Senior Daycare  - There are over 3,000 senior day care centers in the United States. This number is growing rapidly as the demand is increasing. The concept of senior day care offers seniors an opportunity to socialize and be cared for while their family or other caregiver has the option of fulfilling other duties. Senior day care centers offer meals, group activities, and even medication management, if needed.

Some facilities include the option for health management by providing physicians who make regular visits for monitoring the health of the residents. Other facilities offer transportation to doctor's appointments rather than having a physician come to the day care site. This medical service gives family members the assurance that their senior will be cared for in their absence.

A good senior day care will provide a variety of support services including physical therapy, recreational therapy, crafts, and many other activities. Making seniors feel loved and appreciated should be the goal of all senior day cares. Activities such as live music and dancing opportunities encourage interaction and mobility. Many facilities include educational opportunities for seniors to enhance mental activity.
