Adult Day Programs

Many seniors and older adults can continue to live in their own homes or with family if they have appropriate support services. For adults who require help with medication, healthy meals, or simply the social interaction that keeps life interesting, adult day programs are a wonderful addition to senior care. Day programs provide a safe, enjoyable environment, creative activities, exercise, and in some cases, on-site health services. An alternative to daily in-home care, these programs provide critical services for families who need to work but who also need care for a senior who may require attention throughout the day. IOA offers three Adult Day Programs for San Francisco seniors.
