Care Directions is a program of the Area Agency on Aging, Region One, Inc., a mid-sized nonprofit based in Phoenix, Arizona, operating in the field of individual and family services. It provides one-to-one case management for people living with HIV, pairing each client with a case manager who assesses needs and designs a tailored care plan. The care plans may include referrals to physicians, in-home nursing, meals, legal counseling, transportation, and assistance in accessing entitlement programs, affordable housing, or vocational rehabilitation, with flexibility to adapt to changing circumstances. Services are available in Maricopa County, and in Pinal County through a partnership with Mosaic, expanding access to residents beyond its primary service area. A notable recent development is a 2020 collaboration with the City of Phoenix to implement a program that checks in on senior citizens by phone to reduce isolation. For intake assessment or more information, the organization provides a contact number: 602-264-CARE.
