Staying home with our support
Most of us want to live independently for as long as possible. But as we get older, we may need a little extra support.
We can monitor wellbeing 365 days a year through a service called OKEachDay. Simply press a button on your telephone, at a pre-arranged time every day, to let the team know you’re OK. Weather updates, important information and news about local events are all provided by the service too.
The Staying Home Team offer advice and support to help you remain at home safely. They can help arrange property adaptations if you need them, help you save money on fuel bills and check you're claiming any benefits you're entitled to.
If you think you, or someone you know may benefit from the Staying Home Service, you can contact the team using the link below.
