Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nursing homes are designed for people who need assistance with basic ADLs when families cannot provide care. Day-care programs are typically for older adults who are still independent but need some social and medical assistance during the day. Assisted-living facilities and continuing-care retirement communities are designed for more independent older adults who do not need extensive medical or personal care.
