health services we provide but also from activities, educational programs and exercise. On our three campuses we offer medical models like Home Connection and Social Models like Home and Heart. Our participants have a variety of daily needs; we can help those with more complex medical needs and can also provide care for those with cognitive loss and memory issues. Our caring staff assists with medications and helps with daily activities; like bathing and dressing. We also provide a community of family and friendships; we have activities and companionship throughout the day. For our participants who have caregiving families who work, we relieve stress and give peace of mind or offer respite to those caring for loved ones who have health care needs throughout the day. Many of our participants are covered by Medicaid Long Term Care Insurances, Veteran’s Benefits and others pay an affordable daily rate. We offer additional services like transportation, so getting to and from us isn’t yet another item on the to-do list and we even offer help getting to medical appointments during the day. We also provide meals and snacks while you are with us and our caring staff even wants to be sure you have access to a healthy dinner when you get home.
I am extremely proud of the services we offer to Rochester through our Home Connection and Home and Heart Programs. I hope you will join us in celebrating this milestone and enjoy a complimentary day to try us out or come to one of our upcoming open houses.
