MOORESTOWN – Burlington County seniors have another location where they can access information on County programs and services for them and their families. Beginning on Oct. 7, staff from the Burlington County Office on Aging will be present at the County Corner Store in the Moorestown Mall on the first Monday each month from 11 AM to 1 PM to answer questions about senior programs, services and benefits. More than 2,000 Burlington County seniors were aided by Office on Aging programs last year, including 1,335 who regularly received meals from the County’s Meals on Wheels program and more than 570 who attended the County’s congregate nutrition sites. “Burlington County strives to make a difference for every resident, including our seniors,” said Burlington County Commissioner Director Felicia Hopson. “Bringing Office on Aging staff to the County Corner Store at the mall is another way for seniors to learn about the many programs and services available to assist them, including meals on wheels, fitness classes and caregiver support. It’s a great opportunity for seniors to access information in a convenient location that’s very familiar to them.” Some of the services and programs the Office on Aging can provide information about include: Light housekeeping services and caregiver respite for qualifying families In-home health aide services Physical fitness programs for seniors Meals on Wheels and congregate nutrition sites for seniors Home security inspections and assistance from the Burlington County Sheriff’s Office Burlington County residents can also access more information about these and other services seniors may be eligible to receive from the Burlington County Office on Aging’s Directory of Services.
