Hill Country Observer: Eddy Village Green A Nursing Home Revolution

WNYT aired a story on the “Hooray for our Heroes” parade at Eddy Memory Care Center in Cohoes. The event, held on National Nurses Day, was organized by the Alzheimer’s Association of Northeastern New York as a way to say “thank you” to the nurses at the facilities, working tirelessly during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

A new $7.5 million grant from New York State will enable The Eddy to expand the community programming it offers to assist and comfort Capital Region residents who are caring for a loved one suffering from Alzheimer’s disease.

Just as child care services help parents with their children, Eddy DayBreak offers adult day programs that help seniors. Jessica Flynn of Eddy DayBreak adult day services talks about how older citizens can benefit in this WNYT report.
