A Day Program Built for Seniors and Their Families
Our adult day health care program gives your loved one structure, social time, meals, and added health support: medication assistance, health monitoring, and a licensed nurse on-site. Participants spend the day at our center and return home in the evening.
And you get dependable respite — time to work, handle appointments, run errands, or simply take a break with peace of mind.
Is This the Right Fit?
Our program may be a good fit if
your loved one
Lives at home but needs support and routine during the day
Has early-to-moderate dementia or mild memory changes
Needs help with meals or mid-day medication
Is recovering after an illness or hospital stay
Has a family caregiver who needs a reliable break
This program may not be the right fit for someone who needs 24-hour care, advanced medical care all day, or one-on-one support at all times. If you are not sure, we can help you talk through the options.

Frequently Asked Questions
Got a question? Get answers.
What is adult day health care, and how is it different from adult day care?
Adult day health care is daytime care for older adults who live at home but need support during the day. It includes activities, meals, social time, supervision, health monitoring, and support from a care team.
Who is the program for?
Our program is for seniors who live at home but benefit from support during the day. It may be a good fit for someone who needs routine, social time, supervision, help with mid-day medication, or extra support after an illness or hospital stay.
Is this a good option for someone with dementia?
It can be. Our program can be a good fit for many people with early-to-moderate dementia or mild memory changes. The structured day, supervised setting, and caring staff can help participants feel more comfortable.
What are your hours?
We offer morning, afternoon, and full-day options: 8 AM–Noon, Noon–4 PM, or 8 AM–4 PM.
Will a nurse be on-site?
Yes. Care is provided by licensed practical nurses with registered nurse oversight. Our nursing staff gives mid-day medications as prescribed and monitors each participant’s health and wellbeing throughout the day.
How is adult day care different from assisted living or a nursing home?
Adult day care is not residential. Your loved one comes to our center during the day and returns home afterward. Assisted living and nursing homes provide full-time residential care.
Is the center only for Metairie residents
and communities throughout Jefferson Parish?
No. Our center is located in Metairie, but we serve families from across the Greater New Orleans area, including Kenner, New Orleans, Harahan, River Ridge, Elmwood, and nearby communities.
