OKEachDay

A daily check-in system that is based on a very simple check process. OKEachDay may appeal to people who want the peace of mind provided by a regular check-in. It is perfect for older people who live on their own, who like to be in control, want to feel safer and want to help reassure friends and family.

Depending on the device it just needs to be plugged into a wall power socket or your own telephone, you will not need to have another phone line installed. You will still be able to use either your phone or your OKEachDay phone for normal calls and to connect with broadband internet. Your phone number will not change and your calls will be itemised on your provider’s bill as normal.

You will be asked to provide up to three nominated contacts, these can be friends, family or neighbours who live nearby and are able to visit you if OKEachDay are unable to contact you. If you live in sheltered accommodation, your nominated contacts could be your housing officer.

If you need to change your contact, you can just lift the handset and call the OKEachDay team using the Customer Service button and your records will be updated.

The OKEachDay button can be pressed anytime before your agreed cut-off time, this time will have been chosen by you and can also be updated by you. It is only at this agreed time if you have not made contact, that the OKEachDay team would call you. If you press the button by mistake it will simply log the button press, it is not a problem.

If you are going on holiday or have an appointment and won’t be able to press the button before your agreed time, you just need to pick up the handset and press the Customer Services button which will connect you free of charge to let them know.
