Adult Day Services offers care at our Blue Ash location for your loved one with cognitive issues.
As we age, cognitive issues, memory problems, or dementia can become a growing challenge. Here you can get the support you both need.
Our newly designed space is a safe, comfortable environment where staff help older adults impacted by memory challenges enhance their
quality of life.
We care. We do cutting-edge programming that has won us a national grant. Our participants have met service dogs, done yoga with goats, petted sharks in portable tanks, gone for nature hikes,
taken photos, contributed art to a gallery opening, and more.
Your loved one may have lost parts of themselves. They may have stopped driving, stopped attending synagogue or church, or become more distant from friends. Here, despite the losses, we
believe in honoring the individual's dignity and respecting their full personhood. Here, they gain friendships, maintain creativity, use their sense of humor, and enjoy community. It's
restorative. And we have fun.
We emphasize nature- and art-based programming. Our multifaceted approach incorporates physical movement, social connection, emotional health, art, music, and one-to-one intellectual stimulation suited to each person's capacity and enjoyment.

A program to help older adults impacted by memory challenges enhance their quality of life.
Barry and his daughter Ilana share why this program is great for participants and caregivers.
In November of 2023, Jewish Family Service opened the doors to Adult Day Services in response to a growing need in our community: older adults with dementia challenges were increasingly at risk of becoming socially isolated. Our program was developed to help these older adults enhance their quality of life, while providing a way for family caregivers to get an all-important respite.
Thanks in large part to the deft management of Becky Borello, Adult Day Services has been tremendously successful in meeting a critical community need. So much so that in August of 2024, we were awarded a grant of more than $145,000 from the Alzheimer’s Association Center for Dementia Respite Innovation. Jewish Family Service was one of only 21 recipients nationwide––chosen from nearly 300 applicants and the sole agency in Ohio––to receive this funding. This honor shines a bright light on our dedication, our competence, and our overall excellence.
We remain determined to enhance the quality and availability of dementia-specific respite care for Cincinnatians living with dementia and their caregivers.
