Located across from Crown State Memorial Beach in Alameda County, the 3.6-acre campus is set in a healing and serene environment. The 2.5-mile beach surrounding the campus is home to Crab Cove, a beautiful marine reserve in the San Francisco Bay.
The 3.6-acre campus will feature two main buildings:
- 100 permanent homes for seniors and
- A 50-bed Medical Respite Center with a health clinic and resource center.
The project design features attractive buildings and garden courtyards to foster health recovery and support residents to thrive in a caring community.
The first floor of the Medical Respite Center will feature the:
- Health Care Center
- Kitchen
- Dining area
- Resource center
The second floor will house medical respite patients, including a separate women’s sleeping area, and select private rooms for patients with infectious diseases or those receiving hospice care.
Medical Respite Center
The 50-bed Medical Respite Center will be among the first purpose-built recuperative care programs in the nation. The medical respite will serve an estimated 400 unhoused Alameda County residents annually facing complex health conditions.
The program will support patients to resolve acute medical conditions, stabilize chronic medical and behavioral health conditions, or receive hospice-level care. We will emphasize connecting departing patients with suitable housing placements and consistent primary care.
The Medical Respite Center will include a separate women’s sleeping area to foster a safe and welcoming environment for unhoused women. The respite will also provide select private rooms for patients with infectious conditions or individuals with advanced illnesses.
