What the Program Offers
The EISEP Community Collaboration has case managers at four different sites - Catholic Charities Family and Community Services, Urban League of Rochester, Lifespan, and Jewish Family Service. Our county is fortunate to have the support of the United Way of Greater Rochester and the Finger Lakes to offer these very special services to our older and vulnerable adults.
Case Management, Subsidized Personal Care/Housekeeping aide service, and other possible supports such as subsidized Social Adult Day Care, a Personal Emergency Response System (PERS units), home delivered meals, home repairs etc...
Eligibility criteria
Individual must be over the age of 60 and living in Monroe County. He/she cannot be eligible for Medicaid and must have a functional need for assistance with activities of daily living (bathing, meal prep, laundry, housekeeping, dressing, mobility).
Intake Process
Call (585) 262-7060 to speak to our Intake Coordinator if you or someone you know might benefit from these services. Please note: this is a voluntary service so the senior must be willing to accept the help.
If you are not sure which type of service you need or if you are covered with Medicaid, then please contact NY Connects at (585) 325-2800 for information.
Program Cost
No charge for case management, but the subsidy for any direct services is based on a person’s monthly income. A state-wide formula determines the cost share. About 60% of our participants are "donation based," or funded through donations, and do not have to pay a fee for the in-home supports.
A person only has to share their financial information if they want to use the subsidy.
