Cost

The Adult Day Program at New Vista is funded by the Continuing Care Division of the Fraser Health Authority. This funding covers 15 to 18 clients per day. Adults eligible to receive benefits from the Continuing Care Program must pay a subsidized user fee of $6.00 per day to attend the program. We also accept adults who do not qualify for continuing care benefits. The cost of the program for these adults is not subsidized.

Transportation to New Vista is available through HandyDART or the New Vista bus, at a cost of $2.00 each way. The Adult Day Program operates Monday to Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The program does not operate on statutory holidays or weekends.
