As the PEH population ages and geriatric conditions increase, Medical Respite programs across the country may increasingly be asked to accept individuals with ADL support needs. This presentation will outline how the San Francisco Department of Public Health’s Respite program approached enhancing onsite ADL support, including considerations around licensing and funding. The session will provide an overview of how ADL support services look on the ground and will highlight challenges and lessons learned, with recommendations for how to collaboratively communicate with hospital and community partners.
