How can older adults live independently and thrive in their own homes as they age? In our interview with Kathleen Dormody, the local director of Partners In Care Maryland, there is a lot of good news in doing just that.
From transportation to medical appointments and social activities to installing grab bars or changing lightbulbs, their services go far beyond basic care. Kathleen highlights unique programs like low-vision support, phone buddy systems, pop-up boutiques, and volunteer time-banking.
This state-sponsored initiative can be a critical link for those on the Mid-Shore eager to find creative solutions for maintaining independence for those of a certain age.

Great coverage of a great Program! I have been a volunteer with Partners in Care for more than 3 years. It is a very rewarding way to spend a few hours a month meeting the nicest of people who are very grateful for the volunteer time we give them. If you are looking for a volunteer opportunity, this is an excellent way to design a way to do it conveniently with your personal schedule. Come join the fun!
