The intake specialists would be able to give you more information based on what they qualify for. The offices are open Monday- Friday from 8 - 4:30.

You can download the pdf from the website if you Google ohio poa, should bring it up rather easily. Both people need to sign and will have to get notarized.

Not in ohio. You'd have to see what KY has to offer.

If you are over 60 I believe if not it would be more of domestic violence. Either way please contact your police and go to the ER.

Call the Council on Aging directly.

7211025 for assistance

Hi Leonie - You do not need an appointment to talk to one of our representatives about our programs and services or to begin the process of finding out if you qualify for any of them. Please call us at (513) 721-1025 and select Option 2.

You apply by calling and giving your name to the intake person/ receptionist. From there there's a process that you have to go through. This process has alot to do with giving information, verifying information and then them determining if you are Eligible for services. Be persistent with your communication with COA.

If your mother refuses, that is her right to do so! No matter what he state of mind is, she still has rights...you could call in an obudsman and ask for ideas..but if your mother has Alzheimer's sadly most are terrified of water..so maybe try washing it yourself and see how she does...

Call 721 -1025 and complete a phone assessment. See which program he qualifies for.

You should contact Duke or People Working Cooperatively

Call the Health Department. They will come out investigate, take pictures. In most cases the problems are resolved at the Housing Management's expense.
