FREE Senior CHECK-UP™

Free Senior Check-Up Call

Fairfield Family Care is offering a FREE new service called CHECK-UP™

Anyone who lives alone can fall, become ill, or have something go wrong in the house when no one is around to help. Family and friends are often busy and they do not always remember or have time to check in daily.

Now, Fairfield Family Care will provide a daily “safety check” phone call…. and give peace of mind to seniors who live alone. Family, friends and neighbors will have confidence in knowing that their loved ones are safe.

CHECK-UP™ also provides seniors much needed daily socialization and telephone reassurance so they know that they are “not alone.”

HERE IS HOW IT WORKS…

• Fairfield Family Care will call once each day.
• If there is no answer, we will wait 15 minutes and call again.
• If still no answer, a third attempt will be made.
• If we do not get an answer after the third attempt, we will call the person listed as the emergency contact or neighbor.
• We will also call the emergency contact if we detect signs of distress or if we feel that medical attention may be necessary.If you or your loved one would like to receive a free daily phone call from Monday through Friday, simply call us at 203-295-3477 or 914-930-6787 or e-mail us at

Nothing – there is no charge for the “check up” – yes, that’s right, it’s FREE!

What if I don’t answer?

Our staff will allow the phone to ring up to 15 times.  If there is no answer, they will call back to try again in about 15 minutes.  If there is still no answer (third attempt), they will call your designated emergency contacts.
