It is the goal at Briteside to provide a program of social adult day care with activities assigned to accentuate the positive and encourage independence; to promote good health, nutrition, and self-esteem. The Centers provide an alternative for care enabling participants to remain part of the community and offering caregivers respite.

Every day the Briteside Centers include a coffee and social hour in the morning, a complete lunch at noon, and an afternoon snack. Participants exercise every day with a walk in the mornings and various other exercises specifically designed for seniors. These activities put pep in our steps!

Our participants also like to play games. Some of our favorites include Skee Ball and Bowling. We also enjoy playing with our giant parachute! A real crowd pleaser is Balloon Volleyball. We also make time for table games such as dominos, Yahtzee, and jig saw puzzles. Not surprisingly, we sing a lot of the old songs from the 20's, 30's and 40's.We also learn new songs that we can all sing together.

Both Centers are open Monday through Friday,
8am-5pm throughout the entire year..
