Community Support Services

Sometimes isolation settles around even a very independent person. For members of the Tri-Valley community living at home, volunteer-based Community Support Services are like fresh air, bringing in companionship on a regular basis. This comes through a variety of services:

Friendly Visitor is a way to have regular visits, to chat and socialize. This service offers family members the security of knowing someone else is looking in.

Companion provides regular visits to homebound elders offering socialization
and support. In some instances,
companions and those they visit may venture out for brief errands or for medical needs.

Telephone Reassurance gives elders regular contact by telephone. It’s a way to get support and just have someone there to listen and share thoughts with.

All three of these services reach scores of seniors in our communities each year because their neighbors are generous enough to volunteer. Volunteers receive training and orientation and give their time and good will.

Older residents of the Tri-Valley service area should not hesitate to accept this good will and contact us about these and other Community Support Services.
