adult daycare

Daytime elder center

Adult daycare is a supervised program providing daytime care and activities for elderly or disabled adults who cannot safely stay home alone.

Like childcare centers, they offer meals, social interaction, and structured activities while family caregivers work or take respite: Mom goes to adult daycare three days a week while I'm at the office.
