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 Worcester:
| Resource | Contact | Address | Service |
|---|---|---|---|
| Worcester Senior Center | (508) 799-1232 | 128 Providence Street, Worcester, MA 01604 | The Worcester Senior Center is a large and well-equipped location that offers numerous social, recreational and support services for elderly residents of Worcester. This particular facility, partly funded by the local government delivers programs for health and wellness screenings and exercise, nutritious hot lunches via reservation and facilities for classes in many skills such as crafts, computing and the arts. The Center also helps seniors with transportation and offers advocacy on their behalf. Seniors who want to unwind in a safe and comfortable space can use the center’s library, games room, gardens and other recreational spaces too. |
| City of Worcester Health and Human Services Department | (508) 799-8486 | City Hall Room 101455 Main Street, Worcester, MA 01608 | The Health and Human Services section of the city of Worcester coordinates most of the municipal government’s support services for senior citizens. It happens to provide a number of services to the elderly through its different programs. Some of the city’s support services for elders include home-delivered meals and group meals through its senior center. Additionally, the city may provide limited support for bill and utility payments to elderly residents. Free legal aid services are also available as well as AARP tax assistance. |
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – oftentimes 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.
