Keeping You Socially Connected
A Friendly Voice is Only One Call Away
If you or a loved one suffers from isolation or loneliness, or could just use a friendly voice to talk to, Wellness Calls are for you. Wellness Calls help you feel connected to your community, stay safe, and live more independently.
We are currently offering two types of Wellness Call Plans:
Check-In Calls
- Brief calls to touch base and make sure that our client is OK
- Ensure that they are comfortable completing their basic daily living activities such as taking medications, getting proper nutrition, etc.
- Assess the client’s mood and any concerns for safety in the home
Conversational Calls
- Longer calls allowing for the client to discuss items addressed by check-in calls and discuss topics of their choice such as family, hobbies, current events, and more
- Engage individuals and give them a sense of connection
- A great option for family members who have a loved one that could use a periodic check-in or social stimulation
- We provide the contact person a report of our conversations so they know what has been discussed

“Before Wellness Calls, I didn't have that regular check-in to see how I was doing with my health and well-being in general. Now after getting them for this time period, I feel like I have that ease of someone checking in on me personally to see how things are going plus to assist with some resources as needed or various suggestions, etc. Jeff has a good grasp on understanding my situation with my physical ailments, disabilities and living situation and works with me to further help with any issues or even to talk about my hobbies and likes and dislikes to take my mind off my disabilities and health issues. He's a great person and recommend him for anyone looking to use this resource.”
