Amy
Lou Pantages, Owner/Administrator- 22 years Social Worker experience with geriatric patients in Nursing Home and Hospital
settings. Sr's Are Us was established in 1997 to allow caregivers the option of Adult Day Care Services versus premature institutionalization.
Amy currently supports The Volusia/Flagler Alzheimers' Association, Council On Aging of Volusia County, Northeast
Florida Area Agency On Aging, Ormond Beach Chamber of Commerce, Florida Social Workers Association, National Activity Directors
Association, Florida Adult Day Care Association, Agency for Persons with Disabilities and Florida Police Chief's
Association. Amy provides education to various law enforcement agencies as well as Bethune Cookman University.
Amys philosphy is simple,everyone deserves patience, kindness and understanding. Getting old or being mentally challenging
is difficult for the client as well as the care giver. Being in the community allows individuals to maximize their current
level of functioning while maintaining their independence.
We don't wear uniforms, we don't have an institutional
setting. We have a fun environment and a good time working with your loved ones!
When you enter the facility,
you can find Amy actively involved in the facility on a daily basis!  |
