Senior Services Programs
Catholic Charities bridges the gaps in elder care by providing tailored in-home support, specialized hospital-to-home transitional care, essential transportation, and dedicated advocacy to help local seniors safely maintain their independence.
At MSSP, we believe in the dignity of aging in place. Our dedicated team of Registered Nurses and Social Workers collaborates to provide a comprehensive interdisciplinary approach to care. By identifying and coordinating key community resources, we help frail seniors remain safely in their own homes and delay the need for nursing home placement.
