One daily call for them. Peace of mind for you.

Daily wellness check-in calls for seniors and loved ones living independently.

Senior Call is a daily check-in call service — sometimes called a telephone reassurance program — for seniors and any adult 18+ who lives alone or manages a health condition or disability. We call at the time you choose, on any landline or mobile phone. No app, no pendant, no equipment to charge. If they answer, you get a text. If they don't, we try again about every 15 minutes, then alert everyone in their care circle by text and email at once. Where a local police department has partnered with us, a welfare check can be requested.

How it works

  1. Choose mornings (7, 8, 9 or 10 AM), evenings (5, 6 or 7 PM), or both, on the days you pick, in their local time zone.
  2. Senior Call phones them for a short, friendly check-in in English or Spanish.
  3. Answered and okay: you get a text and email, with a recording and transcript. No answer after three attempts, or a concerning answer: every care-circle contact is alerted at once.

Pricing

One plan with everything included: $9.99 per month (regularly $14.99) or $99 per year, with a 7-day free trial and $0 charged today. No contracts, cancel anytime. The police partnership program is free for departments nationwide.

Why proactive checks matter

About 16 million Americans 65 and older live alone (KFF analysis of U.S. Census data). In a BMJ study of adults over 90, about 8 in 10 times someone fell alone and couldn't get up, their medical alert button was never pressed. Senior Call doesn't wait for a button press — it calls every day. Founded by Kevon Cumberbatch, a law enforcement veteran with more than 20 years of service, Senior Call brings the police R.U.O.K. / senior roll call model to families in all 50 states.

Frequently asked questions

What is Senior Call?

Senior Call is a daily wellness check-in call service — sometimes called a telephone reassurance program — for seniors and any adult living alone. We call at the time you choose, on any phone. If they answer, you get a text. If they don't, we try again about every 15 minutes, then alert everyone in their care circle by text and email.

Do they need a smartphone, app, or pendant?

No. Senior Call works on any landline, flip phone, or smartphone. There is nothing to wear, charge, or install.

What happens if they don't answer?

We call up to three times, about 15 minutes apart. If there's still no answer, every care-circle contact gets a text and email at the same moment. Where a local police department has partnered with us, a welfare check can be requested.

How much does it cost?

$9.99 a month or $99 a year, with a 7-day free trial and nothing charged today. There's no contract, and you can cancel anytime.

Is Senior Call only for seniors?

No. Any adult 18+ who lives alone or manages a health condition or disability can be a member, and you can sign up for yourself.

What times can calls happen?

Morning calls at 7, 8, 9, or 10 AM and evening calls at 5, 6, or 7 PM, in their local time zone. Choose mornings, evenings, or both, on the days you pick.

Is Senior Call a replacement for 911 or a medical alert system?

Senior Call is a wellness check-in service, not a 911 or medical service. It's proactive — we call them every day — so it works even when someone can't press a button. In an emergency, always call 911.

Is it available in Spanish?

Yes. Calls, texts, emails, and the website are available in English and Spanish.
