Expanding the area for aging

Posted

MONTICELLO, NY — Sullivan County’s Office for the Aging is back to welcoming walk-ins.

“A significant renovation and expansion of our offices is largely complete,” said Office for the Aging Director Lise-Anne Deoul. “So we’re glad to invite everyone to stop by between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays. We’re on the first floor of the government center at 100 North St. in Monticello.”

The office closed to walk-ins in February in order to undertake a major reconfiguration of the space, including expanding into the area previously occupied by the Veterans Service Agency (which itself is in expanded quarters across the government center’s lobby). The new, more spacious facilities better accommodate anyone with disabilities and also provide privacy in fully enclosed offices rather than cubicles.

Appointments are still preferred, so that staff are available to assist as quickly and efficiently as possible.

“Call ahead to 845/807-0241—we may be able to help right over the phone,” said Laura Quigley, community resources commissioner, whose division oversees the office. “Emails are welcome any time, including to the general mailbox of sullivanofa@sullivanny.us.”

Dan Hust serves as the Sullivan County director of communications.
