Oklahoma Aging Services, Area Agencies on Aging, Sooner Success, and 211 Resource Navigation

Oklahoma caregivers can use Oklahoma Human Services caregiver supports, Area Agencies on Aging, Sooner Success, Title III Information and Assistance, and 211 Oklahoma to find aging, disability, respite, caregiver, in-home assistance, transportation, legal, nutrition, benefits, and community resource referrals.

What it offers

Oklahoma Human Services caregiver supports route unpaid primary caregivers who help someone age 60 or older, and relatives age 55 or older raising a child, to Area Agencies on Aging for respite, home-delivered meals, legal services resources, home maintenance, and other local assistance. The same page routes caregivers helping someone age 59 or younger, and relatives age 54 or younger raising a child, to Sooner Success for respite and other local assistance. Oklahoma Human Services Title III guidance says Area Agencies on Aging help local communities provide services for older Oklahomans, assess needs, and connect older people and caregivers with local services through Information and Assistance. Oklahoma Human Services in-home assistance guidance routes eligible older Oklahomans to Area Agencies on Aging or 1-800-211-2116 for home repair, homemaker/chore, and transportation service availability. 211 Oklahoma is a 24/7 free service available across all 77 Oklahoma counties through Heartline and Tulsa Area United Way, connecting callers, chat users, text users, and online-search users to social services in their area.

Questions that decide eligibility

GiveCare prepares the questions; the program makes the decision. Bring these to the call or the application:

  1. 01

    Does the person receiving care live in Oklahoma?

    Residency is usually the first thing a program checks.

  2. 02

    Does your relationship to the person — spouse, parent, child, sibling, grandparent, other relative, or non relative — count for this program?

  3. 03

    Does the VA disability rating meet the program’s minimum (our record lists null%)?

  4. 04

    Do the work hours meet the minimum (our record lists null hours)?

  5. 05

    Is there a caregiver-specific department, coordinator, or support line? Ask for it by name.

    Many agencies have one that isn’t advertised on the website.

  6. 06

    What documents do you need from us to start an application?

  7. 07

    Is there a waitlist right now, and how long is it?
