Growing older brings with it a whole new set of medical and social concerns. For this reason, St. Bernards offers a variety of programs to keep seniors healthy and active. A geriatrician practices at our Senior Health Clinic, and St. Bernards is a partner in the Center on Aging-Northeast. From our 55PLUS membership program to the Senior Life Centers, seniors will find a wide range of daily activities or seminars to enjoy. During times of illness or recovery, or when one is unable to live alone, seniors may benefit from services like home healthcare, adult day care, Lifeline, or assisted or retirement living.
St. Bernards Home Healthcare provides skilled and non-skilled services on an intermittent and hourly basis to patients in their homes. This care will promote, maintain, or restore health and/or maximize a patient's level of independence while minimizing the effects of disability and illness. Home Health is a cost-effective, quality driven alternative to institutionalized care. Services include skilled nursing, personal care, physical, occupational and speech therapy, and social services. These services are offered 24 hours a day, seven days a week within a fifty-mile radius of St. Bernards.
