Adult Day Support Program (ADSP)
Bethany provides support to seniors in Cochrane and Calgary through the Adult Day Support Program. The program offers social, physical, intellectual and spiritual opportunities for seniors living in the community, helping them maintain their independence and have fun in the process.
What do we do
ADSP is not about medical care, it’s a proactive program about staying healthy. In this program, seniors in the community get together to make new friends, practice their hobbies and keep their minds active.
Seniors in our program work with music therapists, play active games, cook and garden, participate and learn in wellness clinics and spend time socializing. Some clients have used the program to write and perform plays, record music albums and participate in debates on current affairs.
With flexibility in programming, we can tailor activities to your interests.
How do I know if ADSP is for you?
- Do you like to socialize?
- Are you interested in getting out of the house?
- Do you have a hobby that you have stopped doing because it’s gotten to hard?
- Do you want to keep learning?
- Are you looking for support, or a new friend to talk to?
If you can relate to these questions, ADSP is for you.
