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 Dublin:
| Resource | Contact | Address | Service |
|---|---|---|---|
| DCSC Organization | (614) 410-4559 | 5600 Post Road, Dublin, OH 43017 | The DCSC Organization offers membership to anyone 55 or older in and around Dublin and membership includes access to a whole menu of social, recreational and other activities throughout the year. The annual dues for entry are extremely modest at $15 for Dublin City residents and $21 for nonresidents; paying these opens access to all of the organization’s activity rosters. Activities organized by the DCSC include Movie Madness nights at a local theater, free box lunch days for members and seasonal park exploration group outings. Personal safety courses for seniors and elderly women are also offered by the DCSC. |
| Syntero Programs for Older Adults | (614) 889-5722 | 5600 299 Cramer Creek Court, Dublin, Ohio 43017 | The charitable nonprofit organization Syntero delivers a whole range of support and assistance services for elderly adults throughout Dublin, Columbus and other nearby regions. The overall scope of the organization’s programs attempts to help the elderly and their caregivers find resources for physical and mental health issues they face. Syntero’s services in this direction include an outpatient mental health and substance abuse counseling program for those 60 or older and a caregiver consultation program for caregivers of seniors. There are also outreach and one-on-one volunteer programs that assist seniors with daily living difficulties in their homes. |
| COAAA National Family Caregiver Support Program | (614) 645-7250 | 3776 S High St, Columbus, OH 43207 | The Central Ohio Area Agency on Aging (COAAA) facilitates the nationally funded Family Caregiver Support Program, which is aimed at helping caregivers of elderly adults in coping with their responsibilities for their older family members. Aside from offering counseling sessions and workshops on eldercare issues to caregivers, this program also helps caregivers locate subsidies and sources of funding for care assistance through state and federal programs. It also can directly offer funds to caregivers for short periods of time if they’re eligible. |
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.
