Ecumen Offers Adult Day Services
Ecumen of Litchfield Home Care and Hospice continues to help people within a 50-mile radius of Litchfield with various health care services. Several new people have joined the Hospice team to help people in end-of-life situations.
Care Consultant Brittany Schutz says there was kind of a lull earlier this summer, but there have been more hospitalizations lately with people needing care as they transition back to their homes after having procedures such as hip replacements and need home care services.
Schutz says if anyone is in need of home care or Hospice services, they may call 693-7367. Dawn Doty oversees the Adult Day Services for Ecumen and says they have openings. She says they often care for people so that their caregivers can have a break, and the hours are flexible.
Doty says they have activities for the people in Adult Day Services such as games and exercises; they can do administration of meds, and they have lunch and snacks. She says they can take up to 25 people as there is a 1-to-5 ratio of staff to clients. For more information, call Dawn at 320-373-6627.
