HowRU™

Are you living alone or do you know someone who is?

Have you ever wondered who would check on you each day, or what would happen if you needed help and no one realized it? For many Seniors living alone, this is a very real concern.

The HowRU™ program was created to provide peace of mind through a daily automated wellness call designed to ensure someone is checking on a Senior every day.

Available to Seniors age 50 and older this life saving program has helped save 14 lives to date by triggering timely assistance when a Senior needed help and could not reach out on their own.

The HowRU™ program is provided at no cost and made possible through donations.

Support and reassurance can make living alone feel less uncertain. We’re here to help.

How Does It Work?

a436f9de-06f8-46f4-9700-d40c04b59256

STEP 1

Subscriber receives a daily computer generated call at a designated time.

STEP 2

If no answer a 2nd call will be placed in 30 minutes.

STEP 3

If no response to the two calls a designated emergency contact will be called.

STEP 4

If subscriber and emergency contacts cannot be reached the non-emergency number will be called and the police will be requested to do a wellness check at the home.

“After becoming a widow, I was afraid to live on my own. What if I fall? Who would find me? The HowRU™ phone call every morning is like a friend calling to ask, “How are you today? Are you OK?” They call daily, bring a smile to my face and a sense of joy to my life.”

“When I heard about this program, my first thought was that I really didn’t need it because my family lives here in Henderson and we talk on the phone every day. But my daughters agreed that it would give them greater peace of mind to know I was being monitored every morning. Now, after signing up, I think so too. As a single resident, HowRU™ is a valuable service for my family and me.”
