Senior Community Set for SAGECare Certification

The Lodge at Truitt Homestead is in the process of becoming the first senior living community in Delaware to achieve LGBTQ Cultural Competency Certification. It’s on its way to becoming Platinum-certified by SAGECare, an LGBTQ senior advocacy group and part of the nation’s largest and oldest organization dedicated to improving the lives of LGBTQ older adults.


Management at the community and corporate level recently took the first step toward becoming SAGECare certified by attending online and virtual cultural competency training, provided by one of SAGECare’s expert trainers. 


For more information on The Lodge at Truitt Homestead visit truittlodge.com or call 302-232-6372. The community is located at 36233 Farm Lane in Rehoboth. ▼
