On Lok Senior Health
On Lok SeniorHealth centers provide a welcoming, safe place for our members to receive outstanding healthcare services, as well as to socialize and make new friends. Each center gives seniors easy access to healthcare services within their nearby communities. All of our centers have a fully operating clinic, complete with exam and treatment rooms, and a rehabilitation gym designed to help our members regain and maintain functional independence.
In addition to the clinical facility, our day centers serve as pleasant meeting places, providing excellent opportunities for social interaction and engaging activities. We offer many group recreational activities, such as art classes, ethnic and cultural activities, and board/card games, as well as group outings to events such as trips to a Giants' games or visits to local museums. We also offer a noon meal service, under the direction of our dietitians, that gives our members an opportunity to socialize and the nutrition they need to maintain a healthy diet.
On Lok SeniorHealth currently has seven operating centers located in San Francisco. The Fremont Center is On Lok SeniorHealth's newest location. Opened in 2002, the center shares space on the beautifully landscaped grounds of the Convent of the Sisters of the Holy Family. The relationship between the Sisters and On Lok is long standing. The land for On Lok House, at 1441 Powell Street in San Francisco, was purchased from the Sisters in the 1970s. They had operated a child care center at this location for many decades. Now, the Fremont Center cares for some of the original Sisters who worked at the child care center in San Francisco many years ago.
At first, the Fremont center primarily served the Sisters of the Holy Family and the Dominican Sisters of Mission San Jose. This cozy center has now opened its doors to residents of Fremont as space allows. With a healthcare clinic, transportation and the senior daycare center, the Fremont center offers a comprehensive healthcare program. In addition to English, several staff members are fluent in Tagalog.
