Council on Aging Agencies

We at Private Home Health Care would like to discuss the Council on Aging (COA) agencies. The mission of the agencies is to enhance the quality of life for seniors, and to promote respect and good will in the community.

Oftentimes as you age you become more sedentary. It’s easy to withdraw from other people and keep more to yourself.  

Activities are very enriching and in addition, you can sign up for transportation.  Do you need groceries or a ride to an event at the center?  You can sign up and make an appointment for a ride.  

You can often get delicious lunches at a great cost.  Sign up for a variety of exercise classes geared towards the elderly. Attend a meeting with local police who share knowledge and information to improve your quality of life.

In addition, if you golf there there are usually opportunities to join a league. Are you a dancer? Try line dancing or ballroom dancing. Do you love movies?  Check out the movie times offered and sign up. The activities are a perfect way for you to stay connected to others.

Have you recently lost a friend or a spouse?  There are usually support groups who meet at the COA location.  Do you like to travel?  Look for trips closer to home or out in the wider world. 

Council on Aging agencies truly are a place that is full of options for you when you find yourself a bit older and when you are looking for fun or interesting things to do.  The offerings are wide ranging and a fantastic way to meet old or new friends.  

You are bound to find something with all they have to offer!
