Rochester Presbyterian Home is a 100 bed adult home. Approximately 63 beds are dedicated to caring for those with early to middle stage dementia. The remaining 37 beds are dedicated to providing the best traditional adult care for those who can least afford to pay for these services.

R ochester Presbyterian Home is located at 256 Thurston Road, near Marlborough and Inglewood Drive. It is four minutes from the airport and three minutes from the Chili Avenue and Brooks Avenue exits of 390. Coming from the Brooks Ave. East exit off 390, you can easily turn left on Genesee Park Blvd. and then turn right (east) on Marlborough Ave. As you approach Thurston Road on Marlborough Drive you will be impressed with the stately "old Rochester charm" that this beautiful building and the surrounding grounds project. RPH is often a stop on the annual house tour of the 19th Ward. The back of our lot borders a public elementary school with an overlooking view of a large playground.
