What’s a New Name for Adult Day Care?
When I think of day care, I think of the place that I drop my child off in the morning. There has to be other, better names for this growing service. Any ideas?

It is a kind of hokey term. How about (just off the top of my head)
Adult Day Services
Geren-Care (like gerontology)
Gray Days
Silver Services

How about Adult Day Services?

Another term for it is adult day services. Because, let’s face it, many adult day care providers don’t just offer care. They offer transportation meals, educational activites and respite for participants’ loved ones.
