1. Is transportation available to the Center?

Transportation is available through the County transportation system for such needs as doctors’ appointments, shopping, and getting to the Center. The transportation phone number is: (252) 399-2817 and Elaine Swinson is coordinator.

The 15 passenger van shared by the Wilson and Black Creek Centers is available if someone can make arrangements in advance. The Director can set this up.

2. Is anyone available to look after my elderly relative at the Center?

While everyone is most welcome to come to the Center, it is not to be used as a drop-in service for Eldercare. Those who attend need to be able to function on their own during programs and activities. Staff limitations keep us from being able to spend our whole time with one participant.

Encourage those who need assistance to bring a friend or relative to help.

3. What are the dates of upcoming activities?

All activities are posted on the board in the hallway as well as in the monthly newsletter. Encourage all seniors to get a newsletter for easy reference when they are at home.
