Adult Day Health Program in Yakima

 

The EnTrust Adult Day Health (ADH) program is designed to serve adults with social, health, cognitive, physical and emotional needs.  The primary goal of ADH is to maintain or improve the individual’s level of functioning for as long as possible, preventing or delaying further deterioration which allows the individual to remain in the family home and out of a nursing home. ADH makes a huge impact on the quality of life of the people we serve through our licensed health care staff and structured therapeutic activities, which are provided both for the developmentally disabled and the disabled elderly. 

ADH began serving participants in November, 2008.  Currently, October 2009, we have 21 active participants.  EnTrust ADH is licensed to serve 43 in our Yakima facility.
