Our History
Nestled among the pine trees near the mouth of Ogden Canyon resides our beautiful, resort-like facility. Formally known as Edgewood Reception Center, the building we now call DayBreak Senior Services has a history rich with love and happy memories. If you attended a wedding in Northern Utah several decades ago, you likely attended one at Edgewood. Since 1965, over 5,000 weddings have been hosted here. As you walk through the doors, you’ll notice photos of beautiful brides and their handsome grooms decorating our walls. Amazingly, some of our current participants were even married here! While the fashion trends may have changed since the days weddings were hosted here, it still remains a place where happy memories are made.
Our People
When DayBreak founders, Jamie and John Larsson, first saw the words “Adult Day Care” they were instantly intrigued. After researching the purpose, they immediately recalled their own experiences witnessing family and friends struggle to care for their loved ones. They recognized there were little to no options for an affordable senior day care in Utah but discovered there was a significant need for this unique service. From there – DayBreak was born. All DayBreak staff consists of trained CNA’s dedicated to providing a safe and healthy environment for our participants. Our team specializes in caring for those affected by isolation/depression, frailty and physical dependence, dementia, Alzheimer’s, memory impairment, strokes, Parkinson’s Disease and chronic illness. Additionally, DayBreak staff can assist with medication administration, toileting/incontinence care and grooming. We value the personal and unique relationships we are able to develop with each of our participants and their caregivers. We’ll be there with you before, during and after your caregiving journey and can assist with information and referrals for additional, necessary support. From your first visit, you’re family at DayBreak.
