HOPE - HEALTH - HOME

The Senior Extended Services Project was created to bridge the gap between healthcare services and everyday living needs. While many seniors qualify for Medicaid, Medicare, or other aging programs, essential support services often remain uncovered. These gaps can lead to preventable hospitalizations, caregiver burnout, housing instability, and loss of independence. Built on the 26-year foundation of Able Home Health Care, our nonprofit program extends support beyond clinical care to ensure that seniors and adults with disabilities can remain safely and comfortably at home.

Extended Support Services

Through charitable donations and community partnerships, we provide:

Transportation Assistance
Helping seniors access medical appointments, pharmacies, and essential errands.

Food & Nutrition Support
Addressing food insecurity and promoting healthy aging.

Chore & Household Services
Light home assistance to improve safety and daily living.

Personal Care & Companion Services
Non-clinical support to reduce isolation and preserve dignity.

Caregiver Education & Respite Support
Training and relief services to prevent caregiver exhaustion.

Mental Health & Community Resource Connections
Connecting families to emotional support and local resources.

Housing Stability & Advocacy
Assisting seniors with aging-in-place solutions and safe housing options.

Why It Matters

These services are often not reimbursable—yet they are critical to maintaining independence. By addressing unmet needs early, we help reduce crises, support families, and allow seniors to remain in the place they call home.

Through community support and donor investment, AHHCSS delivers Hope, Help, and Homeacross Nash, Edgecombe, Halifax, Northampton, and Wilson counties.

Measurable Outcomes

Through the Senior Extended Services Project, AHHCSS is committed to delivering meaningful, measurable results:

• Serving 100+ seniors annually
• Providing 450+ units of essential extended services
• Achieving 90% client satisfaction
• Reducing preventable hospitalizations by 20–30%
• Enabling 85% of participants to remain safely in their homes
• Training caregivers and community workers in vulnerable adult care
• Expanding outreach through a Peer Educator Model

These outcomes represent more than numbers — they represent fewer emergency room visits, reduced caregiver burnout, safer homes, and seniors maintaining dignity and independence.

Strengthening Rural Communities

In rural counties, access to transportation, nutrition, and supportive care can determine whether a senior thrives at home or faces a crisis. By addressing these gaps early, AHHCSS helps:

• Prevent avoidable institutional placements
• Stabilize family caregivers
• Reduce community healthcare costs
• Improve overall quality of life

Because our nonprofit is built on a 26-year, established, trusted foundation, we can respond efficiently, responsibly, and with accountability.

A Ripple Effect of Care

When a senior remains safely at home, the impact extends far beyond the individual. Families experience relief, communities grow stronger, and healthcare systems face less strain. Every extended service we provide creates a ripple effect of stability and hope.

Together with our donors, partners, and community supporters, AHHCSS continues to deliver Hope, Help, and Home — strengthening lives and communities one household at a time.
