| Are you OK? Program |
| The Sheriff's Office is currently implementing a system to check
on elderly citizens in the county. The automated dialing system, dubbed
the "Are you OK?" program, will enable elderly citizens
to alert us at the touch of a button if anything is amiss. If alerted,
a deputy will be sent to check on the citizen to ensure that nothing
is wrong. This will make it possible for shut-ins and ill citizens
to receive adequate emergency care. A database of names is currently
being gathered, and the program will be in full use soon. |
