Are You a Senior?
Life doesn’t have to stop just because you’re getting older.
At LifeStream, we believe that sometimes all it takes is a little assistance to help you maintain your own independence. That assistance, tailored to your own unique needs, is exactly what we aim to provide by offering information, resources, and support to help improve your quality of life so that you may be able to remain independent.

In-Home Care Management
Many find comfort in their own home, and because of this, remaining in their home, even as they age, becomes a priority. We look for ways to provide just that: the opportunity to remain in your home. Our staff works diligently to assess client need and assist wherever they can. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Identifying funding sources for services
- Providing our clients’ choices of in-home service providers in their area
- Authorizing delivery Service
- Client follow-up
- Assistance with transitioning from nursing facilities back into a residential setting
- Assistance with exploring options for care
Contact our In-Home Care Managers and Options Counselors to connect to care.
Nutrition
As you age, your body develops new needs and demands. Nutrition can play an essential role in your overall health. Many struggle to both address and meet these nutritional needs on their own. Some do not have the time or resources required to maintain a well-balanced diet, and others may not even understand the overall impact that certain foods might have on their health. Our Nutrition services are designed to meet you halfway. Our program is designed to educate you on what foods your body needs, and provide you convenient access to these healthier options through our many programs, including:
- Senior Cafés
- Home Delivered Meals
- Farmers Market Vouchers
If you are seeking access and education to better nutrition options, visit our nutrition page today and learn more about our services.
Wellness
Along with Nutrition, overall wellness must become a necessary focus when aging, to help prevent unnecessary pain or illness. Many times, this overall wellness can revolve around getting up and moving in a safe and monitored environment. Our Wellness programs are designed to provide age-appropriate activities and education designed to help encourage seniors to remain active:
- Active Living Every Day
- Geri-Fit
- Home Meds
- A Matter of Balance
- WISE (Wellness Initiative for Senior Education)
- Healthy Eating Every Day
If you are looking for options to get active and learn more about your overall wellness, visit our Wellness page today and learn more about our services.
Transportation
Often times, transportation is a major barrier between an individual and an independent lifestyle. Whether you need to get to a doctor’s appointment, the grocery store, or simply to the park, we believe that you should not be denied an independent sense of life simply because you can no longer drive. Because of this, we provide transportation services for those who live in nearly every county that we serve counties that we serve.
