Caregiving
Telephone Assurance (TAP)
Telephone Assurance: This is a program that provides regular telephone calls to homebound elderly and disabled persons to check on their well-being and give people an opportunity to socialize. Relationships grow and last for years and years. Senior Services contracts with the American Red Cross to provide this service, and many organizations participate across Erie County. More information can be obtained by calling the Telephone Assurance Program at 878-2234.
