A Tradition of Serving Older Adults and Their Family Caregivers
Since 1975, Senior Concerns has been dedicated to serving seniors and family caregivers. We serve eastern Ventura County and western Los Angeles County.
Senior Concerns’ programs are proven to help improve the lives of seniors in the community. Meals On Wheels/Home Delivered Meals program effectively addresses food insecurity by making fresh meals available to seniors 365 days per year. Our Adult Day Program for seniors with cognitive or physical impairment provides a safe, nurturing environment, as well as vital respite for stressed family caregivers.
Senior Concerns’ pro bono Caregiver Support Center offers information and resources, support, family consultations and education to family (unpaid) caregivers. Our Senior Advocates help seniors navigate often complex challenges such as Medicare and other benefit programs, and links seniors to support services in the community. We work with attorneys and Certified Financial Planners to provide pro bono legal and financial counseling.
Our In-Home Geriatric Assessment provides a review of care needs and options, evidenced-based assessments focused on depression, cognition, and quality of life, and review of home safety, nutrition status, and social support, as well as discussion of legal protections (Advance Directives, Powers of Attorney, and POLST) and healthcare/long-term care planning.
Our critical work has been recognized by many community leaders. The Greater Conejo Valley Chamber of Commerce has named Senior Concerns 2021 Non-Profit of the Year. The Ventura County Area Agency on Aging has named Senior Concerns Business of the Year and has awarded us their 2021 Legacy Award. The California Lutheran University Community Leaders Association has awarded Andrea Gallagher, our President, the 2021 William E. Hamm Award for her leadership in guiding Senior Concerns through the pandemic and ensuring we were able to meet vital and emerging needs of the senior community.
