Senior Wellness

Jeffery Hale Community Services wants to ensure that seniors get the support they need to maintain good health and stay independent in their own homes as long as possible.

Caregiver Support

No matter who you are caring for - an aging parent, spouse, relative, neighbour - our "With a Little Help from My Friends" program helps you meet the daily challenges of caregiving.  Read our Caregiver Support brochure for more details.

Day Centre

This weekly activity is fun and good for you. We have outlets at the Jeffery Hale and in Valcartier. The Day Centre also takes its show on the road once a month to Portneuf.

Read our Day Centre brochure for more details. Among many other benefits, the Day Centre provides you with:

  • A complete meal
  • Adapted transportation by bus or mini-van
  • Living Room program for seniors with special needs
  • Nursing services
  • Occupational Therapy services
  • Special Educator services

Living Room

This is a day program for older adults with special needs such as severe memory loss or physical disabilities. It is a smaller group than that of the Day Centre, with a maximum of six clients accompanied by staff and/or volunteers.

Caregivers can feel confident entrusting their loved one to us for the day. Read our Living Room brochure for more details.

Living Room Outreach

For seniors who are staying in a transition bed while waiting their place at Saint Brigid's Home. We create a plan of activities (playing cards, giving a manicure, crafts, chatting, etc.) adapted to each client's unique needs and carry out these activities at the client's transition residence.

Read our Living Room Outreach brochure for more details.

Wellness Clinics

Regular meetings with a community health nurse can prevent small problems from becoming big ones and help you carry on leading a productive and active life. The best part about this service is that we bring it to the residents of Stoneham:

  • Flu and pneumonia vaccinations
  • Health promotion and illness prevention activities
  • Individual health monitoring
  • Info-Stop medication record
