When an adult needs help with personal needs during the day, families want support that protects dignity, encourages independence and treats their loved one with respect.

Our goal is to help participants enjoy active, engaging days while receiving appropriate assistance based on their individual needs. Personal care is provided within a welcoming adult day environment where participants can socialize, take part in physical and cognitive activities and spend time with others.

Personal Care With Dignity and Respect

Needing assistance does not change who a person is.


Adults who require additional help still deserve privacy, respect and opportunities to make choices about their day. At The Abigayle, our approach to personal care assistance recognizes the individual behind every need.


The level of assistance a participant requires can vary. Some individuals may remain largely independent but benefit from occasional support. Others may require more regular assistance throughout their time at our adult day center.


Our goal is to provide appropriate help without losing sight of each participant's dignity.


We also understand that accepting assistance can sometimes be an adjustment for the individual and the family. A patient and respectful environment can make that transition more comfortable.


Families considering our personal care services are encouraged to discuss their loved one's needs with our team so we can better understand their situation.

Helping Adults Stay Engaged During the Day

Personal care assistance is only one part of the experience at The Abigayle.


We want participants to have opportunities to enjoy their days rather than focusing solely on the assistance they need. Our adult day programs provide opportunities for social interaction and physical and cognitive activities in a loving environment.


This means participants can receive appropriate personal support while also enjoying conversation, companionship and meaningful engagement.


For adults who have become less active or spend significant amounts of time at home, attending an adult day center can add structure and variety to the week.


Participants have somewhere to go, people to interact with and activities to take part in according to their abilities and interests.


Combining personal assistance with an engaging social environment allows us to support more than practical needs. It helps us create a more complete daytime experience.

Encouraging Independence Where Possible

Providing personal care assistance does not mean doing everything for someone.


Independence can remain important even when a person begins needing additional help. Being able to participate in daily routines and make choices can contribute to a person's sense of dignity and involvement.


At The Abigayle, we believe assistance should support the individual rather than unnecessarily replace what they can still do for themselves.


Every participant is different. What independence looks like for one person may be very different for another.

Our adult day environment allows participants to receive support while continuing to engage with others and participate in activities at an appropriate level.


For families, this approach can provide reassurance that a loved one has access to assistance without removing opportunities for participation and independence.

Personal Care and Memory Support

Adults experiencing memory changes may sometimes require additional assistance during the day.


The Abigayle provides memory care support alongside personal care assistance, allowing families to access multiple forms of daytime support through the same adult day center.


Memory changes can affect routines and may make certain everyday tasks more difficult to manage independently. Having a supportive daytime environment can provide families with another option when leaving a loved one home alone is becoming less practical.


At The Abigayle, participants experiencing memory changes can have opportunities for socialization, physical activities and cognitive engagement while appropriate support is available.


Families can discuss their loved one's individual circumstances with our team to determine whether our services are suitable for their needs.

Supporting Family Caregivers

Family caregivers often take responsibility for many aspects of a loved one's daily routine.


This can include preparing meals, providing transportation, managing appointments, offering companionship and helping with personal needs. These responsibilities may be combined with employment, raising children and managing a household.


Adult day care can provide an additional source of support.


When a loved one attends The Abigayle, family caregivers can have dedicated time during the weekday to focus on other responsibilities. Meanwhile, the participant has access to a social environment, activities and appropriate assistance.


For some caregivers, this time makes it possible to continue working. For others, it creates opportunities to attend appointments or complete errands without worrying about leaving a loved one alone.

Respite can also provide valuable personal time.


Our personal care assistance and respite care services work together to help families create a more manageable caregiving routine.

A Supportive Alternative to Spending the Day Alone

Some adults who need personal assistance are still able to live at home with support from family members.



However, daytime hours can become challenging when caregivers are unavailable. Leaving someone alone for long periods may no longer feel comfortable, particularly if the individual requires assistance or supervision.


An adult day program can provide another solution.


Participants can spend weekdays at The Abigayle receiving support and engaging with others before returning to their familiar home environment.


This arrangement can provide families with greater flexibility without requiring a move into residential care.

Adult day services can also give participants more opportunities for social interaction than they might experience while remaining home throughout the day.


For the right family, this balance can become an important part of supporting a loved one's continued connection to home and community.

More Than Personal Care

Families considering personal care assistance may discover that their loved one can benefit from several services at the same time.



The Abigayle provides a range of adult day services designed to address different needs within one supportive environment.


In addition to personal care assistance, we provide social day care programs, memory care support, health monitoring, therapeutic activities, respite care services and transportation services.


These services can complement one another.


For example, an individual who needs personal assistance may also benefit from increased social interaction. Someone experiencing memory changes may benefit from cognitive activities and a structured daytime routine. A family caregiver may benefit from regular respite while their loved one participates in the program.


By providing several forms of support, The Abigayle can help families explore a daytime care arrangement based on their individual circumstances.
