ADULT DAY PROGRAM
"Adult Day Program" is a touching portrayal of a day-in-the-life of a stroke victim, Jenny, and her husband Harry. Jenny attends the Adult Day Program twice a week.
We follow Jenny from the moment she is woken by Harry, dressed, fed and assisted onto the bus; through all her experiences at Adult Day Program; then back home at the end of the day.
The goal of an Adult Day Program is to improve people's lives by providing social interaction, fun, gentle exercise and a nutritious meal. It's a day out for those that need it, an opportunity to build friendships and community spirit, and at the same time give the caregiver a needed break.
Adult Day Programs enable people to remain in their own homes for as long as possible!
