Founded in 2005 by Dr. Wendell Nickell

 Dr. Wendell Nickell, a general surgeon, practiced in Salina from 1966 through 1991. He passed away in 2014. Dr. Nickell recognized an unmet need for caregiver daytime respite services while caring for his nurse anesthetist wife, who had Alzheimer’s disease.

Since its founding in 2005 by the late Dr. Wendell Nickell, Sunflower Adult Day Services has helped care for more than 300 families and participants by providing respite to their caregivers.

Clients may use our services from two to five days
each week, depending on their caregiver’s needs. 
We are open Monday – Friday
7:30 am – 5:30 pm

Your charitable donations allow
Sunflower Adult Day Services
to continue offering high quality
care for those with memory issues,
disabilities, and just needing to be included
in day to day activities.

Please consider donating to our non-profit today.

Caregivers need care too
