Impact and Programs
Accomplishments
In 2022, Senior Community Services (SCS) served 16,319 older adults and informal (family & Friends) caregivers. SCS supported independence for older adults at-risk of long-term nursing home use, and/or spending down into Medical Assistance, through non-medical services including indoor and outdoor chores, home maintenance, homemaking, and care coordination. SCS empowered at-risk families and informal caregivers (i.e., friends and/or neighbors) through coaching, consultation, education, support groups, family meetings, memory cafes for those with dementia, and CareNextion.org, a free online and mobile app tool to organize care of a loved one. SCS connected community through Senior Centers, volunteers, resource assistance, and technology support and training.
