Referrals

Could you or someone you know benefit from our services?

A REFERRAL FOR IN-HOME SERVICES CAN BE MADE BY CALLING BARREN RIVER AGING SERVICES (782-9223) OR (1-800-395-7654).  ONCE A REFERRAL IS RECEIVED, A CASE MANAGER WILL CALL THE PERSON NEEDING SERVICES AND COMPLETE A PRIORITY RATING.  PERSONS ARE PRIORITIZED BY GREATEST NEED.  THAT PERSON WILL GO ON A WAITING LIST.
 
When someone applies to receive services, a CASE MANAGER makes an “assessment”.  An assessment is the collection of in-depth information about a person's problems in the major functional areas.  This will identify all the needs and resources so that a comprehensive solution can be planned with the client.  Each person who meets the criteria listed in the "Eligibility Requirements" can receive services.

A REFERRAL CAN BE MADE TO THE SENIOR CENTERS THROUGHOUT THE BRADD TEN COUNTIES FOR SERVICES AVAILABLE AT THAT SITE.
