Our Services
We create a lively social community for your loved one’s participation while also addressing any healthcare needs. Specifically, The Ivey is a place with programs of care and community for those living with Alzheimer’s and other types of memory loss, such as stroke and age-related dementias, Parkinson’s, frailty, and social isolation.
The Ivey’s holistic approach to programs & services enables older adults to live more independently, freeing family caregivers to resume normal day-to-day activities. Many older adults enter nursing homes prematurely because of caregiver exhaustion. Adult day care programs provide a preferred plan of care designed to allow loved ones to remain in their homes for as long as possible and allow caregivers the opportunity to resume normal day-to-day activities.
