Day Treatment and Training Senior Program (DTA)

Day Treatment and Training Program (DTA) for Senior Adults reflects the changing interests and needs of adults entering their senior years.  The program reflects those changing needs by offering an activity program based on socialization, memory enhancement, and skill retention. Participants enjoy opportunities to dine out in the community, visit local museums, and cultural exhibits, cuddle with a specially trained therapeutic pet, and experience the wonder of our world through the images and stories shared by others. Our seniors also enjoy corresponding with family and friends through email, or simply recording their thoughts and feeling through journaling. Ensuring the health and fitness of each participant is a critical aspect of the care provided. Participants are closely monitored for any changes in their overall health, administered medication and other medical treatments by specially training providers as needed, and are encouraged to engage in a daily fitness program that gently increases both heart rate and blood flow. Other activities include weekly arts and crafts, table games, current events, and music appreciation.
