Joe's
daily walk started off uneventfully. But a few blocks from home, his
foot caught on a fallen limb. He tumbled to the ground, breaking his
hip. Unable to get up and with no one in sight to lend assistance,
he was forced to lie on the ground until someone came along to help.
If he'd had a cell phone with him, he could have called for
emergency assistance. By collecting cell phones that seniors can use
in emergencies, the newly created Logan County Triad is
working to make sure local seniors don't face this situation.
The Triad is asking for donations of cell phones, which will be
provided to county residents over the age of 60 who do not have cell
phone service. The donated phones will have personal information
removed and will be programmed to only dial 911.
Donated cell phones can be dropped off at The Christian Village,
1507 Seventh St. The phone and all phone accessories should be
placed in a plastic bag. All brands, makes and models will be
accepted.
Seniors without cell phones who would like to participate in the
program should call... (number to come).
The Triad is part of a national community policing initiative of
law enforcement professionals, seniors and community groups working
together to meet the crime-safety needs of seniors. Marcia Cook of
The Christian Village and Sarah Powell of Senior Services are
co-chairs.
