News Release

County Unveils New Website For Aging Population
01/15/2008

The Schenectady County Legislature and the Schenectady County Department of Senior and Long Term Care Services announced today that the Department’s web site is now active and available to the public.

The primary goal of the web site is to provide information to seniors who reside in Schenectady County about the many services that are available to them. The web site layout and design is intended to be user friendly and easy to navigate. “A web site for a department like ours must address many needs” commented Cathryn Bern-Smith, Manager of the Department. “It is imperative to address the needs of senior citizens seeking information, which means it must be easy to use and should be visually appealing. This is a way for us to get our message out that is easy and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week”.
