Are You OK?

Telephone Reassurance Program for Senior and Homebound Citizens

 		 The Telephone Reassurance Program is a computerized system designed to call you once a day and ask, "ARE YOU O.K.? (R.U.O.K.)"

Here is how it works!

A computer will make calls to subscribers at approximately the same time each day. When answered, a recorded voice will let the senior or homebound person know that this is their daily call. If the subscriber is okay, he/she simply hangs up the telephone.
If the subscriber does not answer or if the telephone is busy, two or more calls are made, then the computer sounds an "Alert." At this point, we will contact someone who has previously agreed  to assist in the case of an emergency or emergency services personnel will be dispatched to the subscriber's home to check out a possible emergency.

There will be no charge of any kind for this service.

To qualify, the subscriber must be:

(1) 60 years of age or older and lives alone.
(2) Homebound, disabled of any age and lives alone.
(3) A resident of the City of College Park.
 (Special circumstances will be evaluated upon request.)

For further information, interested parties should call the College Park Police Department at (404) 761-3131.

 
  File your short form on-line! Just fill out the following form and click submit. The form will be received by the College Park Police Department's Community Policing Unit. Once the form is received, the resident will be contacted by one of our Community Police Officers to fill out an Interview Form that requires more information.

Thank You!
