Looking to provide companionship and care for an adult who may need assistance or supervision during the day? The Catholic Charities Adult Day Center provides care and supervision in a community-based environment for older adults and individuals with disabilities.
Located on the east side of Madison, the center offers a secure and supportive environment designed to enhance the social, psychological, and physical wellbeing of participants. From music therapy to physical exercise to enjoying community outings to popular Dane County destinations, the adult care center offers comprehensive services tailored to meet the needs of those with medical conditions, cognitive, developmental or physical disabilities.
“Determining if a loved one is a good fit for the adult day center involves assessing their individual needs and preferences,” says James Debilzen, director of communications and Catholic identity at Catholic Charities Diocese of Madison. “The program is most appropriate for adults who require some level of assistance with daily activities, seek social interaction and benefit from a structured environment. Families are encouraged to visit the facility, meet the staff and discuss their loved one’s specific needs to ensure that the program is the right match.”
