Expanding Céilí Cottage
Since 2013, Céilí Cottage at Active Generations has provided specialized care for individuals with advanced Alzheimer’s and other dementias in a warm, home-like setting. With a 1:4 staff-to-participant ratio, we offer personalized support by collaborating with caregivers and healthcare providers.
A New Facility to Better Serve Our Community
As demand continues to grow, our original cottage on West Avenue can no longer meet the need. Our expansion to a new, state-of-the-art facility at our East Side campus will feature:
- An efficient layout to enhance staff support and program capacity
- More accessibility with improved amenities
- Outdoor activity areas for engagement and enrichment
- The same welcoming, home-like atmosphere that makes Céilí Cottage special
