The K.T. Wiedemann Adult Learning Center provides learning opportunities which foster independence and personal growth for adults with disabilities.
Regularly scheduled Person Centered Support Plan meetings bring the customer, family, guardian, case manager, and staff together to review and develop preferred activities and classes.
Activities at the Adult Learning Center include:
The Learning Center offers activities to develop and practice skills in communication, leisure and recreation, social skills, and functional life skills such as telling time, money recognition and safety awareness.
Activities and discussions are held to familiarize customers
with personal rights and responsibilities.
Classroom group activities include nutrition planning, shopping, and preparation of simple meals and snacks.
Classroom computers connected to the Internet as well as numerous educational and recreational programs are available for instruction and customer use.
A licensed physical therapist visits and observes customers twice a month. At the request of a customer’s physician, the PT evaluates the customer and writes an individual exercise and maintenance plan to be implemented by a certified restorative aide. Activities might include passive range of motion, parallel bars, stationary bicycle, treadmill or stretching, to name a few. These maintenance level activities can also be practiced at home. Customers are also encouraged to participate as fully as they desire in community outings and walks.
The CPRF campus includes a beautiful patio and garden area landscaped by the Sedgwick County Master Gardeners and Adult Day Services customers. There are trees of all shapes and sizes, bushes, flowers, vines and vegetables. Customers enjoy participating in gardening activities as well as spending time relaxing and watching birds, bugs and butterflies wander throughout the garden.
