Nutritional Supplements

 

Special dietary demand require nutritional supplements. Our Nutrition Programs manager can assist by providing specific supplements for a variety of needs. 

Supplements are provided through donations and through fund raisers held by the Council on Aging staff and Volunteers. If a senior has a specific need, or a doctor has recommended nutritional supplements, we can assist in obtaining the needed supply.

Home Delivered Meals

Meal routes cover every corner of Chatham County, providing the community with the assurance that no senior will be overlooked. 

The Volunteers fill a critical need that goes beyond a nutritious lunch. As they come to know the people they visit, they refer other needs to our staff, such as fans in the hot summer, minor home repairs, and transportation for shopping or medical appointments.
