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 Quincy:
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Financial Planning for Seniors | (617) 376-1243 | The City of Quincy offers financial planning services for seniors once a month. There is no cost to the residents who take advantage of this service. Appointments should be made through the Department of Elder Services. |
| Taxpayer Exemptions | (617) 376-1170 | Seniors over the age of 65 may qualify for a $500 exemption on their property. They must meet income limits and property value limits. Those over the age of 70 may also qualify for another exemption of up to $295.23. Both of these tax assistance programs are administered by the Assessors Department. |
| Massachusetts Senior Action Council | (617) 284-1234 | The MSAC lets seniors stay involved in politics and policy to focus on community and policy issues that may affect them. It also allows seniors to socialize with dinners, entertainment programs and advice as well as helping them understand how policies may affect their futures. |
| Quincy Community Action Programs | (617) 479-8181 | The Quincy Community Action Programs offer a variety of assistance to help seniors and residents. Some of these programs include heating assistance, utility discounts, energy conservation and the repair and replacement of outdated heating units to help them keep warm. QCAP also works with seniors to upgrade homes with energy-saving measures. |
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.
