Needs Assessment and Referrals

Needs Assessment and Referral

Individual needs assessments are done to help meet, create or connect to resources in order to fulfill needs that may arise in order to keep seniors residing in Steele County healthy, safe, and independent in their own homes. Our service team will help identify areas of daily life where support may be needed:

• We suggest trusted, affordable resources for chores, financial help, personal care, activities, transportation, medical or legal issues, and more
• Apply for government or other programs to help pay for services
• Locate housing alternatives such as assisted living, subsidized apartments, or senior living communities
• Navigate life changes and help with planning for future needs

Call us at (507) 774-7648 for more details.
