Friendship Connection
- Research shows loneliness occurs more often to seniors and elderly loved ones which can often impact their overall health and mental stability. Talking with another person can help change the cognitive decline associated with being alone.
- Socializing with another person often brings smiles, laughter and joy!
- Often family members want to be there for senior loved ones but due to demanding schedules or distance apart don’t have the time to connect as much as they would like to. This is one way to show them you care and are thinking of them.
Our Friendship Connections memberships provide time to talk to another senior over the phone without leaving your home. Members are paired together based on similar interests and experiences. Members will be contacted during a pre scheduled time to talk with another member.
Each call varies in length and depends on the mutual communication of the members on the call. Typically conversations last between 20 and 45 minutes.
Any and everything. Many members talk about common everyday topics, thoughts about the good old days in the past, their family, pets and the news.
Phone calls with other members provide an opportunity for seniors to socialize with each other in the comfort of their own home. The time and day for phone calls are preselected to meet each member’s schedule and needs. Phone calls are periodically monitored for safety which allows members to feel comfortable talking over the phone.
