Hospital offers Telecare

Hudson Hospital & Clinics offers Telecare, a free daily check-in service, to help seniors feel safe while living independently. Participants in the Telecare service receive a call each morning from a hospital volunteer, and if there is no answer, a friend or family member is contacted to determine if assistance is needed.

If the recipient is recovering from an illness, or has fallen, this daily call could be key to notifying a friend or family member to check in on them. The free service is open to anyone living alone who would appreciate a daily check-in phone call. For more information contact Hudson Hospital Volunteer Services at (715) 531-6070.
