We have openings! Our social day program serves the needs of caregivers and their loved ones dealing with mild to moderate memory loss due to cognitive diseases. We offer activities and socialization opportunities outside the home in an interactive and multi- generational setting. We provide a safe and stimulating environment for our clients while their caregivers tend to other needs. This intergenerational respite program connects trained college students with older adults to enrich the lives of all involved.
SUNY Geneseo Student volunteers gain valuable experience by learning to engage one-on-one in a compassionate and meaningful way. This allows caregivers a much-needed break along with the assurance that their loved one is in a welcoming and safe environment.
A therapy dog joins us occasionally and there are plenty of daily activities for all to enjoy, including:
• Chair Exercises
• Arts and Crafts
• Games and Puzzles
• Cooking Projects
• Special celebrations and events
No cost to attend. The program is sponsored by:
• Livingston County Office for Aging
• NYS Caregiving & Respite Coalition
• Noyes Caregiver Resource Center
Quotes from former caregivers:
“This program is excellent. Thank you for your help and support. I could not have survived the long changes of this disease.”
“It has had such a positive impact on my husband’s quality of life. He has made new friends and has things to talk about when he gets home.”
