Get Help

As we age, our needs change. We may need help with things we once found easy to do for ourselves. While everyone has ages differently, Ohio's aging network is here to help. We can help you identify benefits for which you may qualify. If you qualify for Medicaid, we can help you access programs to provide services to keep you in your home and community. If you need facility-based care, we can help you find a facility that meets your needs and preferences. As a consumer of long-term care services, you have the right to expect excellent care, and we have advocates in the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program who can help you get it. And, if you or someone you know faces elder abuse, we can help.
