Who can benefit from the Center’s services?
- Older adults -- and their loved ones and caregivers -- who wish to remain as healthy and independent as possible in the most appropriate environment.

Where do I start?
Contact the Hartford HealthCare Center for Healthy Aging (formerly the Connecticut Center for Healthy Aging) to speak to a resource coordinator who can provide a free comprehensive assessment of the home. Ideally, assessments should be performed before an injury or illness occurs.
Preparation can bring peace of mind by making a home more comfortable and safe or connecting with essential services. Local resources can include adult day programs, independent and assisted living, long-term skilled nursing centers, housing assistance, food programs such as Meals on Wheels, transportation and much more.
