The SAV (Sheriff's Auxiliary Volunteers) has a Telecare Program in which an individual can sign up for the program and receive a phone call every day to be sure they are ok. If there is no answer, a volunteer will go to the home to check on them. Just give the SAV a call to register for yourself or if you know someone who may be alone.
