Assisted Living Tidbits for Boise

We have already briefly mentioned 'Senior Solutions' in Boise as being one of the local agencies that is available to senior citizens in Boise - to help them on a number of fronts, and to provide information and resources to seniors that may help them to live independently, eldercare issues, as well as information about the local senior center in Boise.

By calling Senior Solutions, one may be able to obtain information about various other agencies that may be able to help with a particular issue or problem, or find resources that may be able to provide the information needed. Some of the topics of information that may be provided are: senior housing (including assisted living in the Boise area), in-home help, and other agencies and organizations.

Support Services are also available which include in-home needs assessments facilitated by licensed social workers; intensive care management, care coordination, and caregiver assistance.

The Boise Senior Center is a common meeting place for seniors in Boise that, as with most senior centers, is the hub of activity for local seniors who wish to participate in social events, classes, health education and screenings, and much more. The Senior Center is located at 690 Robbins Road.

Another way for seniors to stay active, engaged, and 'plugged in' is by volunteering! The Boise Senior Center welcomes volunteers, and has numerous opportunities for those who wish to partake in this fulfilling and extremely helpful activity. Some of the things volunteers can assist with are: working at the front desk of the senior center; class leaders, activities assistants, and more. If you wish to find out more about these wonderful volunteer opportunities, please call the Center at 208-345-9921.

Caregivers (those caring for an older family member) are often the unsung heroes in a community who are many times 'sandwiched' between generations - caring for a parent, while at the same time having young children, and full-time jobs. Obviously, this can be an extremely taxing situation - emotionally, physically, mentally and even spiritually. Caregivers are often exhausted and depressed from dealing with the daily strain that caregiving puts on their family, and personal lives.

Help for caregivers is often times just a phone call away. Senior Solutions offers Eldercare Services to 'provides specialized assistance to people who have particular challenges caring for elderly family members.' Qualified and certified Geriatric Care Managers licensed social workers are on-hand to assist families with information, crisis management, referrals, and more. The people most likely to benefit from Eldercare Services are: Seniors who do not have family available to help them; Those who need help with caring for elderly parents; those who live geographically apart from elderly relatives who need help. To find our more about what Eldercare Services offers, and can do for your family, please call 208-345-7777

Another agency serving seniors and older adults in the Boise area, as well as numerous other towns and counties in Southwest Idaho is the Southwest Idaho Area 3 Agency on Aging (SW Idaho AAA). This agency exists to 'provides leadership, advocacy, planning coordination and evaluation for all aging services' in the areas that it serves. In addition to the numerous services, information, outreach and assistance that the agency provides, the Sage Community Resources website offers information on special events relevant to seniors living in Boise and Southwest Idaho. To view the recurring events at the numerous senior centers in Boise and the surrounding areas/counties, please view the Southwest Idaho Events for Seniors page.

Boise is a large city of 205,707 (the surrounding metro area has been estimated at 616,500). This is the largest metro area in Idaho, and is a popular retirement choice for seniors. Currently, there are an estimated 21,375 seniors living in Boise, which represents 10.5 percent of the population of Boise. Although this is slightly lower than the national average of 12.6 percent (possibly due to Boise being a college town), the number of seniors living in Boise is significant. One of the attractions about Boise for seniors is that is stays relatively dry year-round, with not much snowfall in the winters, and warm, mostly dry summers.

One of the most prominent entities in the Boise area that serves the needs of the local senior population is 'Senior Solutions' which is a not-for-profit agency that '...provides services for senior citizens primarily in the City of Boise and Ada County, Idaho, to help them remain living independently as long as possible.' To find out more about what Senior Solutions has to offer, please call 208-345-7777.

This page should offer a starting point for your research into the numerous assisted living facilities and senior care options in the Boise area.
