The adult day care market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• In the past few years, there has been a significant increase in the adult day care market size. The market, which is set to expand from $16.94 billion in 2024 to $18.11 billion in 2025, is expected to achieve a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%.
Numerous factors have contributed to the growth observed during the historic period, including the escalating need for transitional care, the shift from traditional to nuclear family setups, a surge in demand for home and community-based care (HCBC), increased awareness surrounding elderly care, and the expansion of adult care centers.
The adult day care market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the coming years, the adult day care market size is anticipated to witness robust growth, reaching a value of $23.28 billion in 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5%.
This upturn during the projection period is credited to the rise in chronic illnesses, extended life expectancy, augmented geriatric population worldwide, growing need for effective healthcare services for the aged, and a surge in disorders such as dementia and Alzheimer's among seniors. Noteworthy trends over the forecast timeframe encompass technological progressions, advances in mental health treatments, innovative education for children, personalized care plans, and development in technologies specific to adult day care.
The surge in Alzheimer's disease cases is predicted to fuel the expansion of the adult day care market in the future. Alzheimer's disease, a developing neurological disorder, results in memory loss, cognitive deterioration, and eventually leads to an impaired ability to conduct everyday tasks. This disease is propelled by an array of biological factors, including the gathering of amyloid plaques and tau tangles, genetic tendencies, inflammatory reactions, and more, which collectively lead to progressive neuron and cognitive function loss. Adult day care services aid individuals with Alzheimer's by offering organized activities, expert care, and social engagement in a secure environment. This helps manage symptoms, enhance their life quality, and offer support to caregivers. As per the Office for National Statistics Census, a government agency from the UK, in May 2024, it was reported that in 2023, dementia and Alzheimer's disease were the primary causes of death in England and Wales, resulting in 66,876 casualties (11.5%), a rise from 65,967 deaths (11.4%) in 2022. Consequently, the escalating number of people with Alzheimer's disease is energizing the growth of the adult day care market.
