Ageing and Disability Services (ADS) protects and supports seniors and people with disabilities in Bermuda. We investigate reports of abuse or neglect, help people access the right care, and run programmes and events for the community.
Here's how we can help:
If you're worried a senior is being abused, neglected, or is unable to care for themselves, report it to us. We investigate every report and keep a register of cases.
If you or a family member need care, we can assess what's needed, help coordinate that care, and connect you to the right services. Contact us to get started.
Request accessibility advice - we provide advice to developers on accessibility requirements and best practices.
