CONWAY — Trillium Park, a senior living community, has launched a home-visits program called You Don't Have to Live with Us for Us to Help.
It is part of Emeritus Senior Living's Safely Somewhere program.
"We realize that there are many seniors in our area going without the vital health, social and supportive services they need to maintain their quality of life at home," Kelly Hillis, community relations director, said. "Our home visits program helps these seniors cope with their challenges and provides a host of resources to help them stay healthy and connected to the community."
A few of the services Trillium Park will offer to seniors:
-Nurse evaluation to help identify care needs
-Support system check to identify potential challenges based upon gaps in needed assistance
-Referrals to other area providers as needed based upon needs uncovered
-Post visit follow-up coordination with families and referral sources after home visits
-Access to Emeritus resources such as a family lending library and senior safety tips
