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 Williamsburg:
Resource | Contact | Address | Service |
---|---|---|---|
Williamsburg Area Meals on Wheels | (757) 229-9250 | 1769 Jamestown Rd Suite 2-C, Williamsburg, VA 23185 | Meals on Wheels of Williamsburg offers weekday delivery of balanced hot lunch meals to elderly residents of the city who cannot leave home or prepare their own meals. The cost of each delivery is $5.50, but this can be waived for recipients who are income-eligible. The organization also manages a check-up service for vulnerable seniors to make sure that they’re doing okay. |
Virginia Weatherization Assistance Program | (757) 229-9332 | 312 Waller Mill Road Suite 405 Williamsburg, VA 23185 | Virginia’s Weatherization Assistance Program is administered by the state Department of Housing and Community Development with the aid of federal and state funds. In Williamsburg, weatherization is handled locally by the Williamsburg-James City County Community Action Agency. Preference is given to elderly and low-income family households, which can have their owned or rented homes weather-protected at no cost if they qualify financially. Seniors receiving SSI payments are automatically eligible, while maximum income limits are otherwise $31,349 for single-person households and $40,995 for two-person homes. |
Peninsula Agency on Aging (PAAINC) | (757) 873-0541 | 739 Thimble Shoals Blvd., Suite 1006, Newport News, VA 23606 | The PAAINC is the regionally responsible area agency on aging for the area in which Williamsburg is located. The roster of services offered by this organization is extensive and includes a regional Meals on Wheels service for homebound elderly individuals, elder care coordination and referral services, a long-term care ombudsman and case management for seniors and their families. The agency also offers information about local, regional and state benefits programs or health insurance plans. |
Catholic Charities of Eastern Virginia | (757) 456-2366 | 5361-A Virginia Beach Blvd, Virginia Beach, VA 23462 | The Catholic Charities of Eastern Virginia organization offers a broad assortment of programs and support services for elderly residents of Williamsburg and many surrounding counties and towns. The charity’s main offerings include a low-cost in-home respite care program that elders and their families can apply for. Catholic Charities will send a representative to perform a home-based assessment and decide on the degree of support it offers based on its findings. |
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.
