The Village Care Team invites you to join them for lunch. They will share about what the Care Team does and how they engage with Villagers who need a little extra help.

 

 

From time to time, Villagers may need assistance beyond practical tasks, for themself, for another Village member, or for someone for whom they are caretaking. This team is a group of Villagers charged with following up with them by telephone or in person. Most problems, such as social isolation, can be addressed with existing Village programs and activities, but others may be more complex, especially if they involve challenges to independent living, such as temporary health issues requiring hospitalization or special in-home services. They may also include more long-term issues such as new physical limitations, declining mental acuity, or loss of a partner. The Village Care Team endeavors to work with Villagers to help them find a solution. When issues seem significant to several Villagers, the team may also sponsor educational programs, discussion groups, and support groups.
