Have questions? Come to the annual Senior Exposition and Health Fair where various Providers of Senior Services offer a forum where seniors, family members, caregivers and other community residents have an opportunity to gather information regarding services available to them.
Where do I go for help? What options are available to me if my spouse needs to go into a Skilled Nursing Facility? My health is failing, what services and programs are available to ensure I can live in my home independently and safe? I am no longer able to drive, what’s going to happen to me now?
