Help for Isolated Seniors

Celebrate Seniority offers two free programs that can assist seniors who are feeling isolated and lonely.  

MultiCare Celebrate Seniority is offering a program called “Help For Isolated Seniors.” Contact for this program is included on the flier.   Below is more information about the program.  I will also attach the application forms. 

The Senior Friend Program (SFP) promotes social engagement of older adults in Pierce County by pairing volunteers with older adults aged 60+ who are homebound and socially isolated. (In partnership with Lutheran Community Services Northwest.) 

Participants may receive: 

• Companionship – in person visits 

• Transportation – errands and medical appointments 

• Activities – both indoor and outdoor 

The Care Pairs Program offers tools, guidance, and encouragement. Unpaid caregivers will receive weekly check-ins from staff and help with: 

• Resources 

• Safety tips 

• A listening ear 

It is free to participate in both programs.  

To qualify for both programs you must be:  

• 60 years or above for Senior Friends 

• Care Pairs at least 1 person needs to be 60+ 

• Lonely or Homebound 

• Willing to participate in regular visits 

• A Pierce County resident (not in assisted living or SNF)
