Many primary caregivers and families of adults with Alzheimer's disease or dementia often look for help caring for their loved one, and wish to turn to a safe, secure, reputable adult day care center. The selection process should determine if the adult day care center offers the appropriate services and activities to meet the specific needs of the participant, while also maintaining a pleasant environment with a cheerful facility and a friendly staff. Other important criteria include cost, hours of operation, wheelchair accessibility, transportation services, staff/participant ratio, and staff credentials. It is also crucial to check references, and to tour the facility to gauge the comfort level. Assistance in the adult day care center selection process can be found online at a variety of resources.
