Home delivery of meals helps keep older adults out of the hospital. A study from 2018 by Seth Berkowitz and colleagues demonstrated the benefits of meal delivery programs for dually eligible Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. Researchers studied more than 3,000 men and women belonging to this group, a group of people who often don't have access to nutritious foods. The data look promising, with lower healthcare costs and less time in the emergency department (ED) for recipients.

Participants were divided into three groups. Those who received home-delivered meals specifically tailored to meet medical needs, those who received non-tailored meals, and those who did NOT receive home meal delivery.

Over about two years, participants enrolled in any type of meal delivery had fewer emergency department visits than those who didn't get meals delivered. People who got medically tailored meals also had 52 percent fewer hospital admissions.

CASA offers a wide variety of classes, exercise groups, and workshops for members and the public. From learning to knit, to Tai Chi, or line dancing, and much more! 

Get Involved

Despite ever-increasing costs, CASA works diligently to continue to provide high-quality services fo the least possible cost. On average, CASA spends over $1500 per day to provide vital services to you and our community! Any help and support you can give is enormously appreciated!
