General Welfare & Support Services
About Us
We provide regular and pre-scheduled telephone reassurance services to suit your needs. All calls are made by friendly staff and volunteers, so you can look forward to a familiar and friendly voice on the other end of the line.
How we can connect:
- Friendship calls
Enjoy a friendly chat over the telephone with a like-minded companion and improve your social connections. - Security calls
We’ll call you daily to check-in on your wellbeing. If there’s no answer, we will take action to make sure everything is OK, including calling emergency contacts. If necessary, we’ll ask Queensland Ambulance Service to do a welfare check. - Respite calls
Respite calls can be made after your return home from hospital, or while family or friends are away to ensure you’re always being heard.
This service is available throughout Queensland.
