The family caregivers are free to go to their jobs or otherwise get on with life, secure in the knowledge that their loved ones are cared for and happy during the day.
Senior adult day care is a collective term used to describe public and private services designed to provide a safe and pleasant environment for people who have reached the status of senior citizens. Along with activities and programs operated by private institutions such as churches or other houses of faith, adult day care centers are often operated by cities and towns around the world. The range of care provided often depends on the resources of the sponsoring entity and any legal guidelines that apply to the particular jurisdiction.
