Overview of Service
Emergent Services address an immediate need for assistance and intervention due to a critical event that poses an imminent health and safety risk and that cannot be addressed by existing community resources. These individuals do not meet the criteria for Older Adult Protective Services intervention or the provision of emergent services would prevent a referral to Protective Service if provided. These services are short-term in nature (generally 24 to 72 hours) until a permanent arrangement / payment solution is made or an alternate caregiver or family member becomes available to provide care. Emergent services include:
- Emergency life sustaining supplies
- Options Core Services
- Overnight shelter
