Home Delivered Meals | Ohio District 5 Area Agency On Aging

Home delivered meals offer many homebound older adults a sense of connection to the outside world. Meal deliverers check on the welfare of the homebound and often become friends. They are trained to report any health or other problems they may notice during their visits. The home delivered meal program also works to improve the nutrition of homebound older adults. All meals provide at least one-third of the government's daily-recommended dietary allowances. Five meals will be delivered each week for six weeks.
