Meals on Wheels

We serve meals in Worcester County to residents who are unable to leave their homes. Meals are provided Monday through Thursday. 

​

This service is more than a meal, it is a friendly contact and check-in to make sure the resident is doing well. Many of our clients do not have anyone to check in on them and our staff may be their only daily/weekly contact. Our staff have found some of our participants in situations where they were injured, had fallen or needed help and would not have been able to make a phone call. Our meals on wheels staff are security and support for these clients. Many of our clients are isolated from family and may not have any friends to check on them.

SENIOR ISOLATION AND HUNGER

Even the most independent among us, if fortunate to live long enough, may experience a decline in mobility or health that can strip away our independence and diminish the quality of our lives. Great advances in medicine have extended our average life expectancy to a record high of 78.7 years. Living longer means more years spent in the struggles that accompany old age. Add to that the increase in geographic mobility of our families and the result is millions of seniors left behind, hungry and alone.
