My Friend's House

Our mission is to provide high quality day services for seniors who may or may not be experiencing cognitive challenges in a stimulating, safe, and freindly environment. We strive to support and collaborate with caregivers to provide the best services for their loved one.

We provide activities that promote social, physical, creative, and cognitive stimulation. The staff is qualified to guide our friends through their individual activity of interest. 

• Exercise: Indoor and outdoor games and activities are geared to help maintain muscle strength, joint flexibility, and hand-eye coordination
• Games and Activities: Each friend engages in activities best suited for their cognitive abilities
• Memory Lane: Time is set aside for participants to discuss important events, places, things, and people from the past. This is usually an exciting sharing of by-gone eras.
• Arts & Crafts: Friends enjoy painting, molding, pasting, coloring, flower arranging, mosaics, cake decorating, and much more
