Reassurance Calling Program
Are you or a loved one a senior living in Ocean County? Do you want to feel more connected and secure? Our Reassurance Calling Program is here to help!
The CONTACT Cares Reassurance Calling Program is designed to support seniors who may be feeling lonely or disconnected. At designated times, participants receive friendly calls from from CONTACT Cares, offering a much-needed touchpoint of socialization.
This service provides:
- Friendly Socialization: Enjoy a chat to brighten your day and reduce feelings of isolation.
- Wellness Checks: Our calls serve as a safety check, offering peace of mind to you and your loved ones.
Referrals to the program can be made by the potential client, health care provider, clergy member, neighbors or loved ones. If you do not answer the phone, a neighbor, friend or family member you select, will be contacted to make sure that you are safe. If you would like to receive friendly scheduled phone calls from CONTACT Cares, please call 732-966-9330. Once enrolled, participants will begin receiving regular check-in calls, tailored to fit their schedules and preferences.
A huge thank you to the Ocean County Board of Commissioners who have generously provided a grant that has partially funded this program.
