Bayview Hunter's Point Adult Day Health Center

AVINASH KUMAR SINGH

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the Bayview Hunter's Point Adult Day Health Care Center. It was a lot of fun being able to see so many seniors interacting with people their own age during the day. I remember seeing a lot of them excitedly playing Dominos which brought a smile to my face. They had a lot of different games for the seniors including chess, checkers, connect-4, and crossword puzzles. Many of them just sat at their tables and reminisced about their life with their friends. The staff was very friendly and incredibly patient in working with the seniors. The facilities were decent but could use a little work, though it is totally understandable that there is barely any funding for ADHCs. All in all I think the staff was doing an excellent job with the resources that were available to them. The environment was super friendly and made my insides turn with joy as I got to see firsthand the care that was being provided.
