About San Jose Home

A Haven for Senior Citizens

San Jose Home presents a beautiful haven for families concerned about their elderly parents living alone, by offering assisted living, comprehensive personal care addressing their physical, spiritual, and emotional needs. The contemporary economic and social environment often necessitates dual-income households, compelling both spouses to work. This situation can lead to concerns regarding the safety, security, and well-being of elderly parents in the absence of their children. San Jose Home provides a perfect solution for these families, offering a secure, comfortable, and homely atmosphere combined with personalized care. The necessity for such care becomes even more pronounced for elderly individuals who do not receive adequate attention due to various reasons, including poverty, homelessness, insufficient income, and the absence of their children during critical times. At San Jose Home, the assisted living facilities and compassionate care enables the senior citizens to overcome loneliness, insecurity, and health issues, attain peace and happiness with confidence. San Jose Home, managed by the Assisi Sisters of Mary Immaculate, is committed to supporting the senior citizens a secure, safe and comfortable living environment, caring for all their needs. The home's mission is to provide a nurturing and secure haven for the elderly, thereby fostering an atmosphere of dignity, respect, and comprehensive care for all residents, regardless of their social or economic status
