Adult Day Care Communities in Fremont, CA

"My mom, who is physically healthy with dementia, has been a client here for over a year now. The caregivers here are true caregiving professionals: sincerely caring, patient, and knowledgeable. The variety of activities for their clients is also great, and it is obvious the staff works as a team. The case manager and director kept in regular contact with me to monitor changes in my mom's behavior and health. They also offered many additional caregiving resources, including providing me with information for a respite grant that I applied for and was approved! Medi-Cal will not pay for SCADS, but they offer sliding scale rates based on your ability to pay. The Peninsula is fortunate to have SCADS!"

"My wife goes to Alzheimer's Activity Center for day care two times a week, from 8 in the morning to 6 at night, and it is very good. The facility is clean and neat. They give her a meal at noon and two little snacks. If they don't like the lunch or snack, they give them alternatives. They do have activities that keep them busy and she enjoys it. They read the funny paper every morning. They sit around a table for eight in a huge room and they move, but they don't do strenuous exercise. Once she is in there, she happy. They are not restrained, but they cannot go out in the street. You can have it two days a week, like Tuesday and Thursday, or Monday and Wednesday, or you can you go there four days. It is not very expensive either. For nine days a month, it costs $563 and that is really cheap. I will recommend them to everybody. "

"I found Sarahcare of Campbell and probably within a month we are going to start some kind of program for my husband. I did go and visit them and I like the place very much. It is closer to my home. About the staff, what I saw was that they were very helpful and I felt like the clients or patients who were there were well attended. To me it felt like they were in their own living room. The first thing I like about this day care was that there is about an hour of sit-and-read or sit-and-speech type of exercises everyday and I think that is really critical for someone who is trying to maintain strength as they get older. Everyday they got different activities. Also they have a five-hour program that I like, so that is what I'm going to go with probably. Based on my touring, everything looks great. "
