The Seneca County Commission on Aging provides meals for senior citizens, regardless of income, health or other factors. Employees and volunteers prepare the meals on a daily basis under the supervision of kitchen staff certified in food safety and sanitation.
Menus are prepared by Commission On Aging's nutrition staff and reviewed by a licensed dietitian to ensure the highest nutritional value. As the menus are prepared in house, client likes and dislikes are incorporated into the planning process, allowing the seniors to be served foods which they truly enjoy. In addition to regular and Diet (low sugar) meals available to all clients, the Nutrition Services For Fee program allows the needs of clients requiring specialized diets to be met. For only the cost of the meal ($3.00 regular, $3.40 special) clients can receive meals which meet their dietary requirements including, Low Sodium / Fat / Cholesterol, 1200 cal, 1400 cal, 1600cal, 1800 cal, Renal and Vegetarian meals.
Meals are served at four designated sites throughout Seneca County. Eating
at these sites provides seniors with opportunities
to socialize, and enjoy recreational and educational activities.
Lunchtime activities include games, crafts and movies, as well as educational speakers from Medicaid, social security, Consumer Council, Attorney General's office, rehab services and other health organizations.
Unfortunately, there are many seniors unable to leave their homes due to factors such as health, physical condition, etc. The Commission on Aging offers Meals on Wheels for homebound seniors, delivering meals right to their homes.
Due to Health Department regulations, the Commission on Aging can only deliver hot meals to seniors living in communities within a one mile radius of Tiffin, Fostoria or Green Springs. Frozen meals can be delivered to those who live outside the one mile radius.
