The St. Lawrence County Office for the Aging has started a free telephone reassurance program for older adults to help address isolation and depression concerns due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In addition to checking on the physical well-being of the client, the program also reduces loneliness and provides an opportunity to be in regular phone contact with another person.
Weekly calls from friendly volunteers ensure their health and well-being, and help identify problems before they escalate into more serious hardships.
For more information, or to sign up for the program, call (315) 386-4730.
