Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 18, September 24, 2024
A. An adult day care program must be self-contained with its own staff and separate area.
B. Depending on the nature of other activities in the building, it may or may not be appropriate for day care participants to share in them on a planned basis. Such involvement must be as part of the day care program plan and must be supervised by a day care staff member, i.e., senior center crafts and social events and lunch at a congregate meal site.
C. It is not appropriate for persons from other activity groups in the building to move through the day care area at will or to attend day care activities on an informal basis. The day care program is in a sense a "closed" program in that participation is open only to persons enrolled in the program and to visitors on a planned basis.
