Homecoming Services
"Healing Continues When You Return Home"

The Homecoming Services Program assists frail seniors returning from hospital care to their central San Francisco homes. Often, seniors face this difficult transition alone. In contrast, we connect seniors with temporary and ongoing supportive services to ease them back to independent and healthy living.

The program's partners include San Francisco Senior Center (providing temporary case management), St. Francis Memorial Hospital and St. Mary's Medical Center (providing discharge planning), Little Brothers Friends of the Elderly (providing volunteer medical escorts), In-Home Supportive Services Public Authority (providing in-home personal assistance), and Project Open Hand (providing groceries). 

Services are free of charge to low-income clients and are based on a sliding scale, relative to income, for others. The services are made possible with the generous help of private donations from people like you and through public-sector donations from organizations such as the Richard and Rhoda Goldman Fund, The San Francisco Foundation, Wells Fargo, the San Francisco Department of Aging and Adult Services, and others.

For more information about Homecoming Services, please contact Kathleen M. Mayeda, MSW by email or by phone at (415) 923-4490.
