Active Day of Sumter sits at 930 Oswego Highway and offers adult day care and assisted living services for seniors and adults with disabilities, so folks can come in weekdays from early morning until late afternoon or every other Saturday for a shorter day, and you see people gathering in the indoor common areas where they spend time together, take part in therapeutic activities, and get nutritious meals and snacks that are prepared right at the center. The staff help with medication administration and there's health care available, including special attention for people with diabetes, incontinence, or folks who aren't able to walk on their own, and the team of caregivers does its best to keep everyone healthy and feeling respected, always looking after the emotional and spiritual sides too, with devotional and faith activities set up off-site for anyone interested.
You'll find the doors open to both seniors and adults with different kinds of needs, even people who need a bit of extra help because of disabilities, and the center has special community support for those with intellectual and developmental disabilities, including life skill building, work support, job placement, and daily community-based activities, all guided by trained professionals. Regular transportation gets people to the center and back home safely, and they'll even drive folks to their doctor appointments if needed. These programs make it possible for people to stay independent and active, and there's always something going on, whether that's group games, social time, or learning new skills. Under the direction of Center Director Tyra Jefferson, Active Day of Sumter stays steady in its commitment to safe, friendly care, and provides support through a national network with resources like findhelp and other social care programs, so people have access to what they need in a dependable place every day.
