Questions to ask when you tour

    With 120 licensed spots, ask how a typical day is structured and what activities or therapeutic programming are offered to participants.

  2. Current enrollment and availability

    The program is licensed for 120 participants — ask how many are currently enrolled and whether there is a waitlist or intake process.

  3. Transportation to and from the program

    Adult day programs vary widely on transportation; ask whether the program arranges pickup and drop-off or whether families are responsible.

  4. Staffing ratios on a typical day

    Ask how many staff members are on the floor per participant, and whether that ratio changes on high-enrollment days.
