Adult day services (ADS) are the leading provider of community-based care for persons with dementia and their caregivers. While the provision of caregiver respite is well-documented, little is known about the provision of other forms of dementia caregiver support. Logistic regression analyses of ADS providers (N = 297) in the MetLife Study indicated that the number of hours of social work support was a significant predictor of case management services, while nonprofit status was a significant predictor of caregiver education and support groups. These findings have implications for practice and policy related to this growing provider of dementia services.
成人日托服务（ADS）是为痴呆症患者及其照料者提供社区护理的主要机构。虽然照料者喘息服务的提供有充分记录，但对于其他形式的痴呆症照料者支持的提供情况却知之甚少。大都会人寿研究中对ADS提供者（N = 297）的逻辑回归分析表明，社会工作支持的小时数是个案管理服务的重要预测指标，而非营利性地位是照料者教育和支持小组的重要预测指标。这些发现对与这一日益增长的痴呆症服务提供者相关的实践和政策具有启示意义。
