Bright Side Adult Day Centers belong to a very unique group of services.  Currently, there are 4,000 Adult Day Centers in the country, and Rockford is fortunate to have three of them. Our program, which began in 1973, has the distinction of being one of the first adult day programs in Illinois. 

Bright Side Adult Day Center’s three locations provide safe, therapeutic daytime care for the infirm elderly as well as disabled individuals under the age of 60.  The goal is to promote a community based program designed to meet the needs of functionally impaired adults in a structured, comprehensive program providing health and social services in addition to therapeutic activities. Bright Side’s service allows caregivers to continue with employment and daily living routines while their loved ones thrive in a stimulating, caring environment designed to provide multiple opportunities for socialization and remotivation therapy. 

Bright Side offers the following opportunities to its participants:

• Music, exercise, and arts & crafts activities.

• Medical monitoring including medication administration by a registered nurse.

• Qualified, professionally trained staff at a 1 to 6 staff to participant ratio.

• Hot, nutritious lunches and snacks.

• Remotivation therapy.

• Round trip transportation on wheelchair accessible vehicles.

Bright Side participants can attend from one to five days per week for up to ten (10) hours per day.  Respite service is also available with only 24-hours notice.  We keep the cost affordable and financial assistance is available to those who qualify.
