Adult day programs allow a person living with dementia to safely engage in activities and socialize with others. Adult day programs are different from senior centers because they offer more supervision and oversight. Some adult day programs can also help with medication management and medical needs while a person is in attendance. An adult day center is not only beneficial for people living with dementia, but they also provide respite for the caregiver. Oftentimes a person living with dementia may take a few weeks to adjust to the adult day center, but over time, many enjoy the activities and socialization.
