Abstract
Providence Health Care, Inc. is a skilled nursing and assisted living facility located in Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Indiana. This paper is a business plan for an adult day care center to be constructed on campus and run in conjunction with the other service offerings currently being provided by this facility. A review of the recent literature was conducted and care models in foreign countries were explored. Upon completion of a SWOT Analysis, opportunities were presented regarding how Providence could differentiate itself from the current adult day service market. Moreover, this plan includes the benefits of an adult day care setting for elders with cognitive decline and the costs for the initial construction and operation of this type of service.
