Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 10 page business plan for an adult day care facility. Adult day care is still uncommon, and most existing facilities are in areas of moderate or large population, leaving the rural areas without the option of adult day care. As the population ages, the issue will become even more critical than it is at present. Budgetary constraints as well as quality of life issues work together to keep senior adults out of nursing homes for as long as possible, but many need interim care that either cannot be found in the local area or is too costly for many seniors or their families to afford. This is a business plan to establish an adult day care facility in Moulton, Alabama, a small town in rural northern Alabama and one that currently is not served by such a facility. Includes financials. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

set her up in an assisted living situation at home or in a seniors community ... Mehls said she is a prime example of the way most families learn about
adult day care -- they have nowhere else to turn" (Truman, 2002; p. ITEM02145151). At the Almost Family facility in which Mehls enrolled her mother, the daily visitors suffer
