Fresno County ADHC Facility Will Shut Down This Week

Saint Agnes Adult Day Health Center in Fresno County will close on Friday. Officials say the closure stems from the elimination of the program as a benefit under Medi-Cal, California's Medicaid program, in the state budget. Saint Agnes is one of 17 adult day health care centers in the state that have shuttered this year. Without Medi-Cal funding, more of the state's 300 ADHC centers are expected to close.
