Staff Outreach Workers from the Orleans Council on Aging are available to visit you at home to assess your safety and ability to remain there. Both Sue Beyle and Mary Ellen Lavenberg have thorough knowledge of the myriad programs that benefit seniors. Learn which ones are appropriate for you so you benefit from them.
A resource file of local home health aides is maintained in the Outreach Department. All workers have been CORI (Criminal Offense Record Investigation) checked and have worked for other local residents. It is advisable to refer to the Outreach Program for referrals rather than relying on information from neighbors so you have the best person for your particular needs.
