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.
Bethesda seniors who want to live in their own homes but need help with some tasks may be able to obtain the assistance they need through community-based programs. The region is home to several nonprofit agencies that provide low-cost services, including an Area Agency on Aging, a veterans’ services office and Meals on Wheels. These organizations can help older adults find services in the community or identify ways to fund private home care.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Bethesda-Chevy Chase Meals on Wheels | (301) 654-4610 | The local Meals on Wheels program delivers meals to Bethesda residents unable to obtain meals due to advanced age or disability. Two meals are delivered daily, including a frozen dinner and a hot, freshly prepared noontime meal. The cost is $9.60 per day, but financial assistance may be available. |
| Area Agency on Aging | (240) 777-1120 | The Area Agency on Aging provides services for those aged 60 and over in the community, helping them obtain the support and resources they need to remain independent at home. It administers several financial programs, including utility and rental assistance, home care services and respite services. |
| Montgomery County Commission on Veterans Affairs | (240) 777-1246 | The county’s Commission on Veterans Affairs advocates for older veterans in Bethesda, helping them apply for programs and benefits that may reduce out-of-pocket home care expenses. At the local office, seniors can get information on the veterans' home care program as well as Aid and Attendance. |
| Greater Bethesda Senior Services Database | (301) 652-4900 | The Greater Bethesda Chamber of Commerce has an up-to-date list of agencies that provide free and low-cost services for seniors in the region. Seniors can search for agencies that offer chore services, in-home care, home and yard maintenance and financial planning. |
| Montgomery County Senior Services | (240) 777-3000 | The county’s Senior Services division operates senior centers throughout the region where members participate in social and recreational activities. It also provides information on resources for seniors throughout the region, including library-based programs, ADA-accessible transportation and the Vital Living Network. It also publishes information on the senior property tax credit. |
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – oftentimes 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.
