Abbotsford Peer Support for Seniors - Good Morning Program

Start Your Day with a Ring! Our good morning calls give interested seniors a telephone check on their physical/mental well being helping them maintain their independence. The calls assure the seniors of daily contact with the outside world, providing them peace of mind and a consistent social contact. The service is ideal for seniors who do not have any local family or support to check on them, even on a temporary basis. It is also good for seniors who are recovering from hospitalization, socially isolated or shut-in seniors or seniors temporarily alone when family members or caregivers are away. Calls may also be used as a reminder to take medication. The service is available from 9am - 10am Monday to Friday at a mutually agreeable time. Phone calls are made from the office, or in some cases, from a volunteer's home and are no more than 5 minutes in length. If the volunteer caller is unable to reach the senior, an emergency protocol is then followed. The senior is required to provide an emergency contact.
