Elderhaus at the Lake – Adult Day Center
As we age, new questions and challenges arise: How will I preserve my physical health? Will I still have the option of living independently? What will my quality of life be? Elderhaus is committed to addressing these concerns by offering community-oriented adult day care services.
Participants in our program may receive transportation to and from our facility, care provided by Certified Nursing Assistants, snacks and lunches appropriate for their dietary needs, and an on-site Licensed Nurse available to provide follow-up care in accordance with a physician’s orders.
In addition to these services, seniors are engaged throughout the day with group activities, the option for physical exercise, and interaction with volunteers and community organizations.

Elderhaus Home Care
Is independent living becoming difficult for you or someone you love? If you need assistance with everyday basics – dressing, preparing meals, remembering your medications – Elderhaus can help. Our Certified Nursing Assistants are competent, compassionate, and have been carefully vetted to ensure you are provided the best care possible.
Clients must live within the Elderhaus PACE Home Care service area of New Hanover and eastern Brunswick counties. The Registered Nurse’s assessment must determine that Elderhaus PACE Home Care can safely meet the needs of the client, and the client must have a payment source that is accepted by Elderhaus PACE Home Care.
“The people are all very well trained. They know their job. They know our needs. They probably know our needs before we do. Their doors are always open if you need to go and talk to them.”
