Coronavirus and the Elderly

The County of Delaware and COSA want to assure the public that we are doing everything possible to keep residents safe and healthy.

We ask that everyone keep in mind the elderly and those who are most vulnerable to suffer the most if contracting the virus. Check on your elderly neighbors and offer to help in any way you are able.

If you are a senior or know of a senior who would benefit from a friendly phone call from a COSA staff member to check on your/their well-being or to discuss your concerns, call 610-490-1300.

The County of Delaware has a special page on their website dedicated to the latest Coronavirus news. Information can be found at www.delcopa.gov and click on the button marked "Coronavirus".

Several grocery stores in our area are adjusting their hours to allow seniors their own time to shop during this pandemic.
