What is Adult Day Services?
Daily Activities
The YWCA of Bethlehem Adult Day Services Center
was created in 1984 to meet the needs of women
and their families. The center provides a licensed,
therapeutic, social day care program for senior women
and men ages 60 years or older and provides respite to
caregivers.
Activities in the social wellness program
that “bring the community inside” include:
The purpose of the program is to avoid early nursing
home placement so that older adults can remain with
their families for as long as possible. In addition, it is
the goal of the program to help caregivers lessen stress,
continue to remain employed and to have a chance to
revitalize themselves.

Are you increasingly worried about the health
and safety of a loved one?
Are you increasingly worried about the isolation
or inactivity of a family member?
Are you providing care for – or worrying about –
an elderly family member?
Would rest from full-time care help you to become
an even better caregiver or help you stay healthy?
If you checked “yes” to any of the questions,
our Adult Day Services may be right for you.
