Cost

There is no fee associated with the telephone reassurance program.

The Callers

Telephone reassurance calls are made by trained volunteers with ONE CARE Home & Community Support Services. Each volunteer has completed a police and reference check.

Volunteers are placed on a rotating schedule, so if a client receives daily calls the callers will often change from day to day.

Volunteer Opportunity: Telephone Reassurance Volunteer Volunteers place telephone calls to reassurance clients each weekday at a prearranged time (8:45 am to 12:00 pm). Volunteers are trained to initiate emergency procedures if a call remains unanswered after a designated period of time. Time requirement is at least once a month, and calls are made from the comfort of your home.
