Senior Services
Critical senior services are supported by property taxes in 74 of Ohio’s 88 counties. What’s at risk includes essential services such as:
Home-delivered meals
In-home care and personal assistance
Transportation and adult day services
Home repair and accessibility modifications
Care coordination, wellness, and social programs
Telephone reassurance and safety monitoring
Local senior centers will greatly reduce services or close altogether.
There will be a diminished ability to investigate cases of abuse and neglect of Ohio’s 2.8 million seniors
Thousands of seniors could be forced into higher-cost nursing facilities sooner
