Adult Medical Day
Since 1927, The League has helped individuals achieve their community re-entry goals.
The League’s Adult Medical Day Program is designed specifically to address the mental, cognitive and physical challenges of adults with a variety of disabilities. Our program recognizes that recovery from the effects of a brain injury, a neurological disease or other disabling impairments such as stroke is often slow. We know how important it is to learn life-long coping skills, in order for individuals with disabilities to continue to live within their communities. The program serves clients ages 18 and up who are living with traumatic brain injury, neurological impairment or disabilities resulting from stroke, mental health, congenital impairment, seizure disorders or other medical conditions. Individuals enrolled in the Adult Medical Day Program are assessed and given an individual plan of care. Within a supervised and structured environment, individuals are offered a wide array of therapeutic and recreational activities that increase mental acuity and physical ability. These activities stimulate interest in life, nurture friendships and provide opportunities for creativity.
