Promoting Independence

2016-17 ANNUAL REPORT

Programs and services of the Humboldt Senior Resource Center (HSRC) are vital for the health and welfare of to-

day’s aging population in Humboldt County, as well as for the projected significant growth of the next generation of users. HSRC’s mission is as vital today as it will be in the future.

HRSC’s successful history can be attributed to the efforts of its dedicated staff and tireless volunteers as they provide quali-ty services that meet the participants’ needs. This quality work could not be effectively achieved without the fantastic support and generosity by individuals, organizations, foundations, partnerships, and government agencies.

This year, the Board of Directors finalized a four-year (2017-2021) Strategic Vision that resulted in three strategic goals:

MISSION STATEMENTSeniors and their caregivers in Humboldt County will have

a high quality of life with dignity, health and self-determination in a community

of respect and tolerance.

The HSRC Board of Directors

1. Support all current programs with Redwood Coast PACE’s growth having priority status; envision a licensed and operational PACE Fortuna site serving Eel River Val-ley; and seek funding partners for programs. 2. Achieve competitive salaries and benefits for employees. 3. Restore the Nutrition program to previous service levels.

I’m pleased to be able to report that HSRC is meeting the challenge and is moving rapidly forward into the future. Prog-ress is being made in the renovations on the Eureka campus to provide improved facilities for Adult Day Health; PACE is meeting its growth targets, serving more than 130 partici-pants; and we are actively proceeding with plans for a facility to expand our services in Fortuna. A working agreement with Times Standard newspaper has greatly increased the circula-tion of our informative Senior News , which is now included in the newspaper; thank you Senior News advertisers.

Enjoy reviewing this 2016-2017 Annual Report, which highlights the programs and services that are provided to our local aging population. Thank you for your support and con-tributions which have made an important difference for many of Humboldt’s seniors; you are a big part of this success story. Yes, HSRC is improving the lives of our seniors, their families, and caregivers.

Proper nutrition plays an increasingly important role in aging, and can affect quality of life as a person ages. Older adults with food insecurity run the risk of malnutrition, which in turn can lead to poor health or disease and then loss of independence. The meals provided by HSRC’s Senior Dining Centers and the Home Delivered Meals program not only reduce hunger and food insecurity — they enhance socialization and provide contact for homebound recipients, as well. Home delivered meals were provided to homebound elders from McKinleyville to Fortuna.

We thank our 2016-17 donors

Recreation helps to improve all aspects of an aging senior’s life, including cognitive functioning, physical strength, and social interaction. Exercise can help prevent serious physical and emotional problems such as depression, chronic conditions, and memory decline. Services offered through HSRC’s Activities Program feed the soul of each participant, enhance social engagement, and encourage health and well-being.

Senior News is the area’s only monthly publication for those age 50 and better. Senior News features local columnists and community members, health information, local happenings, and area senior center activities. It is available at more than 120 locations in Humboldt & Del Norte counties.

HSRC’s Alzheimer’s Services provides information about Alzheimer’s and other dementia-related conditions, and resources including caregiver assistance and support groups – all available to anyone in our community who needs help in living with, or helping someone, with these syndromes.

The PACE Interdisciplinary Team coordinates each participant’s care plan of medical, social, and home care services so that these elders no longer need to manage their complex medical care alone.
