Aging in Place: Choosing A Home Health Agency

Date: Oct. 15, 2026
Time: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM

Whether one requires routine housekeeping chores such as laundry, shopping and bathing, or skilled nursing care such as wound care, diabetes or medication monitoring on a visiting or live-in basis, Home Health Agencies provide a wide range of services in the individual’s home environment. Home Health Agencies provide skilled services that are usually reimbursed by Medicare. Home Care Agencies provide non-skilled services usually reimbursed by Medicaid or private pay. Home Care Placement agencies serve as a broker between a home care worker and the older adult. The older adult hires and trains the home care worker paying the caregiver privately as an employer.

Aging in Place: Medicaid and SNAP Changes in 2027

Date: Nov. 5, 2026
Time: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM

Description: HR 1 or sometimes called the Big Beautiful Bill has forced many changes to the Medicaid and SNAP programs. While most of the changes affect the 18-64 year old receipients, some changes will affect individuals age 65 and over. We will review these changes to ensure that Medicaid and SNAP beneficiaries continue to receive benefits.
