Eliza Bryant Village’s Adult Day Program offers specially tailored programs and services to assist seniors with a wide variety of activities that help maintain independence, promote feelings of self-worth and help seniors stay in their homes longer. As we listened to the needs of our participants and the concerns of their caretakers, we learned we needed to improve our services for emotional and mental health. With funding from the United Black Fund, we created a Relaxation Room that helps participants find a safe space to take time to themselves to think, relax, and gather themselves before returning to activities with their peers. We also added a new service – massage therapy – that helps reduce problems associated with chronic stress such as depression, anxiety and hypertension, as well as to heal physical aches and pains of aging.
