BroMenn Adult Day Services

Caregiving is not an easy task.

With more and more families faced with caring for aging parents or other adult loved ones, the need for assistance and respite is great. BroMenn Adult Day Services (ADS) exists not only to provide relief to caregivers, but also to benefit the physical, social, and spiritual well-being of the client, while providing personal care and services in a stimulating, supportive, and safe environment.

Services

Services provided are designed for adults who are capable of some degree of self-care, but incapable of full independence. Clients benefit from nursing care, activities, and supervision provided by day, while maintaining their home and family ties during the evening and on weekends. ADS can provide clients with a place to go and something to do, an alternative to the isolation and loneliness often associated with aging and disability. In many cases, ADS can help avoid premature or unnecessary institutionalization.

Location

BroMenn ADS is located at 202 E. Locust Street, Bloomington. The facility includes a day room, a dining/activity area, and a lounge where clients can rest, relax, read, watch television or socialize with others.

Admission Ages

Although BroMenn’s Adult Day Center is primarily for individuals over 60 years of age, those between 18 and 60 will be considered for admission based on their needs. Prior to admission, each client must complete an assessment process, which includes physician approval. Various sources of financial assistance may be available for those who meet requirements.

Transportation

Transportation to and from ADS is available through a specially equipped, wheelchair-accessible van for clients who reside in Bloomington Normal.

The ADS staff works in cooperation with the client, caregiver, and physician to develop a personalized program of treatment and rehabilitation, with specialized programming available for those with memory disorders. Treatment plans may include nursing care, activities, meals, transportation, intergenerational opportunities, exercise, personal care, and more. Clients may attend the center, which is open Monday - Friday, 7:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., one to five days a week, depending on their assessed need and personal desire.
