We all want to live in our own homes as we age. However, illness, injury, or chronic health conditions create significant challenges. IOA’s Ruth Ann Rosenberg Adult Day Health Center provides many of the services adults need to remain living at home. Our day program offers a fun, engaging, and social atmosphere, together with convenient on-site healthcare, support services, and transportation to and from your home. We also have specialized training and services to compassionately serve adults with frail physical health, mental health needs, and memory loss. Our care is consistently high, and backed by a solid reputation of more than 30 years providing adult day health care.

Respite For Caregivers

Caring for an older parent is a 24/7 responsibility. To maintain the spirit and quality of this care, caregivers and those they are loving need respite. ADHC provides a safe, caring place for seniors and disabled adults to spend a few hours a week outside the home. Creative activities stimulate the mind, as do conversations with staff and with other seniors. Birthday celebrations, meals together, exercise...we offer necessary support and care to elders and their families.

In 1975, Dr. Lawrence Feigenbaum spearheaded the initiative to provide frail adults with an alternative to nursing home placement. The Mount Zion Hospital Adult Day Health Center was born, the first community hospital to provide a program enabling people to receive the services they need while continuing to live at home. Incorporating in 1985 as a separate non-profit organization, ADHC became part of Institute on Aging, which has grown to become one of the Bay Area's largest providers of community-based services for seniors.
