Sarah's Place
Haverhill’s
newest adult day health center, Sarah’s Place was created by the
dedication and commitment of three area agencies committed to the care of
elders. Bethany Homes, Penacook Place, and the Northeast Family YMCA
worked together to receive a grant through the George Wadleigh Foundation
to open Sarah’s Place.
Sarah’s Place offers services Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Participants will be encouraged to participate in a wide range of activities that will stimulate, enrich, and maintain their interests and abilities. A light breakfast, lunch and snack will be served daily. Transportation is available through the center’s van.
Sarah’s Place will offer therapeutic activities to promote health, socialization, and improved well-being. In addition to recreation, Sarah’s Place has a Registered Nurse on site to administer medication, monitor status, and communicate with the primary care physician.
