OUR STORY
Taking care of an aging loved one who needs constant supervision creates a challenge for performing daily tasks outside of the caregiving role. Sandy Price learned this firsthand as she cared for her mother with Alzheimer’s disease. Trying to juggle the demands of her various responsibilities left her feeling discouraged as well as mentally and physically exhausted. Realizing she was not the only caregiver to feel this way, she began a journey to find relief for herself and fellow caregivers, which eventually led to her founding Lighthouse Adult Care Services in April 2018.
Shining a beacon of hope, Lighthouse Adult Care Services has provided engaging activities and supervised care during the monthly Alzheimer's Caregiver Support Group and the annual Dementia Dialogues course offered through Tooele County Health Department and Aging Services. We now offer daytime supervised care for adults ages 50 and older, 10 am-4 pm Monday thru Thursday at our Center located in Our House Assisted Living center at 251 E. 1000 N. in Tooele. The daytime activities are tailored specifically to client's abilities to meet their social, physical, emotional, mental and physical needs. In addition, we offer support to the entire community with informational, educational, and training resources related to various aspects of caregiving.
Our goal is to help caregivers and those needing care live their lives
to the fullest with a sense of well-being and purpose!
