Elder Day Stay
Elder Day Stay is a professionally licensed and managed facility designed for older adults who require constant supervision due to their physical or cognitive limitations. It offers structured care from 8:00am-5:30pm every weekday in a warm environment staffed by certified employees with years of experience serving this unique population. Activities are scheduled every day to engage the participants, while ensuring their comfort and safety. Elder Day Stay provides caregivers and families the customized assistance they need to keep their loved one at home rather than face long-term care placement. EDS is centrally located in separate facility from our main office, providing a more convenient location in the Lake Ella Shopping Plaza.

Testimonial
“The last couple of days have been a combination of rough and incredibly rich. My mom has moved from very lucid and introspective moments to frightening episodes of confusion almost back to back. I have felt very fortunate that my mom has kept her incredible, feisty personality through all of this period of her life. I feel extremely grateful that her lucid moments have reminded me of the protective "mama bear" mother that I knew for most of my life. She always put her family's needs first and that has surfaced so many times, even as she faces great challenges to her own world.
I don't think that you could possibly know how much pleasure I got seeing how happy Elder Day Stay made her. She was truly herself around all of you and that is the greatest compliment and indication of her deep comfort, joy and security. I can never thank you enough for your generous hearts, your humor, your respect and your kindness. Much love and many, many blessings to you all.”
