Adult day services -- also called adult daycare -- are programs that offer activities (in a social model) or basic health services (in a medical model) to seniors who need supervised care. Adult day programs usually cost $25 to $70 per day or more, depending on the location and services provided. Many offer services on a sliding fee scale.
