Rochester Presbyterian Home

Rochester Presbyterian Home is a nonprofit provider of memory care and assisted living services for elders in Monroe County, New York. Founded in 1925, the organisation operates three residences: Cottage Grove in North Chili, The Homestead in Rochester and Creekstone in Fairport. It employs over 160 professionals across its operations.

Services span assisted living, enhanced care and respite care for people living with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. Each residence provides both memory care and assisted living, drawing on the Eden Alternative methodology - an internationally recognised approach to elder care that emphasises a genuine home environment over an institutional setting. The organisation is certified by The Eden Alternative.

Its stated philosophy holds that elders direct their own care and define how life is lived. Residences are enriched with pets, visiting school children and extensive gardens to create a community setting. Rochester Presbyterian Home has been recognised as a Top Workplace by the Democrat and Chronicle and describes a commitment to a positive, supportive environment for both residents and employees.

The organisation was founded as a "safe and happy haven" for Presbyterians and remains a nonprofit. Further information is available at https://rph.org/.
