Services are available to Folks at Home members because of their payment of a modest annual fee. Beyond those covered services, we also help members make individualized arrangements with pre-screened vendors at the member’s expense. We want this kind of support for ourselves and for those we love-and we believe that you also want it.
Services Included in membership fees:

- Information and referral for anything you need
- Coordinated access to services
- The Transportation service provides F@H clients with a means of traveling to scheduled “local” medical appointments, or to other essential places such as the pharmacy or grocery store. F@H staff members coordinate community volunteers to provide this service.
- Periodic errands, grocery shopping, pick ups and delivery including pharmacy
- Durable Medical Equipment Exchange for items such as shower/bath chairs, wheelchairs, walkers, portable wheelchair ramps and other essential home safety items
- Grab bar installation; grab bars can be critical in helping clients prevent falls
