Severely Mentally Disabled residents of Montgomery county, age 18 and older, must be referred by their mental health case manager for funding through the Alcohol, Drug Addiction, and Mental Health Services Board of Montgomery County.

This service offered in Montgomery, Greene, Miami and Darke Counties provides individuals, age 60 and older, the opportunity to have a hot, nutritional breakfast or lunch Monday through Friday while enjoying the company of their peers. All counties have multiple locations. There is a suggested donation of $3 per meal, but not required. Some sites require reservations while other sites require pre-qualification.

An unkempt home can become overwhelming for our seniors. If the situation gets out of control, it can lead to an unsafe environment in which to live. Not only is it a potential health hazard, with an increased risk of pests, but also a dangerous fire and fall risk. If you or someone you know needs help, there are various funding sources to assist with maintaining a clean and safe environment in an individual's home that are beyond the individual's capability. These services include but are not limited to: moving heavy items to provide a safe ingress and egress, non-routine disposal of garbage, pest control preparation and heavy duty cleaning, which consist of washing walls and ceilings, shampooing carpets, cleaning inside cabinets and refrigerator, removing furniture and installing grab bars.
For more information, please call (937) 223-8246 x212 or use our Contact Page.
You rely on your medications to keep you healthy. But complex medication schedules can lead to mistakes: missing doses, taking incorrect amounts, or taking pills at the wrong time. These mistakes could potentially lead to unnecessary doctor or hospital visits, illness, or even death. With the help of a Medication Dispenser, you and your loved ones no longer need to worry if you're taking your medications correctly. The dispenser alerts you with an audible reminder and a flashing light (for hearing impaired individuals) when it's time to take your medicine. At the push of the button the machine will dispense an easy-to-handle plastic cup with your pills inside. If a dose is missed, a caregiver can be notified. They can check on you to make sure you're getting your medications.
How it Works: A nurse or caregiver will load the medication cups and put them in the dispenser. Lifeline will help you program the scheduling times for the machine to dispense. You can load up to 60 doses of medication at once, so if someone takes pills 2 times a day, you can load the machine for 30 days!
Healthcare professionals trust Lifeline to help their patients continue to live independently at home. Under medicating or over medicating can have serious consequences. If you or someone you know has a complicated medication regimen and needs help managing their medication schedule, call us today for more information at (937) 223-8246 x213 or use our Contact Page.
