Stanly Adult Care Center

We are a nonprofit organization established in December of 2021 to bring adult day health care and respite services to residents of Stanly County.

Our services will be available to adult residents (18 years and older) of Stanly, Montgomery, Anson, Rowan, and Cabarrus Counties. Adult day health services offer participants meaningful activities, interaction with friends, nutritious meals, health care services (such as health monitoring and medication administration), assistance with personal care (bathing and hair care), and transportation. Participants’ families will benefit from adult day services by receiving respite, or a break, from caregiving and can continue their own lives, which may include working, participating in community activities, and raising children. Currently there are no adult day health services in Stanly or Montgomery Counties. Stanly Adult Care Center will be certified by the North Carolina Division of Aging and Adult Services as a combination day care/day health center. Our goal is to be the premier provider of Adult Day Health Services in our area. Goals and objectives include the following: · Participants will be provided supervision and health care in a safe, homelike setting. · Participants will participate in appropriate enriching activities and develop nurturing relationships to improve their emotional and social well-being. · Participants will maintain or improve their level of functioning for as long as possible and continue to live at home rather than in expensive institutional alternatives such as assisted living/nursing home facilities. · Family caregivers will experience peace of mind and decreased stress levels while they work or take care of personal matters during the day. · Family caregivers will receive education and support to better prepare them to meet caregiving demands. Our mission is to provide safe, compassionate, and exceptional adult day health care services that will offer meaningful, individually tailored programs and care designed to enhance the quality of life of adults with physical or mental impairment while providing respite care for families and caregivers. Our vision is to be the community’s premier adult day health care provider of services that promote health, wellness, support, and peace of mind for our clients and their families.

Behind the Scenes with Our Team

Before the first participant walks through our doors, there is a dedicated team working behind the scenes to build something special at Stanly Adult Care Center, Inc.

Recently, our staff spent time together outdoors for a day of appreciation, fellowship, and team building. While we enjoyed games, conversation, and time together, the day was also an opportunity to test activities, explore our outdoor spaces, and think through how to make each experience safe, engaging, and meaningful for the participants we will soon serve.

Opening an Adult Day Health program takes patience, creativity, and teamwork. Every activity we plan and every detail we consider is centered around one goal: creating a safe and welcoming environment for adults and caregivers in our community.

If there has ever been a team deserving encouragement and appreciation, it is this one. Their dedication behind the scenes is helping turn a vision into reality.

I am incredibly grateful for each of them.

A Season of Renewal

Tip 7: Ask for Help Before You're Exhausted

Caregiving often feels like something we must carry alone.

But renewal begins when support enters the picture.

Reaching out to family, friends, or community resources can lighten the load and restore balance.

Sometimes the smallest step toward peace is simply allowing someone else to help.

Community partnerships make a powerful difference.

Recently we had the privilege of welcoming students from Pfeiffer University’s Business Program, led by Dr. Gross, to Stanly Adult Care Center, Inc.

These students spent time learning about the work involved in launching a nonprofit adult day health program and the impact community-based services can have on families.

Partnerships like this not only support student education but also strengthen local organizations and the communities we serve.

Small Steps, Big Peace — Tip 6: Let “Good Enough” Be Enough

Caregiving doesn’t require perfection.

Good enough meals.
Good enough routines.
Good enough days.

Peace grows when pressure shrinks.

Small Steps, Big Peace — Tip 5: Protect One Pocket of Energy

Not your whole day — just one pocket.

Ten minutes.
One boundary.
One pause.

Energy protection is care, not selfishness.

Small Steps, Big Peace — Tip 4: Fewer Decisions = More Calm

Caregivers make hundreds of decisions a day.

One small step:
Remove one unnecessary decision.
Same breakfast. Same routine. Same schedule.

Less deciding = more peace.

Small Steps, Big Peace — Tip 3: You Don’t Need to Catch Up

If you feel behind already, pause.

There is nothing to catch up on.
You are allowed to begin gently.
This season is about steadiness — not speed.

Small Steps, Big Peace — Tip 2: Choose One Anchor

January doesn’t need a full reset.
It needs one steady anchor.

Choose one small daily habit:
• Morning coffee in quiet
• A short walk
• A consistent bedtime cue

Small consistency creates big peace.

Small Steps, Big Peace — Tip 1: Start With Your Body

Caregiving after the holidays can leave your body on high alert.

Before goals or routines, start here:
• Take three slow breaths
• Drop your shoulders
• Unclench your jaw

Peace doesn’t start with plans —
it starts when your body feels safe again.

New Year Reminder: Gentle Starts Are Still Strong Starts

It’s January 2 — and just in case you needed this reminder:

You don’t need a perfect plan.
You don’t need big resolutions.
You don’t need to have it all figured out.

You just need one gentle step forward.

This year, we’re choosing progress over pressure, grace over guilt, and support over doing it alone.

Here’s to a year of caring — for others and for ourselves. 💙💚
