Friendship Cottage is dedicated to providing adult day services to dependent adults who are coping with challenges related to physical health, mental well-being, or memory. The central promise of this care home is to tend to the diverse needs of its guests with sensitivity, while also offering guidance and support to their families and friends. Friendship Cottage was created out of a commitment to compassionate care, guided by the inspirational words of Saint Francis of Assisi: "Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible." This philosophy is woven throughout the daily work at Friendship Cottage, shaping a warm, welcoming environment where every individual is treated with dignity and respect.
At Friendship Cottage, the goal is not only to meet the physical and emotional needs of dependent adults but to also act as a support system for those who care for them. The staff work closely with guests and their loved ones to ensure a comprehensive approach to care that addresses the whole person. Whether someone is navigating the difficulties of aging, managing long-term illness, or dealing with the effects of memory loss, the team at Friendship Cottage is equipped and compassionate, fostering a sense of community and connection among participants.
