WHAT IS TELECARE?

Telecare is a service through which A Better Way makes daily calls to older, disabled, or homebound adults. We offer a friendly voice to help brighten our clients’ days, as well as comfort in knowing that someone is checking in on them. Telecare provides comfort and joy not only to those being called, but also to their loved ones, knowing that someone is checking in each day.

There were days when I would’ve forgotten my medicine, and Telecare has been really helpful for me.
