About this resource

The Senior Alliance, the Area Agency on Aging for Region 1-C in the Wayne County area, runs an Information and Assistance (I&A) Team that helps families arrange the in-home care a loved one needs to stay safely at home. For caregivers determined to avoid or delay facility placement, the I&A Team is the free, central place to start.

An Information & Assistance Specialist listens to each caller’s situation and connects them to in-home and long-term-care supports: meal delivery, in-home help and personal care, caregiving services, transportation, and care coordination, along with programs like the MI Choice Medicaid Waiver. The Senior Alliance also offers the Caregiving Haven platform — a one-stop hub of caregiver tools, guides, and education — so families can pair hands-on services with practical know-how. A single contact opens the door to a coordinated range of supports rather than a piecemeal search.

This resource matters because the right in-home support can be exactly what keeps a loved one home and a caregiver going, yet the options and how to pay for them are confusing. A knowledgeable specialist cuts through that complexity. For southern and western Wayne County caregivers seeking in-home care, the I&A Team is the natural first call. Reach The Senior Alliance at 734-722-2830, Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., or email info@thesenioralliance.org.
