ADULT DAY PROGRAMS

PROGRAM MISSION: To enable adults 18 years of age and older who have physical and/or cognitive impairments to remain in the community by providing a full day therapeutic health program in a protected environment.

The mission is accomplished through the Madison Adult Day Health Care Center, which provides a full-day health program in a protected environment for adults 18 years of age and older who have physical or cognitive impairments, or both. Services include health care monitoring, nursing care and support, personal care, therapeutic recreation, mental health services, special therapies, nutritional guidance, lunch, and snacks. Support for families includes individual and group counseling as well as respite from the continual need to care for the participant. Based on a physician's recommendations and a staff assessment, each participant has individually tailored program goals. Staff reviews and revises each participant's care plan every six months. The goal of the Madison Adult Day Health Center is to maintain the participant's highest level of independence and functioning to avoid, or delay, institutional placement. In FY 2004, 9 percent of the participants were under the age of 60.

Also in this program are funds for the planned Adult Health Center in South Arlington at the Walter Reed Community Center currently under construction.

SIGNIFICANT BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS:

  • The Intra-County Charges reflect services provided at the Senior Centers in the Department of Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Resources. In FY 2006, the Intra-County Charges are decreased to reflect the transfer of administrative support of programs at the Senior Centers to the Department of Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Resources.
  • Fees include a proposed increase for the program fee from $69 to $71 per day. This is a sliding fee scale that has remained flat for the past two years. The decrease budgeted for program and transportation fees reflects that a larger number of clients must pay at the lower end of the fee scale.
  • The increase in the state share reflects an increase in the USDA reimbursements ($1,102) for lunches and breakfasts served to low income program participants.
  • The decrease in Medicaid payments ($3,402) reflects a decrease in the number Medicaid eligible persons.

  • Program participants entering the program are increasingly frail which impacts their ability to stay in programs for an extended period of time.
