Find help by what's going on
You don't need to know what a service is called. Find the line that sounds like your situation, and I'll point you to the right pages.
My home needs to be safer to get around
Grab bars, ramps, stair lifts, walk-in showers, and someone to look the house over for trip hazards.
Something in the house is broken
A door that sticks, a dripping faucet, a light that won't come on.
No heat, no hot water, or a leak right now
Plumbing, heating and electrical companies, several of which list 24-hour or emergency service. If anyone is in danger, call 911.
I need a ride
To the doctor, the grocery store, or the airport.
I need help with meals or groceries
Meals delivered to your door, lunch with company, food boxes, help applying for food benefits, and supermarkets that bring groceries to your car or your door.
Someone I love needs care or company at home
Caregivers who come by for company, bathing, meals and reminders, and give the family a break.
I need a nurse or therapist at home after a hospital stay
Home health agencies send nurses and therapists to the house when a doctor orders it.
I live alone and worry about falling
A medical alert button you can wear, a walk through the house for trip hazards, and grab bars where they help.
I need a wheelchair, walker or hospital bed for a while
Borrow or rent what you need after a surgery or a fall, without buying it.
The housework is getting to be too much
Regular cleaning, a deep clean, or help getting ready for guests.
The yard is getting to be too much
Mowing, weeds, pine needles, and clearing brush away from the house before fire season.
I need a doctor today, or the nearest hospital
Emergency rooms, urgent care and low-cost clinics, each with a button for directions. In an emergency, call 911.
My phone, computer or TV is giving me trouble
Patient help at home or over the phone, and the companies that provide internet and TV.
I'm thinking about downsizing or moving
Estate sales, clear-outs, help planning a move, and real estate agents who work with people downsizing.
I'm going away or moving, and need to handle the mail
Hold your mail, change your address, and find your post office's hours.
I need someone to look after my pet
Pet sitters and dog walkers who come to the house.
I need help paying for things or applying for benefits
Free help finding programs, Medicare counseling, food benefits and long-term care coverage.
I'm worried about a scam, or about someone being taken advantage of
Who to call, and how to spot the common tricks before they cost you.
I want to be ready for wildfire season
Free property assessments, brush clearing help, and the county's emergency alerts.
I'd like to get out and enjoy town
Places to swim and walk, shows and concerts, and congregations to visit.
Still not sure who to call? The Area Agency on Aging for northern Arizona gives free help finding services at 877-521-3500 (weekdays). Or tell me what you were looking for, and I'll try to add it.
