About adult day services ...

There is no place like home—that’s why Manatawny Manor offers adult day services. In many situations, the program allows older persons or those with disabilities to live at home or with family members during the evenings and weekends.

Providing caregivers with a respite during the weekdays, Diakon Adult Day Services at Manatawny offers a comfortable and stimulating setting in which participants enjoy a myriad of services and amenities.

Participants are supervised in a secure setting by a registered nurse/program director and program assistants. Together, they encourage participants’ maximum level of participation, potentially preventing social isolation or premature placement in a care center.

Adult day services include ...

• Social service consulting
• Medication assistance
• Bathing and grooming
• Beauty and barber services
• Podiatry services
• Physical, occupational and speech therapies
• Hot delicious meal
