How can homebound seniors or disabled people living alone find help with housekeeping, cooking, bathing, shopping and repair work in and around their homes?
A. Contact an Information Specialist at the Council on Aging. Our experts help seniors determine if they are eligible for government programs that provide homemaker and personal care services. These specialists will also offer information and referrals to home care agencies, volunteer organizations and emergency resources to meet these important needs. Contact the Council on Aging: (408) 296-8290.
