+/- Adult Day Programs

Adult Day Programs 

Adult Day Programs are organized day programs of therapeutic activities for older adults and those with physical disabilities who still live at home.  We have sites in Tillsonburg, Woodstock and Ingersoll. 

People benefit from increased social interaction and stimulation through activities such as exercises, quizzes, games, music, themes, crafts and special celebrations.  Our clients can have access to our bathing program and foot care while visiting the group.  VON provides this program to promote people living as independently as possible for as long as possible in their own homes.  Caregiver relief can be an important aspect of this program.  A hot lunch is served.

Come for a day, no charge and no obligation and see how you like the group!

Children's Services 
Children's Services is a family directed respite program. 

This program offers supports that make it easier for people with disabilities to live at home,   serving people of all ages with developmental disabilities and children under 18 with physical disabilities. 
Support workers help people with disabilities to develop new skills and join in community life. The workers also provide caregiver relief and respite so family members can have weekly periods of time for themselves or other family members.

Supports are tailored to each family's specific needs and the best possible matches are made between families and their support workers.
