Designed to serve the growing population of adults age 60 and over who are physically or mentally frail, the HEP program provides exercise, music, arts and crafts, cultural trips and other activities. CARE offers a safe and stimulating environment for seniors while offering their caregivers a much-needed respite. Support Groups for Caregivers Support groups and individual counseling services are available free of charge for children, relatives and other unpaid caregivers of frail adults over age 60. We also offer a specialized support group for the children of adults with Alzheimer's disease. For seniors who are unable to use public transportation, LHNH's wheelchair-accessible bus provides rides to senior centers, medical appointments, grocery shopping, trips and recreational activities.
Transportation is available seven days per week.
Weekend Connections Together with the Burden Center for the Aging, Search and Care, and Stanley Isaacs Neighborhood Center, LHNH runs a weekend activity and transportation program for senior citizens on Manhattan's East Side. Transportation is provided for a wide variety of excursions to museums, performances, churches, synagogues and other destinations.
