Helping Hands Senior Program

Our Goal is to provide emergency responders in our community with the most updated information readily available to better serve the residents of Goshen Twp.

Having information such as the patients name, address, medical history, allergies and medic actions saves precious minutes at residences and could prevent the of delay much needed care. Having this information available to responders prior to their arrival will help free up manpower to de al with the emergency and not with just the paperwork.

Many of the surrounding communities currently have some form of this program. We would like to adopt our own version to better serve the residents of Goshen Twp.

The Information obtained for the Helping Hands Program along with the highly trained and experienced personnel we have here at Goshen Twp will great improve patient care and public relations.

Not only will responders have up to date information, they will also be in contact with the program participants, checking in on their day to day lives, performing home safety inspections and being a friendly voice and a caring ear. With this program needless delays of patient care due to lost pill bottles and misplaced prescriptions will be obsolete.
