Sara's Story
We can’t do it without you! Your support now is more essential than ever in helping individuals like Sara who has been an LCS client for six years. An older adult living alone in a senior community, Sara has depended on her weekly sessions in Winter Park where she is met with someone who cares about her no matter how she is feeling. Before the pandemic, she would have people come into her home to help her with her basic needs and found the community dining room a respite and place for socializing with others. With older adult facilities closing their doors to visitors and having to keep residents in their private areas, she became isolated and lonely. With LCS’s telehealth, she has continued her sessions with her counselor and says it’s the only interaction with the outside world. It has allowed her to think about next steps for her care and opening her eyes to the possibility that she needs more care. Through her interaction with LCS, she has something to look forward to each week; a face she knows and can trust while finding a new hope for her future.
