From Peter's state retirees' system (Ohio) comes this information:
"The Eldercare Locator is a nationwide directory assistance service
designed to help older persons and caregivers locate local support
resources across the country (USA)...established in 1991, it is a public
service of the Administration on Aging. SNIPPED
Anyone can call the toll free number, 1-800-677-1116, Monday through
friday, 9am-8pm Eastern Time,
or go to their website : http://www.aoa.dhhs.gov
You will speak with a trained professional when you call. Some things you
will need when you call are:
*name of county and city, or zipcode of area you're nearest to
*brief description of the problem or situation for which you need
assistance
*questions about fees and services and how they will affect you
This is the first step to find resources that help older adults and
improve their quality of life. "
