CRT - 21st Annual Meals on Wheels Golf Classic

Utopia Home Care was proud to be part of the CRT Meals on Wheels Golf Classic, supporting the program and the seniors they serve! 

The Meals on Wheels program provides meals for Connecticut residents over 60 years old who are home-bound and are unable to eat at a community meal site.  They deliver right to senior's homes in Middlesex, Tolland, and Hartford Counties.  This is a fantastic program that supports hundreds of seniors every day!  In their words:

 

Your support of CRT’s Golf Classic helps thousands of seniors throughout Central Connecticut avoid hunger and social isolation while staying healthy and safe during this public health crisis.  Meals on Wheels helps seniors continue to live in their own homes and brings peace of mind to their families. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, every Meals on Wheels client has received a daily hot meal, no matter the obstacle or cost increases. In the past year, CRT’s Elderly Nutrition Program delivered over half a million meals to seniors throughout Central Connecticut.  This level of care comes with a high price, and we need your help!  We see an increase in elderly home-bound seniors with insufficient income to cover our state’s high cost of living. Your support is vital to these seniors’ ability to maintain independent living.   Even if you’re not a golfer or can’t make the event, your donation will change lives and help Keep Meals on Wheels Rolling!

Utopia provides specialized medical home care for patients who have experienced a change in health condition and require nursing and therapy in their home. This may begin with a hospitalization or a short stay at a skilled nursing facility.  Utopia functions as the final link of the continuum of care from the acute setting, to sub-acute, to post acute care.  We partner with all community healthcare providers, understanding communication and collaboration are essential in care coordination and ensuring patient safety.  We provide a full spectrum of home care services including Medical / Surgical, Orthopedics, and Wound Care.

Utopia is also equipped to provide long-term home care for patients who are aging in place or have chronic and stable diagnoses.  Our goal is to increase independence and ensure patient safety over time, thereby reducing the chances of a hospitalization.  We partner with state programs such as Medicaid (HUSKY) and the Connecticut Home Care Program for Elders (CHCPE), including their partners the Agency on Aging and CCCI.  Utopia also provides nursing and aide services for clients with behavioral health needs and developmental disabilities, which can include medication management and administration.
