Description

Telecare provides telephone reassurance to people living alone (i.e. homebound and elderly) who might require medical or emergency care. Volunteers provide daily phone contact to people who live alone and who feel reassured by outside contact. Clients call into Telecare between 8 am and 10 am every day. If a call is not received, a check-up call is placed promptly and if there is no response a relative or neighbor is contacted or, if necessary, the police are notified.
