About Meals on Wheels South Florida
Meals on Wheels South Florida delivers meals to older adults in Broward who need help staying nourished at home. Its program is intended for adults over 60 who live in the county and are homebound, recovering from an illness or surgery, or unable to shop for and prepare food safely.
The organization says it plans and prepares meals around older adults’ nutritional needs. The program page presents delivery as a way to support daily nutrition and independence; it does not publish one menu for every client or a general price, so families should ask which service format is available and whether there is a charge before enrolling.
Along with food, drivers or volunteers may offer a brief friendly visit and routine wellness checks. A delivery visit is not medical care or emergency response, but it can give relatives reassurance that someone came by. The organization also runs a companion pet program for enrolled clients who meet its conditions.
To get started, the site invites people to apply for meals and call (954) 731-8770. Have the Broward address, age, limitations on leaving home or cooking, and recovery details if relevant. Staff should confirm eligibility, delivery frequency, available diets, cost, and start time; an application should not be treated as immediate enrollment.
The listed office is at 4355 W. Sunrise Boulevard in Plantation. Hollywood residents are within the organization’s county service area, although its office is elsewhere. For someone who can leave home and wants a shared meal, Broward’s Area Agency on Aging lists congregate meal sites and local contacts; each site has separate eligibility and hours.
