Home Safe is a program intended to support the safety and housing stability of individuals within Adult Protective Services (APS), which supports victims of abuse and/or neglect who are either adults age 60+ or adults ages 18-59 who are living with disabilities.
Home Safe provides intensive case management and other supportive services to individuals experiencing or at imminent risk of homelessness due to elder or dependent adult abuse, neglect, self-neglect or financial exploitation.
We are partnering with Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly (RCFE) across the Bay Area to find appropriate placements for vulnerable individuals needing RCFE levels of support.
By contracting with Institute on Aging, you may have access to a larger pool of client referrals, consistent reimbursement for services, and increased community exposure. We can also guide you through the process of connecting with additional support from state-funded insurance and waiver programs.

This program serving the community is funded by the City of San Francisco’s Department of Disability and Aging Services.
A hospital stay is just one part of the recovery journey—what comes next matters just as much.
When an aging adult is discharged, having the right home care support in place can make all the difference. From safety planning to emotional support, IOA Home Care helps families navigate the transition with confidence and compassion.

Caregiver Coaching Tip!
When emotions run high, staying calm can feel impossible—but it’s one of the most powerful tools you have. In this tip, Alex shares 3 practical ways to reset, reframe, and recharge as a caregiver.
🔹 Pause before reacting
🔹 Focus on the emotion, not the words
🔹 Make time for yourself & ask for help
Because caregiving is a marathon, not a sprint.
