A “dependent” adult is any person 18 through 64 years of age who has physical or mental limitations which restrict his/her ability to carry out normal activities. An “elder” adult is any person 65 years old and older.
Participation: Participation is voluntary in APS activities. The client has the right to refuse services, if s/he so chooses. Clients are not charged for services.
