Pop-in Visits
If you're looking for someone to check on you or your loved one at lunchtime, our Pop-in Visits might be just what you are looking for!
About the Pop-in Visit service
Pop-in Visits are five minute lunchtime visits, which can help you to feel safer in your home and provide you with the reassurance that someone will check in on you on the days you want.
Our Pop-in Visits can include the following:
- Regular contact with a friendly face
- Making sure you are okay
- Making you a drink
- Contacting someone on your behalf if you are not feeling yourself
- Checking on something specific, such as making sure that you are wearing your community alarm pendant
- Medication Prompts, if required. Click here to find out more about Medication Prompts
This service is currently only available in Hertfordshire.
