What if the most overlooked service in senior care could actually prevent isolation, ensure safety, and help your loved one thrive at home?

In EP17 of the Simplify Senior Transitions Podcast, I’m joined by David Linnell, Executive Director of Meals on Wheels Diablo Region, to uncover the surprising truth behind this beloved program. Spoiler alert: It’s about much more than food.

We dive deep into:

• How Meals on Wheels provides wraparound services like wellness checks, fall prevention, and companionship
• The biggest misconceptions about who qualifies
• How partnering with hospitals, care agencies, and families makes aging in place more realistic
• Volunteer impact stories and how the community plays a role in supporting seniors
• What families can do today to better support aging loved ones

If you’re an adult child of an aging parent, a caregiver, or a professional in the senior care space—this episode is packed with value.
