Margaret “Peg” Taylor was a pioneering nurse who inspired the founding of the Peg Taylor Center for Adult Day Health Care. Early in Peg’s distinguished career she recognized the value of providing support and rehabilitation to help both older and younger adults with health problems improve their quality of life.

Peg’s work continues today with the help of many wonderful people in our community. On behalf of those we serve, I would like to express our heartfelt appreciation for the hard work and caring of the members of Soroptimist International of Chico. Through generous support of the Peg Taylor Center’s nursing services, the members of Soroptimist International are ensuring that adults of all ages in our area coping with serious health problems have the care and attention they need.

We deeply appreciate Soroptimist International for all they do for those in need in our community.

The Peg Taylor Center for Adult Day Health Care is a wonderful experience. It is a nonprofit facility that provides so much more than health care. The staff is extraordinary in their stimulating, fun and varied program presentations, interesting activities, pleasant entertainment, and friendship to clients and their families. The regular needed medical monitoring by registered nurses and physical therapists allows clients to have their needs evaluated on a daily basis. A nutritious and delicious lunch is provided each day, Monday through Friday. Transportation is provided in specified circumstances. The cost of attending this amazing facility depends on one’s income.

My sister has been a client and friend of the Peg Taylor Center since 2005. Our family is eternally grateful for the care and concern that is given to her. Her health and well-being has improved dramatically with the help of the wonderful staff and program at the Peg Taylor Center.

Thank You Letter

Dear Cory & Staff,

Tom and I wanted to let you know how greatly we appreciate all you did for Uncle Don.

Tho I know at first Don was hesitant to to to “Grey Care”, once he adjusted he enjoyed your program more than I can say.

In the vane of returning the favor we would like to help others to appreciate your program. Maybe this small donation can help transport some of your clients that can’t afford transportation. Of course, if there is some other area where the money can be more useful, please feel free to use it where the clients can be most helped. (Does this make sense?)

Again, thank you so much for making my Uncle Don’s life better.

Sincerely,

Dayle Tuke
