Ask Serving Our Seniors
Q: I can’t afford to buy Medicare
Part D prescription drug
insurance. I’m married and
our gross combined income is
$1,991.00/month. Our savings is
$27,000.00. Who can help me?
A: If you are an Erie County resident,
age 60+, Serving Our Seniors can
help you. For individuals and married couples with
lower incomes, the federal government has a program
called “Extra Help”. It allows you to have Medicare
Part D at a very low cost. Call us today and ask for
an appointment.

Health Care Advocate
Q: I heard that Erie County
residents ages 65 and older can
ride the SPARC bus for free. Is
that true?
A: Yes, it is true. To get your pass,
come to Serving Our Seniors with
proof of age and residency. The SPARC is the bus that
stops at various bus stops throughout the Sandusky &
Perkins area.
– Nancy, Senior Advocate Assistant
Q: I am caring for my spouse. I’m doing fine, but
our kids are on my back about
“taking care of me.” What is it that
I should be doing?
A: I’m glad you are doing fine now,
but don’t want you to wait until a crisis
before you find out what is available
to help and support caregivers. Let me help you learn
about the “Caregiver Support Program” (419-382-0624
ext. 2226. Ask for Heather Wonnell) and all that they
have to offer to assist you.
– Morgan, Senior Advocate
Assistant
Q: My dad is very competent, but having physical
health problems. He won’t accept help. He doesn’t
want others to know his business. What can I do?
A: That’s where I come in. I am a “Senior Advocate”
