Daybridge is designed to support members with memory loss, including Alzheimer's, Lewy body, and related dementias. Our programming is engaging, purposeful, and fun. It adapts as needs evolve, so members are always doing something meaningful.

We do have guidelines around mobility and behavioral needs to ensure a safe, high-quality environment for every member. We'd be happy to meet and determine whether Daybridge is the right fit for your family.

You may think of Daybridge as something for later — when independence declines and care at home becomes overwhelming. But the earlier someone joins Daybridge, the more we can help them slow decline, age with dignity, bring back joy and connection to their lives, and continue doing the things they love.

Signs it may be time:

• Life at home has become lonelier and harder to fill
• Everyday tasks that once felt routine no longer come easily
• Access to OT, PT, and counseling matters, but getting to multiple appointments is a barrier

Most adult day programs serve a broad population. Daybridge was built specifically for people living with memory loss and dementia. That focus shapes everything:

• An environment designed to be calming and comforting
• An entire team specially trained in Alzheimer's and dementia care
• Programming personalized to each member's interests, abilities, and stage
• Clinical screenings designed to identify issues most common in people living with memory loss — often before families notice them at home

Every member of our care team is trained to understand the unique needs of people living with memory loss — not just clinically, but as whole people.

Our team holds:

• CARES® Dementia Training for person-centered care
• Alzheimer's Association essentiALZ® Certification
• Ongoing education in dementia care, communication, safety, and behavior support
• CPR and First Aid certification
• Medication administration training (where applicable)

All employees complete comprehensive background checks and pre-employment screening before joining the Daybridge team.

Daybridge maintains a 1:6 aide-to-member ratio throughout the day. Each center also includes an on-site RN and LPN to provide continuous nursing coverage, along with a social worker to support members and their families.

Our approach to staffing allows us to provide more individualized attention, build stronger relationships, and notice subtle changes that might otherwise go unnoticed.

We hear this a lot, and we take it seriously. Enjoyment isn't a nice-to-have; it's central to our mission of delivering better days.

Most members will be hesitant at first. That's completely normal, and we plan for it. Over the first few weeks, we'll learn what they love, what they take pride in, and what makes them laugh, then build a personalized experience around them. Each day, members choose how they want to spend their time.

Getting through the door can be the biggest hurdle early on. Our team partners with members and families from the start, sharing what tends to work, troubleshooting together, and staying flexible as we learn what works best for each person.

This is one of the many benefits of an environment designed specifically for people living with memory loss. From our design to our training to our staffing, we're prepared for these moments.

• Our space is secure, allowing members to move freely and comfortably
• Our team is trained to recognize early signs of agitation and respond with calm, personalized techniques before distress escalates
• A registered nurse will be on-site throughout the day, providing ongoing health monitoring and following care plans established with members and families

We know we have to earn your trust. The Daybridge app keeps you connected with photos and meaningful updates about your family member's day.

If something urgent comes up, we'll reach you right away through your preferred method of communication.

We will ease new members in gradually. The first few days will be shorter, and we will encourage arrival during quieter times so the environment feels welcoming rather than overwhelming. From there, we will build toward full days at a pace that's right for each member.

Most will settle into a comfortable routine within several weeks, but every transition is different. We will watch closely, adjust as we learn what works best, and stay in close communication with families throughout.

Step 1: Take a Tour
Start with a personal visit to our center. You'll see the space, meet our staff, and get a feel for daily life at Daybridge, including how we tailor activities to each member's interests and abilities.

Step 2: Submit an Application
At the end of your tour, we'll walk you through the remaining steps of the enrollment process. We will share an application with you, which will have questions about your loved one's medical history, medications, interests, and daily routines.

Step 3: Complete a Fit Visit
Once we receive your application, we'll schedule a fit visit. You and your loved one will meet with our team, and your loved one will spend some time engaging in activities while we learn more about their needs.

Step 4: Choose a Start Date and Schedule
Together, we will choose a start date and a schedule that works well for your family and your loved one.

When your loved one is engaged, connected, and well cared for, life at home gets better, too. Daybridge gives you predictable, reliable time to work, rest, or simply breathe.

Respite is just the beginning. Our social worker will partner with you to create a plan for the challenges you're navigating at home, informed by what we learn while your loved one is with us. You'll gain practical strategies, ongoing support, and the confidence that you're not carrying this alone.

$180 per day for a full nine-hour day, billed monthly based on attendance. Members may attend two to five days per week, which works out to $1,560 to $3,900 per month.

Daybridge is private pay. In general, day programs are not covered by Medicare or Medicaid. However, some long-term care insurance plans and FSA/HSA accounts may help cover some of the cost. We're happy to help you explore what's available and provide itemized documentation to support any claims.

PT, OT, and mental health services are provided onsite by our clinical partner and may be covered by Medicare or your insurance plan.

Daybridge fits alongside whatever care path is right for your family. For many members, it helps extend the time they can remain at home.

As needs evolve, our clinical team is here to help. We'll have honest conversations about when a different level of care may be appropriate and help you understand and navigate those options when the time comes. We'll be your partner every step of the way.
