Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
The Grayslake region has several programs and nonprofit organizations that support older adults who live at home. The following table highlights top resources for seniors to help them find emotional support and practical services to supplement paid home care. These resources can also help older adults connect with recreational programs in the community to help them avoid isolation and boredom.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Grayslake Senior Center | (847) 543-1041 | The Grayslake Senior Center offers an array of social and recreational activities to help older adults avoid loneliness and boredom. It hosts morning coffee and snacks, movie afternoons, book clubs, arts and crafts classes and table games. It also has a library with VHS and DVD movies available for rent. |
| AgeGuide | (630) 293-5990 | AgeGuide has a family caregiver program to support caregivers through education and respite services. The organization provides friendly visits and phone calls, nutrition services and transportation services exclusively for seniors. It also administers the state’s Community Care Program, which provides in-home care to those who qualify for nursing home placement. |
| Meals on Wheels of Northeastern Illinois | (847) 332-2678 | Meals on Wheels provides home-delivered noontime meals to housebound seniors Monday through Saturday. Clients receive two meals with each delivery, including a hot, ready-to-eat meal and a cold meal for dinner.

| Senior Homestead Exemption | (847) 377-2100 | Seniors aged 65 and over in Grayslake may be eligible for the Senior Homestead Exemption, which lowers the property’s assessed value by $8,000. Qualified seniors may also apply for the Low-Income Senior Freeze program, which helps to avoid significant property tax increases as a result of rising property values. |
| Catholic Charities | (847) 782-4000 | Catholic Charities has care coordinators who assess seniors’ needs and provide referrals for free or subsidized in-home services, which may help seniors remain in their homes. The charity also provides respite for family caregivers, home-delivered and congregate meals, case management and assistance with applying for public and veterans’ benefits. |
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
