Start FreeAging-in-place planning for Niagara Falls families
Use the Niagara County offices
For a Niagara Falls address, the Niagara County Office for the Aging coordinates in-home services, meals and caregiver programs, and the Niagara County Department of Social Services handles Medicaid applications. Niagara County also runs NY Connects for free information on long-term services.
City programs and health care
The City of Niagara Falls lists senior services for residents. Niagara Falls Memorial Medical Center is the city's hospital; if a parent is coming home after a stay, see bringing a parent home from rehab.
Older homes, practical fixes
Many homes in the city are older, with interior stairs, narrow bathrooms and basement laundry. Start with railings on both sides of stairs, grab bars, brighter lighting and clear walkways. Our aging in place checklist goes room by room.
Where HOMEWARD fits
HOMEWARD serves Niagara County as well as Erie County. We do a home visit, build a written plan, help you find qualified independent providers, and keep the family updated. If staying home stops being safe, Cardinal Care Advisors can help with assisted living options in Niagara County.

HOMEWARD is designed to help families navigate the services already available in Western New York rather than pretending one company should provide everything. Public programs, qualified home-care providers, transportation, community supports and independent contractors may all have a role depending on the situation.
