Circle of Friends Adult Day Health

Overview of Circle of Friends Adult Day Health

Circle of Friends Adult Day Health operates as a 36-participant adult day center at 1001 Morningside Drive in Waycross, Ware County, Georgia, under the administration of Roxanne Farr.

Since 2015, the facility has maintained a seven-day operating schedule supported by around-the-clock staffing. The program serves participants who remain in their own homes or family residences while attending daytime sessions for structured programming and support. Staffing presence across all hours supports both predictable daytime schedules and occasional evening or early-morning transitions.

The center’s service delivery centers on personal care assistance, cognitive engagement activities, transportation to and from the facility, and nutritionally balanced meals prepared under the guidance of a registered dietitian. Individual medical diets and documented food allergies receive specific attention. The program’s non-residential model preserves participant and family independence while providing professional support, socialization, and oversight during scheduled weekday and weekend hours.

Staff fluency in multiple languages accommodates a diverse participant population.

Daytime activities include music sessions, games, and outdoor recreation designed for small-group engagement.

An annual inspection completed on January 24, 2018, documented zero deficiencies and no cited violations. The facility’s regulatory record contains no fines, license actions, or enforcement findings.

Funding integration with Georgia’s Community Care Services Program enables Medicaid-eligible participants to use respite coverage up to 240 hours annually, typically at a daily rate near $75.

The center fits older adults and family caregivers seeking daytime supervision and social engagement without permanent relocation, particularly those valuing meal preparation by a registered dietitian and accessible transportation logistics.
