1. Who can participate?

The Englewood Fire Department offers this service to all Englewood citizens who meet the criteria as mentioned above.

2. How does it work?

Every morning, between 8:30 am to 9:30 am, a member of the Fire Department will call the program participant (please note that calls may sometimes be slightly delayed due to emergency responses and the volume of residents participating in the program) to check that they are alright. If no answer, a second call will be made a few minutes later. If there is no answer on the second call, Fire Department units, including Emergency Medical Technicians, will be dispatched to the address to check on the welfare of the resident.

3. How Do I Get Started?

Before starting the program, a representative from the Fire Department will interview the applicant and/or their authorized representative. During this interview, we will collect medical data and other information which may be valuable in an emergency if the resident were unable to communicate. Information collected is confidential, in accordance with all applicable regulations, and the participants written authorization.
