Notes:
Case Management. Over 70% of IM's senior clients have needs that extend beyond nutritional imbalances. These needs include major and minor home repairs, lawn care, assistance with paying utilities, assistive devices to enhance their mobility, connection to appropriate prescription drug plans and contact with Adult Protective Services. Case Management staff work tirelessly to connect seniors with services that will allow them to remain healthy and independent. They assess needs, guide them through paperwork, link them to medical and financial resources and generate volunteer support for essential home repairs. Recently they have also begun helping seniors with the intangible elements that create a whole and happy life, joining senior clients with warm, compassionate volunteer visitors in order to reduce isolation and combat the overwhelming loneliness that sometimes plagues the homebound and exacerbates chronic disease.
