CalAIM Santa Clara offers enhanced care management. Individuals will be assigned a lead Care Manager who will help coordinate transition out of a skilled nursing facility into a home-like environment. The Care Manager will assist with finding and applying for housing, finding doctors and scheduling appointments, understanding prescription drug medications, getting follow-up services after hospital discharge, setting up transportation, finding and applying for food, and connecting the individual to other community programs and services.
This program began as a pilot through Whole Person Care and then transitioned into CalAIM Santa Clara in 2022. Medi-Cal delivery changed to an Enhanced Care Management model with offerings for community supports in order to prioritize whole person care and healthy living.
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.
