Summary & Background The Department of Senior Services recommends approval of increase in spending authority.  The increase in spending authority is to cover costs associated with the temporary emergency respite program provided during the pandemic and increased services provided to seniors in FY22. The current authority is not able to support the current service levels.

 

Scope of Work: The In-Home Services Program provides eligible senior residents of Fulton County, aged 60 and above with three (3) types of services: (1) homemaker services, which includes light housekeeping, such as vacuuming, dusting, laundry, dishwashing, etc. (2) Personal Care Services, which includes bathing and grooming, and (3) (Caregiver) Respite Services, which allows for a professional certified staff to care for a senior while the primary caregiver is out of the home conducting essential business.

 

Community Impact: This service allows seniors to remain in their residence and age in place. Homemaker services and personal care create a healthier living environment by clearing trip hazards. Caregivers receive respite and assurance that their loved one is in a safe and supervised environment with a professional healthcare worker.

 

Department Recommendation: The Department of Senior Services recommends approval.

 

Project Implications: As the senior population grows, additional resources will be required to meet the demand for services.

 

Community Issues/Concerns:  Seniors will have concerns if services are impacted due to disapproval of this item.

 

Department Issues/Concerns: Home bound seniors will face premature institutionalization at a higher rate, experience increased isolation and have a more difficult time navigating the aging services network to access important resources if services are not provided.
