Which agencies help older adults in Orange County?
The Orange County Office for the Aging, (845) 615-3700, is the county's Area Agency on Aging, the door to NY Connects, HIICAP Medicare counseling, home-delivered meals, caregiver respite and EISEP home care; Adult Protective Services answers at (845) 291-2800.
Residents of nursing homes and adult care facilities in the county can call the Hudson Valley Long Term Care Ombudsman Program, (845) 229-4680. No PACE program lists Dutchess or Orange in its service area as of November 2026, so Medicaid home care here runs through Managed Long Term Care plans; NY Connects (1-800-342-9871) can confirm whether that has changed.
