Some people have medical conditions or age-related issues affecting their ability to prepare, eat, or digest foods. Special dietary requirements or accommodations, including home-delivered meals, help these individuals remain independent longer. According to Health Affairs, “Home-delivered meals may well provide more than just nutritious food to clients. They also are believed to provide dignity and independence and to improve the quality of life for many homebound senior citizens.” Home-delivered meals provide older adults, disadvantaged individuals, and people with disabilities access to nutritional foods. LifeSpring Home Nutrition offers weekly meal deliveries of high-quality food tailored to each client’s specific needs and preferences.
People can sign up for home-delivered meals through various local, state, and federal programs. Most people who use these services meet the criteria for Medicare or Medicaid due to age, disability, and income level. Individuals with a case manager can work with them to determine what steps they should take to receive home-delivered meals from companies partnered with state agencies.
According to Cathleen Anthony, M.B.A., owner of LifeSpring Home Nutrition, “We currently have contracts with Scan Health Plan, Independence at Home, Blue Shield of Ca, CalOptima MSSP, PACE & CalAIM, Partners in Care Foundation, County of Riverside, County of Orange, Huntington Hospital, HSA and are starting CalAIM services with Kaiser in 2024.” LifeSpring Home Nutrition is available through referrals from many local healthcare providers and programs. People who want to know more about how to receive home-delivered meals may contact our office or reach out to their care provider.
Meal deliveries are primarily for individuals who cannot regularly access nutritional meals due to age-related issues, disability, or food scarcity.
People who benefit most from home-delivered meals include:
Meal delivery options allow people to choose from various delicious, well-balanced meals. Everyone deserves the dignity of choice. LifeSpring Home Nutrition helps people build healthier lives by delivering diet-specific meals directly to individuals and families in the community.
Many people have expectations of what they should receive with home delivery. Many familiar state-sponsored delivery programs are mentioned in popular media, and older individuals often have at least some awareness of these services. However, every home delivery company is unique. People who choose weekly deliveries from LifeSpring Home Nutrition can access multiple vital services and resources. The company goes above and beyond to ensure every client receives the best care and support.
Weekly home deliveries include the following:
Home-delivered meals also allow clients to meet face-to-face with the delivery driver. Every region has the same driver each week, making it easier for clients to form a positive relationship. The interactions also serve as a wellness check for older adults or individuals living alone. Clients receive a weekly supply of delicious food tailored to their preferences and needs.
Healthcare costs remain high, and the majority of chronic health issues are related to preventable conditions. Healthy lifestyle choices reduce the risk of multiple medical conditions and lower healthcare costs. According to The Lancet Public Health, “[T]he sheer cost of these preventable illnesses is staggeringly high, estimated at US$730·4 billion (95% UI 694·6–768·5) in the USA alone in 2016. To put this figure into perspective, it is more than the 2019 GDP of 171 countries in the world, or all but the 19 richest countries.”
Home deliveries save people money by doing the following:
People save money on potential health costs and food. Home-delivered meals also reduce transportation costs and provide elderly or low-income individuals with well-balanced meals prepared and frozen for their convenience.
Older adults often have difficulty maintaining a balanced diet. Many seniors live alone and have limited mobility or other issues affecting their ability to prepare food. Home-delivered meals help older people by making it easy for them to avoid the need for assisted care facilities. According to the Nutrition and Aging Resource Center, “Home-delivered meal programs provide nutritious meals to older adults who are not able to attend congregate meal sites.” In addition, “For those who are homebound, delivery of these meals by nutrition staff and volunteers provides an opportunity to see a friendly face.”
Vulnerable members of the community, including individuals who are elderly or disabled, benefit from taking advantage of home-delivered meals. LifeSpring Home Nutrition believes everyone should have the dignity of choice, and the dedicated delivery team ensures older individuals have access to the meals they need to stay independent and healthy. Seniors living alone often find comfort in the weekly visits. Compassion, high-quality meals, and exceptional customer service set LifeSpring Home Nutrition apart from other home meal delivery services.
Home-delivered meals allow seniors, people with disabilities, and disadvantaged individuals to enjoy delicious and healthy meals each week. LifeSpring Home Nutrition partners with multiple state programs to ensure that people who would benefit from nutritional meals and personalized dietary support have access to the necessary services.
