What you need to know about Adult Day Care | Ozzy Herrera

In this episode, we sit down with Ozzy Herrera, owner of Social Center Adult Daycare in Hialeah, Florida, for an in-depth conversation about adult day services, senior mental health, and the real challenges families face when caring for aging loved ones while navigating Medicaid, long-term care, and the healthcare system. Ozzy breaks down why so many adult daycares fall short, what families should look for when choosing a center, and the biggest red flags: from poor cleanliness and weak programming to lack of proper support for seniors who need real assistance. We also explore how adult daycare can serve as a critical “first step” in the continuum of care, helping seniors stay active, social, and supported before assisted living becomes necessary. You’ll also learn why Ozzy built Social Center differently, by focusing on caregivers and family decision-makers, using social media to educate the community, and designing structured daily programs that go far beyond bingo and dominoes. Plus, we dive into how the Medicaid waiver process works, the difference between Medicare and Medicaid, and why early planning can prevent families from scrambling during a crisis. This conversation is essential for families navigating adult daycare options, Alzheimer’s and dementia support, senior mental health, and long-term care planning, especially for those who want a clear, honest guidance from someone doing it the right way.
