St. Luke’s Home Adult Day Health Care Program

St. Luke’s Home’s Adult Day Health Care Program is a medical program that offers a

wide range of services and activities, including therapy, nursing care, case management,

personal care and therapeutic recreation, that promote wellness and help registrants

remain at home.

Registrants’ needs are assessed and met through an individualized plan of care that is developed and

implemented by an interdisciplinary team of medical professionals, including the registrant’s personal

community physician.

The Adult Day Health Care Program is located in the Center for Rehabilitation and Continuing Care Services

on the St. Luke’s Campus. The spacious, state of the art facility features a rehabilitation gym, therapeutic

recreation area, fine dining, bathing facility and medical treatment room, as well as a quiet room.

Registrants arrive at the facility through a private entrance and are

greeted by members of our staff at the reception area. Conveniently

located near the entrance is a locker room for registrants to keep their

personal items during the day.

Transportation is provided to and from the program for those who live

within a 10 mile radius.

We organize many recreational and social activities in our specially-

designed activity room to keep our registrants busy and active.

Activities range from pet therapy, bowling, crafts, word games and

trivia to group exercise, entertainment, outings and shopping trips.

Registrants are provided nutritionally-balanced, warm lunches,

served in a private dining room. A continental breakfast and

afternoon snacks are also available.

For those interested in quiet activities and relaxation, we offer areas

for TV viewing and conversation. A library of large-print books is

also available.

We accommodate each registrant’s individual needs and schedules.

For those in need of rest, we offer a private nap room for short periods

of use.

Registrants are given nursing, case management, clinical management,

medical, diagnostic, social and rehabilitative services on a regular

basis. Services are provided according to the needs of the registrant,

and range from monitoring, observing and maintaining the individual’s

health status to in-depth interventions and utilization of resources.

Our bathing facility includes a shower and state of the art Parker

tub which are easily accessible to accommodate registrants requiring

assistance with personal hygiene.

Our registered nurse (RN) conducts a comprehensive assessment to

identify an individual’s healthcare needs, and the type and intensity of

services required. The individual will be admitted if it is the professional

opinion of the RN, the individual’s personal physician, the other

interdisciplinary team members, the registrant and the caregiver that

his or her assessed needs can be satisfactorily met, either entirely or

in part, by the services we provide.
