About Us

Caring For The Caregiver

At Vaughn Gage Healthy Aging Center (VGHAC), we make it our business not to forget about the caregivers. We recognize that care givers are often times overwhelmed and are in need of support and guidance themselves. Our program allows care givers respite, information, education and support when they need it most.
Family caregivers of VG members receive a free membership to VGHAC that includes counseling, monthly breakfast meetings with other care givers, massage therapy, networking events, educational conferences/ seminars and much more.
Free Caregiver membership may include financial counseling, job training, legal guidance and more. Our monthly Caregiver Lounge allows you to meet with like-minded individuals who may be in a similar life phase as you, (caregiving), and share stories and support. Food and Drinks are provided and instructional videos and brochures will be available. We look to you and the community on the best way to make this offering a success. We welcome your input and guidance on how best to serve you.

HOLISTIC CARE

Our Process

Seeing the whole person. The Whole Person approach involves looking deeply into a person’s mind, heart and spirit and seeing them as a Whole Human Being a person with the desire to realize their full potential, to contribute to the world, to be loved and to heal from their past.

Our Approach

In order for seniors to live at home safely and in the best state of health, there must be a carefully selected team working together to oversee the process. Here is an overview of the Vaughn Gage Center’s approach to assessing your personal situation and developing a plan that will work for everyone concerned.

Understanding The Person

Every person needs to be understood. Our seniors have contributed to society, raised families and have a wealth of knowledge and experience to share. Vaughn Gage (VG) Center is comprised of a team of licensed, clinical professionals and care managers who perform an in-depth assessment of each individual’s needs, desires, strengths, support system and resources and with cooperation from all concerned parties.
