Residents are treated as unique individuals and all have personalized care plans that identify the services that they will receive. As their care needs change the plans are adjusted accordingly. The organization is also involved in the process of studying the feasibility, desirability, and practicality, of expanding to other levels of assisted living and/or engaging in independent living programs for seniors. Daughters further offers respite care to adults in the community. This short-term service provides up to thirty days of a loving, safe, appropriately monitored care in an assisted living facility for individuals needing and desiring to experience such a level of care.
