Resources for Seniors' adult day centers, called Total Life Centers, have been serving Wake County
residents since 1978. Total Life Centers provide an essential alternative for families who want to keep
their older relative in the community as long as possible, but may not be able to provide 24-hour care.
Many family members are torn between the need to continue working, and the desire to care for their
loved one at home. Even when a full-time family caregiver is available, that person often desperately
needs a few hours each day for rest and to take care of essential needs, without concern about the safety
and well-being of their loved one.
Families often look first to home health care services, but quickly discover that Medicare and private
insurance provide little in the way of in-home care benefits, and very few subsidized services are
available. Yet the hard fact is that most of us are not in a position to afford the high cost of one-on-one
care in the home.
Adult day programs such as the Total Life Centers have come into existence to help fill this gap. Care is
warm, individualized, and non-institutional, yet costs are significantly less than for comparable hours of
one-on-one care. What do participants do all day long?
