Community services for aging in place

Community based aging in place services

Since your physical capabilities decline as you age, your need for aging in place services will increase as your likely to need assistance with things that you were once able to do yourself. Some of these things might be:

  • Transportation (to doctor appointments, social engagements, etc.)
  • Shopping (grocery, personal items, etc.)
  • Home maintenance (repairs, lawn care, etc.)
  • House cleaning
  • Personal care (bathing, dressing, etc.)
  • Cooking
  • Medical care


In most cases, there are people who can help you keep up with all the things that you might not be able to do (or, do safely). And, in some cases, you may be able to acquire some of these services for little-to-no cost, depending on your financial situation. In most every city there are agencies, civic groups, churches or others that provide needs-based services.
