Text Box: I-CARE PROGRAM THROUGH MASONIC SENIOR SERVICES
Text Box: Linking Masons and Eastern Star Members to Community Resources
I-Care stands for Independence through Coordination, Assistance, Referral, and Education.

The I-Care program through Masonic Senior Services serves Masons, their wives, widows, and Eastern Star members by identifying and coordinating community-based services that assist them in remaining in their own home and maintaining their independence. A Masonic Senior Services I-Care coordinator can meet with a client in their own home. This service is available at no charge.  A donation can be made to Masonic Senior Services if desired to help fund this program.  
Service coordinators can help arrange in home services such as homemaking to assist with cleaning and shopping, personal care to help with a bath, Meals on Wheels, medical transportation, and getting medical equipment.  Service coordinators can also help with other aging issues such as Medicare and Medicaid.  

Service coordinators help clients find services in their community.  The I-Care program through Masonic Senior Services is provided by The Ohio Masonic Home.  If you or another Mason, wife, or widow or Eastern Star member is in need of this service please contact the service coordinator:
