Senior Daily Living Center-Altoona
Our center provides adult day services to offer a safe and secure daytime “home away from home” for senior adults who caregivers must work or tend to other responsibilities. The programs and staff teams focus on the physical, mental and spiritual well-being of each person. The Altoona center is unique in that it is in the same building as the Growing Years Early Learning Center, allowing for intergenerational activities with children and seniors.
