In-home Care

 

At Senior Services, we are committed to helping people live independently longer. For some families, finding in-home, long-term care services is the key to helping their senior loved ones continue living at home. Whether you need homemakers, personal care aides or adult day care services, you can get the long-term assistance and support you need by calling one of our Intake Specialists at 757-461-9481.

  • Adult Day Care
    If you work while caring for a loved one, Senior Services can put you in touch with a licensed Adult Day Care Center. Here, seniors age 60 and over participate in a variety of fun group activities such as Bingo, a light exercise program or a current events discussion, plus lunch. The centers, open Monday through Friday, also offer health, social and support services if you need them.

    Fee: A sliding fee scale makes use of the Adult Day Care Centers affordable for most families. Please contact the centers directly for information.

  • Home-delivered Meals
    There’s nothing like a hot, delicious meal! Through our Home-delivered Meals program, we deliver one mid-day meal per day for seniors age 60 and over who are restricted to their homes due to illness or disability. We also provide boxed meals that you can put aside in the event of inclement weather conditions or emergencies.

    Fee: Routes and fees may vary.

    To see if you qualify for home-delivered meals, call one of our Intake Specialists at 757-461-9481.

     

  • Homemaker
    If you need help around the house during a period of illness or recovery, you can take advantage of our Homemaker Program. We’ll connect you to a licensed professional who can help with such tasks as light housekeeping or preparing a meal. This service is available Monday through Friday.

    Fee: The full cost is $11 per hour. You may pay less depending on your income. The minimum fee is $20 a month.

  • Personal Care
    After an illness or during a period of convalescence, our Personal Care Program can help you with hair care, bathing, food preparation, feeding – and other self-care tasks. Our Care Coordinators will assess your condition, help you develop a care plan and arrange for the services through a licensed home health agency.

    Fee: The full cost is $12 per hour. You may pay less depending on your income. The minimum fee is $20 a month.

  • Senior Companions
    Do you know of someone who needs a friend? Senior Services administers a Senior Companion Program that partners senior volunteers with homebound adults in need of companionship and a helping hand. In addition to paying a friendly visit, the companions often perform a variety of tasks, such as shopping for groceries, writing a letter or fixing a light meal. In some cases, the Senior Companion plays a vital role in the life of their client, providing a much-needed link from the community to that home.

    No fee: This service is free to those who need assistance.

    If you need this service, or are interested in becoming a Senior Companion, call the Senior Companion Coordinator at 757-461-9481.
