Special Programs
Whirlpool Therapy – Our spa room is equipped with a whirlpool bath for relaxation and therapy.
Pet therapy – having a pet can actually help lower a person’s stress and blood pressure. At SarahCare, volunteers bring in professionally trained, well-behaved therapy pets to mingle with our guests. Your loved ones can enjoy the positive experiences of interacting with an affectionate animal, in a safe and controlled setting.
Garden Therapy – Our enclosed garden patio area is perfect for planting and raising annuals and perennials.
Intergenerational Activities -
Intergenerational Programs are designed to bring together two very different generations… Elders and Children… for the support and resources they can offer one another. As a result, the two learn from each other… sharing their feelings,
ideas, skills, and affection. We encourage the interaction of children from infancy to high school age students with our participants.
