Directory Of Services

RUOK Phone Directory The following listings include cities, counties, sheriff's offices, and other public organizations that provide telephone reassurance programs to their communities. Many of the older calling services (not associated with Database Systems Corp.) are referred to as RUOK programs, and are either automated or employ community volunteers. With manual RUOK programs, volunteers donate their time to call home bound individuals such as the elderly or handicapped. These calls provide reassurance that the resident is OK.

For a comparison with an older, automated RUOK system, visit the RUOK vs. CARE web page.

Database Systems Corp. (DSC) provides emergency alert services and community contact systems. These systems can also automatically call households checking on individuals to ensure their well-being. This program is referred to as our CARE (Call Reassurance) solution. This service can re-dial the number several times and if there is no response, a message can be provided to a monitoring center informing them that a resident is not responding to this call or requires assistance. These programs are effective and have helped residents who were unable to request assistance on their own when injured or stricken.

DSC also provides messaging services for the hearing impaired including our TDD / TTY phone messaging service.

Contact DSC at (602) 265-5968 or use our Contact Us web page to obtain further information about our CARE (Call Reassurance) program. Also contact us if you would like your organization to be listed in this directory of community service providers.
