Briteside Adult Day Center, located in Flemington, is now part of Hunterdon Healthcare System's Hunterdon Regional Community Health. I was delighted to act as Briteside's counsel in making this transition.
To offer some insight, Briteside provides a comfortable, safe, home-like environment to help older adults (age 55+) who are in need of some supervision during the day to maintain their vitality. Briteside provides a program of social adult day care with activities assigned to encourage independence; promoting good health, nutrition, and self-esteem. The Center provides an alternative for care enabling participants to remain part of the community and offering caregivers respite.
A typical day at Briteside includes coffee and social hour in the morning, a complete lunch at noon, and an afternoon snack. Participants exercise every day with a walk in the mornings and various other exercises specifically designed for seniors. The day also includes entertainment/singing and cognitive games such as Name that Tune. Briteside is open Monday - Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. To learn more, call 908-782-8080.
