Home Delivered Meals – Meals on Wheels
OPC’s Meals on Wheels program is designed for seniors unable to shop and/or prepare meals. MOW allows a senior to age in place, encouraging independence for those who wish to remain in their home for as long as possible. OPC’s MOW Program is more than a meal. Volunteers provide a wellness check in addition to delivering a hot, nutritious meal to homebound seniors. There is no waiting list, and meals are received within 24 hours of request.

Adult day services is a professional care setting in which older adults, adults living with dementia, or adults living with disabilities benefit from individualized therapeutic, social, and health related services. Read More The Adult Day Service is an important source of support for family caregivers. The program offers a safe, caring environment for the participants and respite for their caregivers during the day, enabling individuals to live at home and remain independent in their communities. Our program provides a full curriculum of activities for seniors who may function somewhat independently, but who are socially isolated and need structure, activities, mental stimulation and/or supervision in a home environment. We discuss current events, play cards and board games, get involved in art and crafts projects, take field trips and sometimes we sing, dance, tells stories, and just have a lot of fun. The OPC Senior Resource program offers you or someone you care about a place to find out about information and resources, available in the community, on all aspects of aging. We can connect you to the helpful programs and services if you or loved one is experiencing difficulties – physical, emotional, legal, or financial. Our Information Hallway, outside the Senior Resource offices, not only contains information on OPC’s services, but has answers to frequently asked questions, and brochures, to other valuable resources for seniors and their families.
