ATTENTION EXHAUSTED CAREGIVERS! YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DO THIS ALONE!
One of the greatest benifits of Adult Day Care is that
it gives socially isolated adults the opportunity to establish new roles and relationships in a safe and trusting environment
and keeps families together longer! We offer our participants a warm, home like environment during the day
where they can choose from a range of different activities designed to promote socialization, independence, and boost
self esteem. Our program is a win/win situation for the entire family. Not only will our participants benefit,
but it will provide respite relief for the caregiver as well. Our staff are professionally trained, and dedicated to
providing meaningful care that nurtures the human spirit.
"As a physician I believe that socialization and physical activity are an important part of a healthy
lifestyle to reduce the risk for depression and dementia in the elderly population. Accumulating evidence
suggests that physical, mental and social activity reduces the risk of depression and dementia in the elderly, and leads
to an improvement in functional status. Adult day care programs such as Magnolia Manor provide the mental
and physical stimulation that will reduce the risk of depression, and the increased mortality associated with
depression." Sincerely, Dr.Christopher Reid M.D. Magnolia Manor Board Member

I am thrilled that Ft. Walton Beach finally has an adult day
care program and Magnolia Manor is a wonderful place for families that need respite care!!! I have
been a medical social worker in the panhandle for over 22 years and have seen the need for such a facility in this
area for years. I have been so pleased to be a part of a program that offers a comfortable and caring place
for so many people that need a "home away from home" for a day. Finally, we can offer
families in the Ft.Walton Beach area a place for their loved ones to stay while they work or just need a day or
two away. Not only will they find a loving environment in which they can leave their family member, but will
also find the invaluable gift of "peace of mind" while they are away.
