Fun Fact: By 60 years of age, we start to have difficulty breathing and 60 percent of men and 40 percent of women will

begin to snore. Snores average around 60 decibels, in the noise level of normal speech but often reach more than 80 decibels. 80 decibels is as loud as the sound of pneumatic drill breaking up concrete. TURN OVER!

Home Repair E-HOMES Elderly Home Owners Maintenance & Everyday Security In 1999 the local United Way completed a needs assessment for McCracken County. It was found that there was not an agency that could assist low income, senior home owners maintain a safe home. This was the birth of our E-HOMES program. Many times older home owners have worked hard to pay off the home but as they age they are not physically or economically able to maintain the safety and security of the home. We can assist with minor mainte-nance, electrical, plumbing, locks, window repair, safety and security. We also help with mobility adaptations such as grab bars in the bath-room, tub or shower or hand held shower units, railing on your steps or new low profile thresholds and limited ramps. We can assist in minor home repair for low income home owners in McCracken county. (No rental property)

Hot Lunch Programs

Our meal program is composed of two areas of focus: The Congregate Meal served at the Senior Center and the Meal Delivery Program. Both programs require that the participant be 60 years of age or older.

Our lunches are developed by a certified dietitian and are 1/3 of the adult daily food re-quirement. We use low sodium recipes. The hot nutritious lunch includes meat, vegeta-bles, whole wheat roll, milk and fruit or dessert .

We offer Congregate Lunch served at the Senior Center dining room that is served promptly at 12 noon Monday through Friday for a suggested donation of $2.00. We serve coffee, ice tea and milk with the congregate lunches. We suggest you arrive no later than 11:45 for lunch.

Meal Delivery is a limited program for our homebound senior individuals in McCracken County. Delivery clients must be homebound, living alone and have severe debilitating ailments that keep them from cooking their own meals. This program also requests a donation for each meal. Call and talk to Robin to complete an application and determine eligi-bility. If eligible, you will then be placed on our waiting list for the delivery program.
