OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) is not an appropriate resource for this situation, as it deals with workplace safety and health issues. Options A, B, and C are all appropriate resources for information and assistance with elderly health care needs. AARP (American Association of Retired Persons) provides a wide range of resources and information specifically for seniors, while the Department of Health and Human Services and local community senior centers can provide information on available services and programs for the elderly in the area.
