Welcome to Cherished Place Adult Day Club at Lutheran Home

We’re thrilled to offer Cherished Place Adult Day Club, a daytime haven nestled within the Lutheran Home campus in Arlington Heights, Illinois. Each day here is an opportunity to engage mind and body, nurture meaningful connections, and give family caregivers the relief they need—all in a setting built to honor each individual’s interests and abilities.

What Makes Our Adult Day Club Unique

We designed Cherished Place to be more than a place to “come for the day.” Instead, this program brings together the fullness of social interaction, therapeutic activity, and practical support—while located right on our campus in a community-based environment. Some of the things that set us apart include:

  • Tailored activities centered on each member’s preferences and capabilities—so whether someone loves art, games, music, or gentle movement, we adapt to each person.
  • A rare adult-day-club option in Arlington Heights—offering daytime engagement in comfortable setting.
  • Convenient campus location and included transportation services—making it easier for caregivers and club members alike.

Whether you’re seeking a day filled with enrichment, or you’re a caregiver in need of dependable support, our adult day club offers a thoughtful and flexible alternative.

Our Day at Cherished Place: Enrich, Engage, Refresh

When you arrive, you’ll discover a program designed to engage your whole self—your mind, your body, and your social spirit. Highlights of our daily rhythm include:

  • Meaningful group and individual activities—arts-and-crafts, games, creative expression, live music, and more.
  • Therapeutic and movement-based opportunities, such as chair exercises and physical activity tailored to participants’ levels.
  • Nutritious meals and snacks served during the day—helping promote wellness, comfort, and social connection.
  • Personal care support—from an on-site nurse, medication administration, and assistance as needed with showers or grooming.

As a member of Cherished Place, you’ll enjoy the camaraderie of peers, the structure of positive engagement, and the flexibility of returning home in the evening—while caregivers at home gain peace of mind knowing you’re supported.

Supporting Caregivers and Building Togetherness

We fully recognize that caregiving is a journey—and that family members deserve trusted support and meaningful solutions. Our program is built not just for members, but for the broader circle of care:

  • Reliable transportation to and from our campus—reducing logistical worry for caregivers.
  • Supportive staff and programming that allow caregivers time for rest, errands, or personal time—knowing their loved one is engaged and safe.

We don’t simply offer a service—we invite families into a community where both the older adult and the caregiver are honored, supported and valued.

Our Environment: On-Campus, Connected, Person-Centered

Here are key features of our setting and what they mean for you or your loved one:

  • A day-club embedded in the Lutheran Home campus—so we’re connected to broader health and wellness services while remaining dedicated to daytime social engagement.
  • Comfortable, welcoming spaces where older adults can gather, relax, engage.
  • Programming that reflects respect for each person’s pace, abilities and interests.

In short, we’ve created a place where daytime is embraced as a chance for connection, growth, and belonging.

Is Cherished Place Right for You?

We believe our adult day club is an excellent fit for people and families who are seeking a balance of engagement, support, and freedom. You might find us a good match if you:

  • Are looking for a safe, enriching daytime environment while remaining at home in the evenings.
  • Want your loved one to participate in meaningful activity and social interaction during the day.
  • Are a caregiver looking for dependable daytime support so you can attend to your own wellbeing or responsibilities.

If staying connected, engaged, and purposeful during the day matters—and if you value a program that sees you not just as a recipient, but as a person—we invite you to explore Cherished Place with us.
