MCS' Senior Services Program is dedicated to providing services that enable area seniors to remain independent and to continue living in their own homes for as long as possible.

Home Delivered Meals (Meals on Wheels)
Meals are delivered to those 60 and older or those under 60 who are certified disabled. Meals are delivered Monday through Friday between 11:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. An intake is done over the telephone and services can usually be started the following day.

Brown Bag
Brown Bag is a monthly food distribution for seniors living on St. Paul's East Side. A bag of food containing 10 - 12 items is distributed twice a month at two locations. Applications are available at all MCS offices.

Chore Services
Seniors, do you have housekeeping, yard work, or minor repairs that you are physically unable to do? Merrick Community Service's chore program can help. A sliding fee scale is available.

Health Clinics
Flu shot clinics, blood pressure checks and health assessments are held periodically.

Social Group
MCS' senior social group meets weekly, 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. for activities, group trips, socialization and occasional speakers on topics of interest.

Our senior programs depend heavily on the services of volunteers. Home-delivered meals are delivered by volunteers.  Interested in Volunteering?  Contact us to get started.
