Senior Call Check
There are a number of new and first-of-its-kind programs helping Maryland seniors, that came out of COVID-19. These include Senior Call Check and the Caregiver Services Corps (CSC).
CSC is a group of trained volunteers who offer back-up support to adults aged 65 and older. It’s perfect for a caregiver who gets sick and cannot provide care for a limited time. The Caregiver Service Corps is intended to provide support for temporary, urgent needs like bathing, taking medication, using technology or getting food.
All CSC participants are also signed up for daily, automated calls with the latest COVID-19 information.
This is a free daily phone call to check-in with Maryland seniors.
In addition to automated daily calls, there are live calls once-a-week calls from a caring and compassionate person.
