Help Prevent Senior Isolation During COVID-19 - Senior Calls

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Meals on Wheels of Southwest OH & Northern KY

Call and check on seniors during a time where, unfortunately, they are isolated. In doing these calls you will be provided a script and a series of questions to ask the seniors. These questions will help us identify what other needs seniors may have during this crisis. Calls take place Mondays at 1:00 p.m. and Wednesday and Friday at 10:00 a.m. We ask that volunteers stay on the calls for at least 90 - 120 minutes. You do need a computer with internet access and the microphone capabilities as calls are made right from the computer (no phone is needed). If you've participated in Hangout calls, Zoom, etc. your computer should be compatible. Up for the challenge? Here's what you'll need to do: 1) Visit this link to sign up https://www.mobilize.us/mow/event/265767/ - you will have to select Monday, Wednesday, and/or Friday at the scheduled start time 2) You will receive an email with next steps and a youtube video to help provide direction 3)) You will receive a couple of reminder emails of your scheduled call. You can use this email to access the phone bank when it is time for you to complete calls
