Alameda offers its seniors a wide range of free and subsidized resources, enabling them to live more fruitful lives in the city. Below are a few resources that can help with medical care, low-cost transportation, dealing with care quality issues and helping out in the community.
Resource | Contact | Service |
---|---|---|
Long-Term Care Ombudsman | (510) 577-1900 | The Long-Term Care Ombudsman advocates for seniors residing in assisted living communities and other types of senior care. It’s a free service managed by the Alameda County Area Agency on Aging. Ombudsmen regularly visit assisted living facilities to conduct basic inspections and ensure seniors are aware of their rights. If a resident, their family or a third party makes a complaint, the ombudsman will investigate and pursue a resolution with the facility’s manager. Seniors comparing assisted living facilities as potential new homes can request information about them from the ombudsman, such as their inspection reports. |
Alameda County Social Services Agency | (510) 271-9100 | Alameda County Social Services Agency is a multi-resource organization that focuses on enhancing the social and economic well-being of all age groups in the county. Seniors can call to get information about several resources, such as cooling centers set up during periods of extreme heat, the office of the Public Administrator to discuss wills and estates and multiple transportation options across the county. |
San Francisco VA Medical Center | (415) 221-4810 | The VA Medical Center provides many services for veterans. These include dental care, geriatric teaching programs, rehab following cardiac arrest and mental health support. There are also numerous clinics near Alameda, such as the Oakland Outpatient Clinic and the Fremont VA Clinic. It’s strongly recommended that vets call before visiting clinics as walk-in appointments aren’t available. |
ReCares Medical Equipment Reuse | (510) 251-2273 | ReCares is a nonprofit organization that accepts donations of usable medical equipment to pass on to low-income residents of Alameda, including seniors. Some items, such as commodes and front-wheel walkers, are always available. However, other items, such as wheelchairs and walkers with seats, can be more difficult to acquire, although they are provided when available. The organization operates from three sites based in Oakland, San Francisco and Marin County. |
Alameda-area assisted living communities must adhere to the comprehensive set of state laws and regulations that all assisted living communities in California are required to follow. Visit our Assisted Living in California page for more information about these laws.
