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.
Home care services are only one of the pieces needed for seniors to gracefully age in place. There are many services and programs that are low-cost or free, that enable seniors to enjoy an independent lifestyle in the comfort of their own home, such as help with home modifications, meal delivery services, and more. Below, we’ve compiled a few of the most helpful resources in Haverhill:
| Resource | Contact | Address | Service |
|---|---|---|---|
| Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) | (978) 825-7300 | 45 Congress Street, Suite 4120, Salem, MA 01970 | Low-income seniors in Haverhill can apply for assistance from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). This federally mandated program is administered by local Department of Transitional Assistance (DTA) offices. SNAP benefits can be used to purchase food products at stores and some farmers’ markets. If seniors pass the financial and non-financial eligibility requirements, they receive a benefits card with their benefits loaded. Call the program directly for more information. |
| Right at Home | (978) 373-8010 | 350 Main Street, Haverhill, MA 01830 | Haverhill seniors who need rides to errands or medical appointments can call Right at Home. Caregivers provide transportation and keep seniors safe during transit. As well as van services to the grocery or drug store, seniors can try Right at Home’s ridesharing service, which uses Lyft to get seniors where they need to go. |
| Action, Inc. | (978) 283-7874 | 180 Main Street, Gloucester, MA 01930 | Based in Gloucester, Action Inc. serves Haverhill and all of Essex County, as well as Rockport, Ipswich and Manchester counties. It offers low-income seniors and residents financial assistance with the following services: |
| Homestead Exemptions for Property Tax | (978) 557-1900 | Northern Essex Registry of Deeds, 354 Merrimack Street Suite 304 (C), Lawrence, MA 01843 | In Haverhill and throughout Massachusetts, seniors can apply for property tax exemptions under the state’s homestead legislation. The state exempts $125,000 to $500,000, depending on the assessed value of the home and other factors. Seniors must currently live in the homestead property and work with local governments to determine their eligibility. |
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.
