Live Well at Home
Program Description
Through the Live Well at Home program, the Korean Service Center aims to help Korean immigrant seniors living in Minnesota overcome language and cultural differences, ensuring they can live more comfortably and actively on their own in a foreign country.
We strive to meet their basic needs by providing essential services, such as transportation and customized care based on their health conditions, thereby creating an environment that enhances their well-being and quality of life. Additionally, we offer various services to improve the quality of care through community education, laying the foundation for better care beyond just the provision of services.
Program Details
All-In-One Transportation Service
This Service helps Korean immigrant seniors safely attend medical appointments and social service visits. Our support goes beyond transportation, including thorough preparation before, during, and after the visits. We collaborate with interpreters and medical offices to ensure clear communication and remind seniors of their appointments in advance. Volunteers or drivers accompany clients during hospital visits, assisting them with check-ins and navigating the hospital. After the visit, we ensure that clients return home safely and provide additional support as needed.
