I am currently caring for an elder loved one who recently had a stroke. What should I do that would be beneficial for that elder in an adult day care setting?

Ask ahead what the ADC you are looking at offers for those with impairment from stroke. Some even have physical therapy, but most don't. Each center is different, so I'd see what their meal set-up is (does he need help eating?), and toileting policy is. Make sure they have activities that will interest him. ADC can be great to help people resist social isolation. I hope it works in this case,
Carol
