Adult Day Care
101
It's usually challenging to admit you need help, especially if you've been a highly independent person used to caring for others all your life! And if you're the caregiver, it may be equally difficult to consider allowing "strangers" to care for your beloved family member.

As with any service, the best time to start exploring what's available is before you actually need it. According to ElderCare Online, you should seriously consider using adult day care when a senior:

  • can no longer structure his or her own daily activities
  • is isolated and desires companionship
  • can't be safely left alone at home
  • lives with someone who works outside the home or who is frequently away from home for other reasons
