From our modest beginnings in 1871 as a residential center for twelve seniors, the Jewish Home has grown to a nine-acre comprehensive senior care center with five distinct buildings, serving more than 375 residents with diverse care needs, and providing rehabilitation services to numerous others seeking short-term care stays.
For 138 years, the Jewish Home has ensured that Bay Area elderly have always had a place to call home.
