Area Agency On Aging

Assisted living bridges the gap between independent living and nursing home care by providing services in certified residential care facilities to delay or prevent nursing facility placement. The program promotes aging in place by supporting consumer desire for independence, choice and privacy. Assisted living combines a home-like setting with personal support services to provide more intensive care than is available through home care services. Assisted living facilities vary considerably, but most provide personal care, meals, housekeeping, laundry, transportation, and social activities.

The other program services that are provided include: daily meal programs adult day care, homemaker, personal care, health screening, transportation, chore, home repair, and case management.
