Our goal is to improve the quality of life to foster a longer and happier life. Here at Comfort Keepers Home Care Agency in Cincinnati, OH, we believe that The Interactive Caregiving Approach is the best tactic in perpetuating a healthy life.

About Heyday

We are a virtual and in-home healthcare practice dedicated to improving the primary care experience for older adults. We founded Heyday Health because we saw the health system leaving our elderly loved ones behind and were driven to create a better solution. Our mission is to transform how, when, and where we deliver care to achieve exceptional outcomes.

For many people, getting at least one nutritious meal a day can be a challenge. Physical or cognitive disability, illness, and lack of support or transportation are common barriers that prevent many people from preparing food or traveling to a group meal location such as a church or senior center.  

To offer access to nutritious meals, Council on Aging (COA) provides home-delivered meals through 1) PASSPORT (Ohio's Medicaid waiver home care program), 2) locally-funded Elderly Services Programs, and 3) the Ohio Home Care Waiver program (Ohio Medicaid waiver program for people under age 60). Each year, COA provides more than 2 million meals to approximately 10,000 homebound older adults in Butler, Clermont, Clinton, Hamilton and Warren counties.

Eligibility

Eligibility for home-delivered meals is determined by nutritional need and criteria are derived from funding sources. To qualify for home-delivered meals, you must meet all of the following criteria:

• age 60 or older (except for the Ohio Home Care Waiver where there is no age criterion)
• unable to prepare your own meals
• unable to participate in a congregate nutrition program because of physical or emotional difficulties
• lack another meal support service in the home or community

Home-delivered meals may also be provided to the spouse of an eligible person, who lives in the home of the eligible person, regardless of the spouse's age or abilities.  This is determined on a case-by-case basis. 

Meals are prepared by one of our quality meal providers and delivered directly to your door by a friendly volunteer or staff person. Delivered meals can be hot, chilled or frozen and can be prepared to meet special dietary needs (diabetic, dietary restrictions, etc.).

Cost

Home-delivered meals through Council on Aging are free of charge. However, our funding does not cover the full cost of preparing and delivering meals. Donations allow us to reach out to more people and help with the costs for preparation and delivery. Donations of any size are accepted and appreciated.  Your meal provider will explain how you may make a donation.

Golden Buckeye Card, Ohio Long-term Care Consumer Guide, and Ombudsman

Ombudsman

Ohio's Office of the State Long-term Care Ombudsman advocates for people receiving home care, assisted living and nursing home care. Paid and volunteer staff work to resolve complaints about services, help people select a provider and offer information about benefits and consumer rights.

Ombudsmen do not policy nursing homes and home health agencies. Instead, they work with providers, residents, their families and other representatives to resolve problems and concerns. Ombudsmen advocate a person-centered approach to meeting the needs and honoring the preferences of their clients. Ombudsmen link residents with services or agencies, offer advice on selecting long-term care providers, inform consumers about their rights and provide information and assistance with benefits and insurance.

Ohio Long-term Care Consumer Guide

The Long-Term Care Consumer Guide provides information about nursing homes and assisted living facilities to help consumers, family members and professionals search for the appropriate facility to meet an individual's needs. If you have determined that you need to move to a nursing or assisted living facility, you can start to compare facilities by using the Ohio Long-Term Care Consumer Guide.

For personalized assistance with long-term care options, please contact the long-term care ombudsman program at 1-800-282-1206.

Golden Buckeye is a discount card available for residents of Ohio, age 60 years and older and adults 18-59 with permanent and total disabilities.

Seniors who have an Ohio driver`s license, an Ohio ID card or are registered to vote will automatically be sent a card in the mail when they reach age 60. The packet will have information on how to use the Golden Buckeye Card. If you do not receive the Golden Buckeye Card when you become eligible, you can pick up a Golden Buckeye application at a local senior center or your local branch library.

Homelessness Prevention

St. Vincent de Paul`s help is diverse and far-reaching, but it begins in prevention.  For those living paycheck to paycheck an unexpected expense such as a car repair or a child`s medical bill can set the whole household over budget.  Often a small investment to help with a rent or utility bill will save a family from eviction or having water or electricity turned off and ultimately catches them before they become homeless.
