Pre-registration is requested by calling 978-922-7018, ext. 1304. Area residents are invited to learn about specific programs located throughout the North Shore and what makes each one distinctive. Adult day health programs are unique and have an exclusive place in the continuum of community-based long term care. They provide frail elders with supportive daytime environments designed to promote their health and independence. The programs are preventative, with essential coordinators of care on-site, providing a critical source of support to families struggling to care for their loved one. This panel discussion will provide guests with valuable information resource information.
