Adult Day Care

Adult day care is a supervised, structured daytime environment designed to support other senior housing arrangements. Adult day care provides opportunities for socialization, recreation and activities outside of the home environment. Services and activities can be selected based on the needs and interests of the participant and may include meals, health related programs and transportation to the facility. Short term or flexible hours are available to allow respite opportunities for care providers.
