Featured Information
Medicare Information - From Nov. 15 to Dec. 31, people with Medicare may change their coverage for medical and hospital care as well as prescription drugs. We provide resources to help consumers learn more and make informed decisions.
Energy Assistance - Energy Assistance Programs sponsored by the Ohio Department of Development help low-income Ohioans of all ages deal with the high costs of heating or cooling their homes. The Ohio Department of Aging, along with the state's area agencies on aging, help older Ohioans learn about and access these benefits.
Unified Long-term Care Systems Planning - Unifying the state's long-term care services and supports is an important first step to contain costs for the state and give our citizens the support they need in the settings they desire.
Employment Resources for Seniors - More older Ohioans are choosing to stay in the workforce long after they've reached "retirement age." Some do it to supplement their incomes, others do it as their primary income and still others continue to work just to stay active and engaged. We work with regional, state and national partners to help Ohioans find work, learn new skills or refresh their existing skills.
Administrative Rules - An administrative rule is a state regulation that bears the weight of law. We invite all Ohioans to be a part of the rules development process by listing all current rules, providing opportunities to review draft rules, notifying the public when our rule proposals are submitted for approval and sharing rule proposals from other state entities that may affect older Ohioans.
