Home My Public Portal AboutFY2019 Council on AgingCOUNCIL ON AGING FY19 BUDGET As for my Operating Budget, there are no changes. With regards to our 5 Year Strategic Plan and our Goals and Objectives for what the citizens requested from the UMASS Needs & Assessment Survey, my 1 request for FY19 is for the Town to fund a 19 hour program coordinator. This position would focus on the Goals & Objectives, which include: Communication, Outreach, Marketing Health Education and Chronic Care Management Exercise and Fitness activities Help Older Residents to Age in Place Nutritional Needs of Older Residents Opportunities for Socialization Reliable and Affordable Transportation Options Education Programs Promote and Offer Intergenerational Programs Provide Expanded Recreational Activities Support and Assist Informal Caregivers of Older Residents Enhance Volunteerism and Civic Engagement Obtain Additional Funding to Support and Expend Services 19 hours X $20.00/per hour = $380.00 X 52 weeks = $19,760. We have just hired a replacement for Marilyn Dearborn and she will begin on January 2, 2018. Her 19 hours are paid thru the Mass Formula Grant. Her position will continue to develop and promote events and programs for our Brewster Seniors. FACTS FY17 FY16 Events 6,518 6,687 Rides 3,848 4,052 Volunteers 1,191 1,353 Transportation 3,848 4,052 Outreach 391 302 SHINE 409 289 Meals on Wheels 9,620 8,320 Senior Dining 1,026 1,251 Check-in Court 6,518 6,631 Our numbers are declining a little and I feel this is due to our older seniors becoming more physically frail and too weak to come to our Senior Center and possibly, the Fire Station Construction project. As you can see, the number of Meals on Wheels are increasing. We need to reach our younger seniors to provide resources, support and activities for them. Our Outreach Workers’ numbers are increasing, as more people need help with Supplementary Nutritional Assistance, Fuel Assistance, Mass Health applications, Senior Tax Assessment, Lock Box application, File of Life form, distribution of medical equipment to the homebound, working with the VNA along with our senior clients, SHINE Open Enrollment and Medicare 65+ applications, information on Medical Alert button, stair lifts, grab bars and other devices to assist seniors, etc. Council on Aging (PT)= Part time Employee Town Administrator Appointed by the Board of Selectmen Council on Aging Director Pers.
