The Long-Term Care System provides assistance to the elderly and functionally disabled, 18 years and over, which allows the recipient to sustain independent living in a clean, safe, and healthful home environment. Services include household help, such as shopping, cooking, cleaning and laundry, personal care such as bathing, and dressing and help transferring from the bed.  Care may be just a few hours a day or around the clock. Also assists elders in accessing and receiving social and health services through ongoing case management, support, and referrals.  Catholic Community Services will conduct a free in-home assessment. The in-home assessment takes about two hours and covers a variety of topics, including safety, functionality, and referrals. A CCS professional who has experience in determining what services a person may need does the assessment. Family members are encouraged to attend.
