Clackamas County Meals on Wheels recipients receive a complete midday meal five days a week. These meals
are carefully put together to meet much of the recommended daily allowance of nutrients. All meals are carefully monitored
for food safety and nutrition standards. Clackamas County Meals on Wheels contracts with a national food
production facility that is able to produce a cost-efficient, nutritionally balanced food plan. The meal sites often add
additional fresh fruits and desserts. Special meal plans are available for clients who have specific nutritional needs, including
low sugar for diabetes, or soft diets for those needing easily digested food. In addition to serving
seniors' nutritional needs, our local volunteer drivers provide a warm smile and a caring spirit.

650-5637 for the hearing impaired. After an initial phone pre-screening, a case worker will make an in-home
assessment of needs to determine if a senior is eligible for in-home support services such as home delivered meals.
