Live Your Best Life!

Helping Seniors Live Their Best Life!

At The Paducah Senior Center, we believe that “Aging is the Best Part of Living!” Our mission is to provide services that allow local seniors to maintain their independence, meet new like-minded friends and enrich their lives and the lives of those around them.

We are a non-profit organization that offers this membership free to qualified seniors. All activities we offer are low to no cost for members in an effort to make them as inclusive as possible. Donations help us achieve that goal. If you’d like to help the Paducah Senior Center, visit our donation page to make a pledge and help us keep this program thriving!

Services for Active Seniors

Membership with the Paducah Senior Center comes with a wealth of benefits for participating seniors! Not only will members be invited for a congregate meal for lunch each Monday through Friday ($3 donation suggested), but members will also have access to a number of activities and opportunities at the Senior Center and in the community.
Congregate Meals

Congregate Meals

All members are invited to our dining room for a congregate meal prepared each Monday through Friday. All meals are prepared by a certified dietician and consist of ⅓ the adult daily food requirement. These hot and nutritious meals use low sodium recipes and consist of a meat, vegetables, whole wheat roll, fruit and/or dessert. Coffee, iced tea and milk are also served with every meal.

E-Homes Services

E-Homes Services

For McCracken County members who are 60 years of age or older, own their own home, and live within the county lines, we offer labor services from trained staff and community volunteers for minor home improvements.

These projects are intended for members who wish to remain in their homes but have needs for accessibility modifications, security, maintenance and general repairs.

Projects are accepted through an application and approval process and are performed on the basis of need. If you’d like to apply for an E-Homes project, you can find that application by clicking ‘Learn More.’

Senior Medicare Patrol

Senior Medicare Patrol

Our Senior Medicare Patrol is here to educate members and help them take an active role in the detection and prevention of health care fraud and abuse.

Alana Miller, our Senior Medicare Patrol Coordinator, along with her staff of volunteers, help educate beneficiaries on how to monitor their accounts and be on the lookout for deceptive healthcare practices, such as:

  • Bundling charges to hide non-covered fees.
  • Filing bogus claims for products or services never rendered.
  • Altering billing codes to inflate Medicare claims.
  • Ordering unnecessary products or services to increase revenues.
  • & more.

The SMP recruits, trains and guides retired professionals to assist as volunteers to help other seniors become better healthcare consumers.

Services for Homebound Seniors

We are also proud to offer services for members who are homebound, living alone or otherwise unable to visit our facility in person. Our homebound services are designed to assist seniors in a way that will enable them to maintain their independence at home by mitigating some of the risks that come with everyday tasks.
Meal Delivery

Meal Delivery

Meal delivery is a limited program available to our members in McCracken and Marshall Counties for homebound seniors who are unable to attend in-person or who otherwise qualify. We can offer this service through our partnership with the Meals on Wheels program and through the help of our wonderful volunteers.
