Rehabilitative day activities for the elderly

Rehabilitative daytime activities strengthen your physical, mental and social functional capacity through exercises carried out in a peer group.

During a rehabilitative daytime activities period, you will engage in muscle strength and balance exercises to support your daily activities, cognitive exercises to enhance memory and thinking, practice various manual skills, and participate in discussions with other group members.

Personal goals will be set for you and we will monitor your progress in pursuing them during the agreed period and before it ends.

Rehabilitative daytime activities may be in-person daytime activities or remote daytime activities.

The in-person activities are organised outside the home in facilities intended for this purpose. If necessary, we will make travel arrangements for you to the rehabilitative daytime activities.

To participate in the remote daytime activities, you get to borrow an easy-to-use tablet used for carrying out the group activities.

Rehabilitative daytime activities can be granted for a fixed period of 3-6 months, after which your need for rehabilitative activities will be reassessed.

To access the service period, you must be able to engage in a group activity and participate in the group with occasional assistance. You can participate in the group even if you use mobility aids or sensory assistive devices.

Rehabilitative daytime activities can also be granted to support the coping of informal carers.

Rehabilitative daytime activities are subject to a fee. If you feel that you need rehabilitative daytime activities, contact Senior Info.
