FULTON – A ribbon cutting ceremony officially launched a new program designed especially for older adults in the Oswego County community.

Developed by St. Luke Health Services, The Cornerstone Club Social Day Program in Fulton offers members a comfortable place to socialize and take part in activities with staff available to provide supervision, health and nutrition monitoring, and assistance with personal care needs, all in a safe location that is easily accessible.

The club is located at the newly renovated Catholic Charities site at 808 W. Broadway (State Route 3).

Club members can arrive as early as 7:30 a.m. and stay until closing time at 5:30 p.m. weekdays. Attendance options are flexible; members will be able to attend the program based on their preferences, either in full-day or half-day increments.

The club’s professional staff can provide personal care to members that includes hands-on assistance with mobility, eating, medication supervision and other activities of daily living. A nutritious lunch and snacks are included each day.

Those benefiting from the program may be experiencing limitations due to a functional impairment such as a stroke, or cognitive impairments such as Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia-related illnesses.

Caregivers will find the club to be a valuable resource in the community, as a place to bring their loved one, offering a structured program that promotes social interactions that can help enhance quality of life.

Members can arrange for their own transportation or program staff can help arrange for transportation services as needed.

Enrollment can be for paid privately, through Managed Long Term Care Plans, or other local programs. Rates are based on full- or half-day visits.

On hand at the ribbon cutting ceremony to help launch the new program were representatives from the city of Fulton; Greater Oswego-Fulton Chamber of Commerce; Catholic Charities of Oswego County and members of the board of directors of St. Luke Health Services and program staff.

A grant from the Richard S. Shineman Foundation assisted The Cornerstone Club in equipping the new program, making for a comfortable and engaging space for those attending.

Cornerstone Club Open House Planned

An Open House for the community will take place on November 9 from 3 to 5 p.m., in conjunction with Catholic Charities of Oswego County at the recently renovated location in Fulton.

All are welcomed to tour the program and speak with program staff.

Refreshments will be provided.

The program is now enrolling participants.

Those interested in arranging a personal tour, or have questions can contact Nicole Greenier, program director at 315-592-2001. An initial program application is also available for download at www.cornerstoneclubfulton.com.
