Thank for the article Nell. Another program that is available to seniors is call CARE (CAll REassurance) and is likewise available to seniors from their local police or sheriff's office for free. If the local community does not offer this service, seniors (and family members) can subscribe to this service online for a fee. The website that lists the communities where CARE is available and where to subscribe is www.callingcare.com.

Great article Nell, I didn't know about the free phone check ins offered by many police stations. Thanks for the tip. I work for a nation-wide organization of in-home care providers and I just wanted to share one piece of advice with the readers. Please be careful on who you invite into your loved one's home. There has been a big rise in eldercare scams since the beginning of the recession. If you have any in-home care questions, please feel free to visit our blog and ask one of our experts.
