Young man in WIsconsin started a company called chefs for seniors. They come to your home and prepare a weeks worth of food. The goal was to keep seniors independent . I thought this would be a great service to have here. Love to have this for my mom

Would you use such a service?

I would love this idea for my dad!

While we don't need the service, I think it sounds like a great idea!!

with all due respect to your infinite wisdom, this is not Chefs for Seniors but rather a local copycat.

What if it costs $75 for a weeks dinners and lunches for labor plus the cost of the ingredients? Labor include shopping, cooking and clean-up in your kitchen using your kitchen equipment.

I believe there was also someone who has advertised in the Daily Sun in the past that they would cook a weeks worth of meals at your home.

Mom and I would love this!

Also with all due respect, people were responding to the OP, who said, "I thought this would be a great service to have here. Love to have this for my mom. Would you use such a service?

Nobody said it had to be the particular service named.

I was hoping that there would be something like this here. I think many end up in assisted living because of being unable to prepare food for themselves . Wouldn't it be wonderful to have someone cook and visit weekly ensuring nutrition and company as an added benefit . Not to mention how expensive assisted living places costs. Not saying there is no place for assisted living but maybe delayed a bit if you want to stay home

Sounds like Meals on Wheels, but better!
Any business that allows seniors to live independently for longer is a great idea.

Are you thinking about it as a possible business venture? We know you enjoy cooking.

I think $75 plus ingredients sounds very reasonable.

Is that the actual cost or are you guessing?
