Senior Services and Wellness Programs
The primary purpose of Senior Citizens Council dba The Hub on Smith is to improve the quality of life for senior citizens in the Sheridan area and prevent premature institutionalization. The Hub on Smith uses many tools and programs in achieving this purpose depending on the clients needs. During this fiscal year from October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2024, The Hub on Smith served approximately 105,000 meals; over 66,000 home delivered meals and 39,000 congregate meals in our dining room. The menu for these nutritious meals are reviewed by a dietician ensuring meals meet the guidelines of the Older Americans Act. The Hub on Smith serves both breakfast and lunch. Serving congregate meals in our dining room also serves a social function letting clients meet, catch-up and make plans to participate in one of the many (nearly 21848 units) activities organized by The Hubs Fun and Wellness group. Social isolation can be debilitating. During this fiscal year, 931 unique individuals participated in a wide variety of offered activities from cards, dominos, yoga, hiking, art too many to list. The dining room is often a buzz with activity and laughter or just hanging out reading and enjoying a cup of coffee from The Hubs Grab N Go coffee shop. Some of The Hubs clients need a helping hand in order to remain at home. The Hub provides homemaking (light housekeeping, errands, companionship), personal care (bathing, dressing, medication), and unskilled nursing (vitals, well check) for 152 clients through our Help at Home program. Thats nearly 8,500 units. Some of The Hubs clients find themselves caring for grand and great grandchildren or caring for their aging parents or both and find support at The Hub through the Family Caregiver or Other Relative Caregiver program. Currently, just over 65 clients are supported by this connection. Caregivers and clients who need more supervision or hands-on care can participate in The Hubs Day Break program, a licensed adult daycare. Goose Creek Transit, The Hubs transportation program provides demand response services (approximately 29,500 rides) taking clients to and from appointments both locally and within a 200 ish mile radius. Goose Creek Transit also provides a fixed route service (approximately 29,500 rides) allowing not only our target demographic but the entire Sheridan area bus transportation to run errands, visit friends, and independently get to appointments. The Hub also seeks to educate and provide resources to the community in the changes caused by dementia and how to assist friends, families and loved ones in navigating dementia through our Dementia Friendly Wyoming program. The Hub is able to provide the many programs and services, touch so many lives and have the impact in this community thanks to its many community supporters both in financial contributions and volunteers (633 people donating over 19,700 hours).GeographiesNot indicatedDatesOct 1, 2023 – Sep 30, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$4.5M
