Nutrition Counseling

Nutrition counseling and education for a personal diet plan.

The Office for Aging offers nutrition counseling from a registered dietitian to people age 60 and older, with appointments at home, at a senior center, or by telephone.

Questions to ask the program

These are questions to ask the program, not a verdict on your eligibility. Confirm the current rules directly with the program.

  • Does the person receiving care live in New York? Residency is usually the first thing a program checks.
  • 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.
  • What documents do you need from us to start an application?
  • Is there a waitlist right now, and how long is it?
