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 Fairfax County:
Resource | Contact | Address | Service |
---|---|---|---|
Fairfax County Services for Older Adults | (703) 324-7498, TTY 711 | 12000 Government Center Pkwy., Fairfax, VA 22035 | Fairfax County’s government oversees many senior-focused programs, including Meals on Wheels, which provides 11 nutritious meals per week for eligible individuals 60 years of age and above.

Home Repair for the Elderly Program | (703) 246-5179, TTY 711 | 12000 Government Center Pkwy., Fairfax, VA 22035 | Older adults who need non-emergency home repairs may be eligible for up to $500 in aid from the Home Repair for the Elderly program.

There are specific application windows for each of these services. |
Virginia Department of Veterans Services | (703) 359-2910 | 9990 Fairfax Blvd., Suite 120, Fairfax VA 22030 | The DVS helps military veterans, including seniors who served, access federal and state benefits.

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.
