Becoming a Participant

 

You may be referred to the program by a friend, relative, physician, therapist or you may contact Lifestyles Adult Day Healthcare Center directly regarding various services available and to schedule an intake interview.

Your first step is to be evaluated during an intake interview by the staff to determine your eligibility and need for assistance. If you are dealing with conditions and diseases that endanger your quality of life and continued independence, you may qualify for program services.

To qualify you must need health care/or therapy services but not require 24-hour care.

Once the intake is complete you will be scheduled for a home visit from our Social Worker. A medical history is obtained from your personal physician or from an exam by the staff physician. Detailed assessments are conducted at the center by the clinical staff to determine exactly which services are needed and how frequently you would need to attend. After you qualify, you are counseled on your plan of care, your attendance is arranged and transportation is scheduled as necessary.
