Aging often brings with it the challenges of living safely at home either alone or with family. Nurses and social workers with the Diocese of Camden’s VITALity Catholic Healthcare Services often encounter individuals during some of these most difficult times of their lives. And when seniors and those with disabilities are faced with the need for help in the home, one call to our Resource and Referral Help Line at 1-888-26-VITALity (1-888-268-4825) connects them to a nurse or social worker who will guide them to resources and assistance to stay as independent and safe as possible.
VITALity’s nurses and social workers are well-versed in the many programs and services that are available throughout South Jersey. We are here to support you every step of the way in your journey. We can assist you in identifying what services are available and help make the connections, as well as provide support with paperwork and applications.
In 2022 we received 1,057 requests for information and assistance from individuals and family members experiencing the challenges of aging, illness, and disability. VITALity Care Coordinators made 4,800 home visits and phone consultations and arranged 2,171 essential services to individuals while providing much needed comfort and support.
TESTIMONIALS
“Thank you so much for the help you gave me regarding the scheduling of my COVID shot. You were warm, gentle, and generous with your time and caring. It was a wonderful experience dealing with you.”
“The VITALity Care Coordinator guided us through the difficult process of finding the essential resources to help my brother get the support he desperately needed to live independently. After getting my brother’s intellectual disabilities properly diagnosed we were able to get him financial support enabling us to move him into his own apartment for the first time in 56 years of living with our elderly mother.”
“I just want you to know how you changed our lives for the better. I am now eligible for a program to get the help that I need. We had no idea any of this existed before you helped us out with everything.”
“The service that VITALity provides is essential for anyone trying to navigate social services applications. Their attention to detail and experience in assisting individuals through myriads of unending and time consuming paperwork is invaluable to streamline the processes.”
