Elderday Center specializes in dementia and age-related illness care. The specialized day program promotes cognitive stimulation and socialization, which can help slow the progression of dementia, minimize depression, and increase the overall quality of life.

As the only community-based, nonprofit adult day program in the Tri-Cities, Elderday Center uses evidenced-based techniques to engage senior citizens affected with these diagnoses.

The Elderday Center program offers a variety of services and activities in which clients can participate: daily exercise, seated yoga, field trips, intergenerational activities, games, crafts, special entertainment, discussions of current events, music and pet therapy, a hot lunch and two nutritious snacks, daily nurse monitoring and professional case management.

Elderday Center staff is committed to providing the highest quality of care for each and every senior in the program. The intention is to make a direct and meaningful impact on the quality of life for both clients and their caregivers every day.
