    Our Background
Founded in 1973, Cornerstone Adult Services, Inc. is a community based not for profit organization. Adults who avail themselves of our services are cared for at home and in day centers by our well-trained staff of RN's, CNA's, social workers and volunteers. Supervised activities, nursing care, transportation, nutritious meals, and physical exercise are all part of Cornerstone's programs.

Currently, Cornerstone operates four day centers -- an Alzheimer's and dementia specific center at our new state-of-the-art facility on Warwick Neck Avenue, mixed population centers in the Apponaug section of Warwick and in Coventry, and a new day center in Bristol.


The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation recognized the excellent care provided for the participants in Cornerstone's programs. In November 1999, the foundation selected Cornerstone as one of 18 National Model Teaching Day Centers. Professionals from new and expanding programs throughout the country visit the Alzheimer's site for one-day training sessions four times a year.

From the beginning, Cornerstone participants have found enough activity to help them enjoy their day and enough quiet care and attention to help them and their caregivers feel secure.
