AGING SERVICES

AGING SERVICES Aging services seeks to enhance the lives of older adults by helping them maintain as much independence as possible.

Each year, approximately 3,000 older adults are matched with the resources needed to ensure their continued independence. The first step to continued independence for you or your caregiver may be speaking with Case Management. A case manager will match your needs with community resources, assess and coordinate options and develop an individual care plan that will allow for ongoing support.

Additionally, a case manager will be able to assist with Elder Abuse Intervention. Older adults can be especially vulnerable to financial exploitation or self neglect. Our elder abuse specialist can help intervene and find necessary supports and services.

Respite Program The Respite Program is designed to alleviate some of the stress that the primary caregiver may experience.

This is an in-home care option. A respite provider can provide temporary relief by completing minor tasks the caregiver would otherwise coordinate on their own.

Some of these tasks may include meal prep, providing companionship, light housekeeping, personal care and offering medication reminders.

Providers are screened in compliance with the State of Iowa’s criminal records investigation check to ensure the safety of everyone. After the family’s needs are assessed, they are matched with a compatible provider. Hourly rates and schedules are determined by the family and the provider. Financial assistance may be available for eligible families.

Home Repair Services Small home repairs can help maintain and improve the patient’s home function and safety.

A combination of contractors and volunteers may assist with the following needs: • Minor home repairs
