A Senior Day-Care Center similar to daycare facilities that allows aging seniors to enjoy daytime living when their adult children are working and return home after office hours will enable a more harmonious family life between the aging parents and their adult children. In this research, the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) theory is applied to calculate the weight of various relevant factors that affect the site selection of a proposed Senior Day-Care Center based on responses from experts to questionnaires so that important affecting factors can be identified. The Extension Excellence Evaluation Method (EM) was then used to select, compare and analyze several appropriate sites. The evaluation model comprises four facets including transportation, community environment, living functions and public facilities. The research results reveal that either the AHP or the EM method is capable of offering better answers.
