“My son is presently attending Active Day, and the current staff is the best! They are friendly and helpful to all the clients they serve, and they have a caring attitude which is so important in this type of work. The facility is open and spacious enough for my son to move independently in his wheelchair, and he enjoys his time there. I feel very comfortable knowing my son is well taken care of and safe in a warm, family-like atmosphere.“ SHERRY MOODY INDIANAPOLIS, IN

Judy loves having her mother in her home, but she needs help caring for her so she can work and run errands. Active Day provides a place where her mother can go for a few days a week, where Judy has confidence that Phyllis will be happy and receive the positive attention she needs. Active Day serves as a trained second set of eyes to help ensure that mom is at her best.

Who We Serve
Active Day makes a difference to members. Members rely on us to show them the Brighter Side of Caring. Meet Lynn. She’s an 85 year old woman who lives at home with her daughter. She knows many others her age are going into nursing homes or have at-home care. However, Lynn still wants to socialize and be active, and she doesn’t need 24/7 care. Lynn wants to extend her quality of life and help alleviate some of the burden she knows she places on her daughter. She wants to look forward to every day, because she knows that she’ll be greeted by smiling faces and fun activities.
