Meaningful,
Dignified Day Care In A Gracious Environment
River Garden understands that caring for an older person is
not always easy, especially if that person is physically impaired
or mild to moderately confused.
As a nationally recognized leader in the care and shelter
of the aging, the Adult Day Program at River Garden is structured
to meet the special needs of those you love while allowing
you to work or go about your other daily activities. Each
evening the person in your care rests comfortably at home.
River Garden provides a safe, secure and gracious environment
where older people can join together in friendship and dignified
activities. |

all participants, including: |

Movies |
