The National Council On Aging created Resources and Support for Older Adults Living Alone, a guide which includes practical tips and resource recommendations from geriatric health experts and advocates, such as:

• PACE programs, which use Medicare and Medicaid to help older adults attain nursing home-level care
• HealthFinder, a resource with easy-to-understand articles, videos, and interactive tools to help older adults make informed decisions about their health
• NCOA’s BenefitsCheckUp tool which helps older adults identify their potential eligibility for benefits and programs
