Memphis earned wage access provider helps New Albany adult day care staff access wages between pay cycles, enhancing employee support and daily care delivery.

NEW ALBANY, MS, UNITED STATES, April 28, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Express Wages, a financial technology company focused on earned wage access solutions, has partnered with Cook’s Adult Day Care in New Albany, Miss., to empower employees with the ability to tap into a portion of their earned wages, enhancing their ability to manage cash flow and meet unexpected expenses. The collaboration reflects Express Wages’ mission to ease the financial stress of workers living paycheck-to-paycheck by giving them faster, more flexible access to the wages they’ve already earned.

Cook’s Adult Day Care serves families in Union County and the surrounding communities by providing daytime support for seniors and others who benefit from nurturing, supervised care. With a trusted reputation built on promoting dignity and connection, the center focuses on creating a safe, engaging environment where participants can socialize, join outings and activities, and receive attentive care while maintaining a sense of independence. Partnering with Express Wages extends that same people-first approach to employees, offering a practical benefit that can help staff better navigate everyday expenses and financial emergencies.

Across adult day services, providers depend on reliable frontline teams who create safe, welcoming environments for participants and peace of mind for their families. At the same time, care staff often navigate emotionally and physically demanding responsibilities while balancing personal financial needs. By offering earned wage access, Cook’s Adult Day Care is adding a layer of support that can strengthen retention, reduce stress and help employees stay focused on the people in their care.

“We feel a special pride in supporting Cook’s Adult Day Care,” says Express Wages Founder and CEO Alfred Milan, “because we know their dedicated team serves with consistency and compassion. The financial flexibility Express Wages provides can make a meaningful difference in supporting that level of care. Earned wage access aligns naturally with Cook’s mission by strengthening continuity and quality of care for participants and their families.

Its platform offers employer-integrated on-demand pay solutions, providing financial relief to frontline workers. Prior to launching Express Wages, Milan built a 20-year track record of success in senior care and health care technology — scaling operations, capturing new markets and leading high-performing teams.

According to Bankrate’s 2025 Annual Emergency Savings Report, more than one-third of Americans had to tap their emergency savings in the last year, and nearly one in five had no emergency savings whatsoever. Express Wages’ plug-and-play solution empowers companies to provide their employees with immediate access to a portion of their earned wages before payday, helping them avoid high-interest predatory loans, credit card debt, overdraft fees and late payment penalties.
