Attendance at a Senior Access program can prevent isolation and provide important social contact for people of similar ages and life experiences. Our Staff Senior Access centers are licensed and staffed with certified program directors, activity directors, and program assistants who are specially trained to work with people with memory loss, dementia, or chronic illnesses. Individualized Assessment and Care Plans Each participant is thoroughly assessed prior to entering our programs and an activity care plan is developed.
