| Baltimore City Health Department In-Home Care Support | (410) 396-6006 | The Baltimore City Health Department offers a number of services to help seniors to safely age in place in their own homes. Services provided include assistance with everyday activities, family caregiver support, nurse monitoring, home-delivered meals and a senior companion program.

| Maryland Department of Aging | (866) 502-0560 | The Maryland Department of Aging offers a free wellness check program for resident seniors over the age of 65.

Volunteers call non-emergency services to check on the senior if neither the participant or the alternate contact number respond. |
