Respite Care
and Day Care
We recognize that frequently elderly individuals
need a few days, a few weeks, or even a few months of assistance as they
recuperate from illnesses or accidents, to give their families a break
from daily care if they are living with their families, or simply to
"try out" living in an assisted living facility. This is why we offer
short term residency options. Another option we offer is geriatric
daycare. This option allows actually living in the facility. Fees for
both of these options are typically determined on a daily basis.
Outreach/Non-Medical Home Care Service
The Jacobs House has taken its twelve years of
experience in caring for seniors in the assisted living environment
and developed an outreach program for those individuals who are not
yet ready for residential services, who wish to remain in their
homes, and can no longer manage all of their daily activities within
their homes. Our outreach services are not medically based but are
coordinated with home health agencies where necessary. The Jacobs
House Outreach services could best be categorized as "home
assistance". The services are tailored to the specific needs of each
individual and/or family and are offered as frequently as needed or
desired. A monthly service plan is developed in coordination with
the client, family and a Jacobs House representative. Program
