History

Established in 1985.

SarahCare was founded by Dr. Merle Griff, a gerontologist with twenty years experience, who could not find the care she wanted for the families she worked with professionally and for her own aging mother as a loving daughter. Her desire to provide families with better care spurred her to create and develop SarahCare Adult Day Centers.

We call our philosophy of care the SarahCare Way. While we pride ourselves on the quality of our care, the SarahCare Way sees beyond your loved one’s needs to understand them as a unique individual. We share in the richness of their personal life and treasure their contribution to the life of our centers.
