Frequently Asked Questions About
Adult Day Care in Oldsmar, FL

TLC is built around keeping members active, social, and genuinely engaged every single day. Our members enjoy a rotating schedule of activities that includes games, music, art projects, exercise, themed events, cooking demonstrations, gardening, holiday celebrations, and plenty of time connecting with friends. Every day includes a hot, nutritious meal and snacks. We also incorporate programs designed to support cognitive engagement, balance, and mobility. The environment always feels more like a social club than a care facility. One family put it best: "It is like they go to a party every day." Our activity calendar is updated monthly. Ask us to see a sample schedule when you call or visit.

Adult day care is a licensed, professionally staffed program where older adults and adults living with conditions like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, stroke, or other health challenges come during the day for social activities, therapeutic programs, meals, and supervised care. They return home in the evening. It is the right choice if your loved one would benefit from structured social engagement, if they are spending too much time alone or becoming isolated, if you are concerned about their safety or cognitive stimulation during the day, or if you as a caregiver need time to work, rest, or attend to your own responsibilities. TLC serves adults throughout the Oldsmar, Pinellas, Pasco, and Hillsborough County area. If you are not sure whether it is the right fit, our free VIP Guest Day lets your loved one experience a day at TLC before any commitment is made.

Members typically arrive in the morning and are greeted by our staff team. The day starts with breakfast and morning activities, then flows through a structured schedule that includes exercise or movement, group programs, social time, a hot lunch, afternoon activities, and additional engagement before departure. No two weeks are exactly alike because our calendar rotates to keep things fresh and engaging. The environment is warm, structured, and designed to feel social rather than clinical. Members build friendships, look forward to coming, and often ask about what is happening the next day. Caregivers tell us their loved ones are happier, more alert, and more communicative since joining TLC. We are happy to share a sample weekly schedule. Just ask when you call or visit.

Yes. TLC's Memory Support Program is specifically designed for individuals living with Alzheimer's disease, dementia, and related memory conditions. Our structured daily routine, trained staff, and supervised environment provide a safe and stimulating setting that supports cognitive engagement and reduces anxiety.

When their loved one knows what to expect each day, it makes a real difference for the entire family. If your loved one has received a diagnosis or you are starting to notice signs of memory change, give us a call at (813) 510-4000. Someone on our team will take the time to answer your questions and help you figure out if TLC is the right fit.

Adult day care is the most affordable professional care option available for keeping your loved one at home. At TLC, our rates are a full day at $105 to $115 and a half day at $85. To put that in perspective, professional in-home care for the same number of hours typically costs $200 or more per day, and assisted living facilities in the Tampa Bay area average over $4,000 per month. Adult day care gives your loved one professional supervised care and a full social program at a fraction of those costs. We also accept Medicaid LTC, VA Aid and Attendance benefits, Area Agency on Aging program funding, and most private long-term care insurance policies, which can significantly reduce or eliminate your out-of-pocket cost.
