| Services: | The Eldercare Locator, public service of the Administration on Aging, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, is a nationwide service that connects older Americans and their caregivers with information on senior services. The Eldercare Locator is designed to help older adults and their families and caregivers find their way through the maze of services for seniors by identifying trustworthy local support resources. The goal is to provide users with the information and resources they need that will help older persons live independently and safely in their homes and communities for as long as possible. Established in 1991, the Eldercare Locator links those who need assistance with state and local area agencies on aging and community-based organizations that serve older adults and their caregivers. Whether an older person needs help with services such as meals, home care or transportation, or a caregiver needs training and education or a well-deserved break from caregiving responsibilities, the Eldercare Locator is there to point that person in the right direction. |

| Services: | The State of Maine’s Community Assessment Program provides health care assessments to individuals over 18 years of age, through a referral from a medical service provider. In 1998 GHS took over management of the program, when it made the transition from paper to electronic assessments. The GHS Community Assessment Program team is comprised of more than 60 nurse assessors, and supported by administrative staff who coordinate the assessments from hospitals, nursing facilities, individuals’ homes, and other health care facilities. We also staff a toll-free help desk to receive referrals from medical providers and answer questions about existing or past cases. Each of our nurse assessors carries a laptop computer. After each assessment, the information collected is directly relayed to our office and to the Bureau of Elder and Adult Services, via a statewide network of secure dial-in locations. |
