The Brandywine Village:
Concierge Services for Older Adults
Recognizing the growing demand for help at home, Jewish Family Services of Delaware (JFS) is creating the Brandywine Village, a "concierge" model of care that meets the needs of aging adults in northern New Castle County, where, according to the latest U.S. Census, dense pockets of older adults reside. Brandywine Village is a grass roots initiative that combines professional Geriatric Care Management services with non-traditional home-based support, educational and social programs, access to vetted providers, and opportunities for civic engagement.
JFS will hold two public meetings in August to ensure the Brandywine Village meets the needs of the older adult community. Due to space limitations, reserve your place by calling JFS at 302-478-9411. Both meetings will be held at the JFS Wilmington office, 99 Passmore Road, on the follwing dates:
- Tuesday, August 9 at 11:00 AM
- Tuesday, August 16 at 7:00 PM
