Frequently Asked Questions

 

Is there a membership fee?
No, there is no membership fee.

Do I have to sign paperwork to become a member?
Yes, there is some paperwork involved, which usually takes around 30 minutes to complete. We ask that this be completed in person on the first or second visit to the Center. 

What are the requirements of the Center?
All clients should be independent. The Neighborhood Centers are for adults who are active and would like more opportunity to socialize and get out of their home without having to depend on friends and family members. If an adult has dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, or they are unable to do day-to-day tasks like feeding themselves or getting to the bathroom, they may be better suited for one of our Adult Day Health Centers, where staff are trained to assist as needed. 

Does my income have to be below a certain level to attend?
The Neighborhood Centers are open to all adults 55 and over regardless of their income.

Is transportation available?
Yes, transportation can be arranged with your Center director through an outside vendor. While we can schedule and intervene on your behalf, we can not guarantee the quality or timeliness of any transportation service.

How do I learn about the available activities?
We supply each client with an activity calendar each month which outlines all of the activities we have each day. We also display the calendar throughout the building.

What time is lunch?
Most of our Centers have lunch at 12 noon, but this can vary from Center to Center. Lunch times are indicated on our monthly calendars.

Do I have to attend every single day?
No, you do not have to attend the center every day. We recommend attending as much as possible so that you can benefit from activities, socializing, and a delicious meal. 

Do I have to be there from the time the center opens to the time it closes?
If you are using the transportation, you will be attending from opening time until closing time, but you can choose the days you attend. This is to help the transportation utilize their time effectively and to ensure that you get the benefits from being at the center for the entire time we are open. If you arrange your own transportation then you do not have to be here at opening time. You are welcome to attend any time you would like during opening hours. We do encourage clients to join as many activities as they can. Clients are also able to join the Center Site Council and give feedback that will help influence the activities at the Center.

What happens if I am sick?
If you are sick, we merely ask you to inform your Center director, especially if a meal and transportation have been ordered for you. One of the best benefits of being a member of the Neighborhood Center is becoming part of an extended family. If there is a break in your routine, the other members and director will notice and make an effort to contact you.
