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.
Home care services are only one of the pieces needed for seniors to gracefully age in place. There are many services and programs that are low-cost or free, that enable seniors to enjoy an independent lifestyle in the comfort of their own home, such as help with home modifications, meal delivery services, and more. Below, we’ve compiled a few of the most helpful resources in Lexington:
| Resource | Contact | Address | Service |
|---|---|---|---|
| Homecare Program | (502) 564-6930 | 275 E. Main St. 3E-E, Frankfort, KY 40621 | Homecare Program, offered by the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services, provides eligible seniors in Lexington with services such as home management, chore assistance, home repair and home-delivered meals.

New Circle Rd., Ste. 110, Lexington, KY 40507 | Offered by Goodwill Industries of Kentucky, the Senior Community Service Employment Program connects seniors in Lexington with paid on-the-job training and employment with local nonprofits and community organizations. Career coaches provide additional support to seniors on an individual basis. The program is funded in part by a national Department of Labor (DOL) grant. To qualify, seniors need to be 55 years of age or older and have low incomes. |
| Health Promotion Program | (859) 266-1116 | 699 Perimeter Drive Lexington, KY 40517 | The Health Promotion Program offered by the Bluegrass Area Agency on Aging and Independent Living is funded through the Older Americans Act.

The meals are prepared and provided by volunteers from two local churches: the Trinity Baptist Church and the Second Presbyterian Church. There is no set age requirement; however, applicants must be unable to provide or prepare their own meals. |
| Homestead Exemption | (502) 564-3226 | 501 High St, Frankfort, KY 40601 | This property tax exemption, offered through the Kentucky Department of Revenue, is available to eligible senior homeowners aged 65 or above in Lexington. The exemption reduces any property taxes owed for the year. Eligible seniors can apply for the exemption through the property valuation administrator in Fayette County. An application must be submitted each year to continue receiving the exemption. |
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.
