Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
Older adults in Hollywood receive various kinds of assistance from the programs and organizations in the following chart. Some help seniors find ways of paying for services, while others offer their services for free.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Area Agency on Aging (AAA) of Broward County | (954) 745-9779 | Broward County's AAA serves Hollywood-area seniors with food programs, home repair assistance, benefits counseling and other help navigating services for older adults. It also offers help for primary caregivers through both respite care coverage and mental health support groups. |
| Florida Senior Homestead Exemption | (305) 468-5900 | The state of Florida offers all its homeowners a homestead exemption that excludes at least the first $25,000 of their home's value in property tax calculations. Homeowners 65 years of age and older who make less than $20,000 a year qualify for an additional homestead exemption of up to $25,000. |
| Florida Alliance for Assistive Services & Technology (FAAST) | (305) 243-5706 | This nonprofit organization makes mobility, safety, communication and other assistive devices available to all Florida residents through no-cost short-term loans. FAAST maintains an in-person demonstration center in Miami where seniors can see devices in action and get trained on their use. |
| Broward Legal Aid | (954) 765-8955 | This law firm provides advice and other legal services that can help seniors with family law and housing law issues, claiming veterans' benefits, understanding their rights surrounding advance directives and estate planning and other elements of elder law. |

The organization also runs a related Friendly Visitors Program designed to help homebound seniors make and maintain social connections in their community. |
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
