Elderday Center celebrates 25th anniversary with open house

Elderday Center in Batavia invites you to a 25th anniversary open house to celebrate its clients, community, sponsors, and partners.

Come and see the improvements made possible through the generous donations and enjoy some tasty hors d'oeuvres while touring the redesigned spaces.

The open house will be from 4 to 7 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 11, at the center, 328 W. Wilson St.

Tours of the facility will be available throughout the event. There will also be presentations by some of the therapy program participants modeling their services, including pet and music therapy. The goal is to increase awareness of Elderday Center in the Tri-Cities area, to highlight the services available for community seniors, and to celebrate 25 years of service.

ABOUT ELDERDAY CENTER

Celebrating 25 years this year, 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 wide variety of services and activities in which clients can participate: daily exercise, seated yoga, field trips, intergenerational activities, games, crafts, special entertainment, lively discussions of current events, music and pet therapy, a hot lunch and two nutritious snacks, daily nurse monitoring, professional case management, and much, much more. 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.
