Meals on Wheels is now available anywhere in Prince Edward County. The Prince Edward County Community Care for Seniors Association encourages seniors or their caregivers to call and make arrangements for delivery of hot or frozen meals. Due to the commitment of volunteers, the hot meals go out Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays in all locations using physically distant delivery procedures.
Free delivery of groceries, medicines and other essentials is also available.
Seniors who are isolated at home can find some ways to engage with others by calling Community Care. Volunteers make regular calls to just chat and there are online and telephone active living programs available as well.
The Community Care staff are working from home offices. Call 613-476-7493 and leave a detailed message. Calls are returned regularly throughout the day.
Updates to services are posted to the Community Care Facebook Page at www.facebook.com/CommunityCareforSeniors and to the website at www.communitycareforseniors.org
