As an ailing senior, Cochise relies on the help of a dependable home aide to help her with daily tasks and errands so she could continue to live in her own home and enjoy a high quality of life. When she had trouble finding an aide that would fit her needs, she reached out to Catholic Charities who worked with her to find somebody she was comfortable with. Last year 364,373 seniors were supported by Catholic Charities through many programs including home delivered meals, adult day care, senior centers, congregate meals, family caregiver assistance, transportation services, the hospital transition program and more. The support seniors receive from Catholic Charities, ensures that they continue to live comfortably in their own homes and communities for as long as possible with dignity and compassionate support.
