The Day Activity and Health Service program is a service provided in a congregate, non-residential setting to dependent older individuals who need supervision but do not require institutionalization. These services may include any combination of social or recreational activities, health maintenance, transportation, meals, and other supportive services. The vendor has to be licensed under the Texas Health and Human Services Commission guidelines meant to provide a safe, secure, and stimulating environment for older adults. Facilities have a nurse on-site eight hours a day and are equipped to help individuals who need assistance with daily living skills.

Health Maintenance
Services for older adults over the age of 60 to prevent illness, maintain maximum function and promote health. Health Maintenance Services may include dental assistance and emergency response system services.

ERS services include the installation of the individual monitoring unit, key lockbox, training associated with the use of the system, periodic checking to ensure that the unit is functioning properly, equipment maintenance calls, response to an emergency call by a medical professional, para-professional or volunteer, and follow-up with the older individual.
