This program assists safety forces in reaching our senior residents during an emergency. The Fire Department installs a lock box (2 inches wide by 4 inches long) onto the top of the door jamb on the side or back door. This box holds a master key and emergency information, including the name and phone of the physician, medical conditions, medications, allergies, hospital preference, and information on pets, if applicable. Should you require assistance from emergency personnel and are unable to answer the door, the contents of the safety lock box are available to police, fire, or EMS. This system allows faster emergency response while preventing damage to a home. The cost of a lock box is $35. Interested senior residents can click this link to fill out the form and email it to [email protected] or visit the Senior Center for a paper form. Social ServicesOur Social Worker, Sandy Milos,  offers information and referrals to a wide variety of resources for Seniors, such as Medicare, Medicaid, Senior Living, Home Health Care, Utility Assistance Programs, and many other programs and services offered to seniors.  Please call Sandy Milos at 440-356-4463 or email for assistance. Technical AssistanceOn Wednesdays at 3:30, Fairview Park High School students will be at the Senior Center to help with a phone, tablet, computer, headphones, or Bluetooth device.  No appointment is needed!

Wooster Honors Sister City Partnership with Oromo Gifting Ceremony

In a symbolic gesture of international friendship, Mayor Bob Reynolds was honored with a Gabi, a traditional Oromo scarf. The scarf was presented by Professor Warren Dick of the Ohio State University Agricultural Technical Institute (ATI). In Oromo culture, the Gabi is more than a textile; it is a profound symbol of respect, honor, and heartfelt welcome. This presentation commemorates the ongoing Friendship Cities Agreement between Wooster, Ohio, and Woliso, Ethiopia. The partnership aims to foster cultural exchange and collaboration between the two communities, bridging thousands of miles through shared values. "This exchange is a beautiful reminder that our communities are woven together by mutual understanding," said Mayor Bob Reynolds. "The Gabi represents the warmth and strength of the bond we continue to build with our friends in Woliso." The City of Wooster remains committed to its global friendships and celebrates the diverse cultural threads that enrich the local community.
