San Francisco Adult Day Services

Adult day services are low-cost, licensed alternatives to nursing homes that enable you or your loved one to live at home and to lead a more active, independent life. Programs provide stimulating activities in safe and therapeutic environments, and allow participants to live fuller, healthier, more active lives.

Adult day services offer health care and therapies as needed in warm, welcoming environments with daily noon meals, plus social, recreational and creative activities and the opportunity to make new friends.

The Access to Care Initiative has two major components, advocacy and outreach. The outreach component involves educating case managers, medical social workers, physicians, and others working in non-profit, healthcare, and governmental settings about the importance of ADS and how to refer patients/clients to ADS centers. The advocacy component involves identifying and addressing local and state-level system-related barriers to access to ADS for aging adults and people with disabilities. Made possible through the generous support of The San Francisco Foundation, The California Endowment and United Way Bay Area.

CUTS MAY BE REVERSED, AT LEAST PARTIALLY - The Senate Budget Committee and Assembly Budget Subcommittee #1 held conccurrent hearings on Friday, May 30 to close our significant Medi-Cal and Social Services Item. In a small but significant victory for our advocacy efforts, the Assembly resotred the ADHC Medi-Cal rate by just under 5% and the full Senate Budget Committee restored all provider rates by 5%. This means that the ADHC and other provider rate issues will continue to be "in play" during the budget conference committee process, and will not be finalized until later this summer.
