Be Our Guest Adult Day Service
Be Our Guest Adult Day, commonly referred to as BOGADS, is a valuable resource for individuals and families dealing with dementia and forms of dementia such as Alzheimer's as well as other chronic health concerns (Parkinson's, Lewy Body Disease, etc.). BOGADS provides a supportive and caring environment for memory impaired adults who would benefit from a structured day club-like setting. Our goal is to provide meaningful services that enrich the lives of older adults, families and caregivers.
