ResourceContactService
Mercer County Area Agency on Aging(724) 662-6222The Mercer County Area Agency on Aging is a source of help for seniors in many ways. For example, it can dispatch the Long-Term Care Ombudsman to seniors with concerns about quality standards within their assisted living communities. It can also refer seniors to attorneys who provide free legal advice and representation and connect volunteers with nonprofits who rely on their help. The agency also manages the Shenango Valley Senior Community Center in Hermitage.
Mercer County Veterans Affairs(724) 662-7511U.S. military veterans, their spouses and dependents unsure of the benefits they can claim can get help from officers at Mercer County Veterans Affairs. The officers identify the local, state and federal benefits to which the vets are entitled and help them complete and submit their claims. They can also direct vets to local medical services, such as the Hermitage VA Outpatient Clinic, or the Butler VA Health Care System, if the local clinic doesn't have the facilities to treat their condition.
PA MEDI(800) 783-7067Pennsylvania Medicare Education and Decision Insight (PA MEDI) is a state-sponsored program for seniors with Medicare and those who need assistance before applying. The program's counselors provide information, advice, helping seniors understand the different Medicare plans and assisting with applications. The counselors may also advise seniors about private health care insurance, but they won't try to sell plans as their sole purpose is to support seniors. They can also assist when someone is denied a Medicare claim.
Pennsylvania Assistive Technology Foundation(888) 744-1938The Pennsylvania Assistive Technology Foundation is a nonprofit organization that provides financial loans for seniors and the disabled, so they can purchase necessary medical equipment. Devices can include computers and tablets, hearing aids, scooters, wheelchairs and modified vehicles.
