Choosing day care

A day care service is a place you go to for part of the day, for company, activities and support, and then go home. Adult day care is registered with the regulator in Scotland and Northern Ireland. In England and Wales day centres are not registered with the regulator, so they are not listed here.

Things to check

  • Ask what a typical day is like, which activities are offered and who they are for.
  • Ask about transport, opening days and hours, and what happens if you cannot attend.
  • Ask how staff look after medicines, meals and personal care during the day.
  • Read the latest RQIA report, and visit for a day before you decide.

Whoever ends up paying, you can ask your local Health and Social Care Trust for an assessment of what help you need. Our guide explains what to expect and what to ask.
