December 2024

The holiday season is a special time for gathering with family and friends, sharing meals, stories, and laughter. For many, it’s a rare opportunity to reconnect with relatives they may not have seen for months or even years. However, these gatherings can also bring to light subtle signs of change in older adults and individuals with disabilities that might otherwise go unnoticed. Recognizing these changes early can make a significant difference in addressing health and support needs promptly.

Attention Older Adults and Caregivers:

Your Voice Matters!

WestMass ElderCare (WMEC), your local Area Agency on Aging, is completing an important survey this fall to better understand the needs of older adults (60+) and caregivers in our community.

Please take a few minutes to share your input and complete this survey by 11/15/24.

Your responses will be kept confidential and will not be shared outside of WMEC or the Executive Office of Elder Affairs.

Most importantly, survey findings will help WMEC identify and address gaps in programs and services to support older adults and caregivers in the coming years.

You can complete the survey online by following this link: https://app.keysurvey.com/f/41748328/8b22/
