Small Town Adult Day Services marked a milestone for adult day care access in southern Ohio with a ribbon cutting in New Richmond, supported by proclamations from John Husted and Dave Taylor recognizing the project’s community impact. Founded by Chris and Carla Penningtonal, also the owners of Small Town Home Health Solutions, the new center was developed in response to a clear need for adult day services across southern Ohio. Located at 1041 Old U.S. 52 B in New Richmond, the former Berry’s Pharmacy site has been renovated into a 6,000-square-foot adult day center expected to open in 2026.
Small Town Adult Day Services will offer social, enhanced, and intensive adult day services from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday, serving adults with a wide range of needs, including those with mild cognitive impairment. Services will include skilled nursing, therapy, caregiver respite, transportation, and nutritious meals that meet dietary requirements, along with accessible amenities such as wet rooms, a therapy space, and a quiet room. Registration is underway, with additional details available through the organization’s website.
