Senior Helpers Emergency Procedures are in Effect For Central Texas

Due to the potential for a weather related emergency, primarily icy and hazardous road conditions, Senior Helpers has initiated its Emergency Preparedness Procedures as of 9 AM CST today. Our main goal is to SAFELY provide coverage for ALL clients throughout Thursday and Friday as weather conditions permit.

Our priority are clients that do not have a primary caregiver close by. Senior Helpers will staff these clients under all conditions without interruption. For those clients that do have a Primary Responsible Caregiver, that can assume caregiving responsibility,  Senior Helpers has notified them of the potential of unsafe travel conditions for Senior Helpers' Caregivers and has alerted them as to their responsibilities.

This is a precaution at this time and Senior Helpers plans to staff all shifts. If there are delays or postponements Senior Helpers will call to inform you as quickly as possible.

Please call the Senior Helpers Primary Phone Number if there is a change in the client's condition or the Primary Responsible Caregiver's availability @ 512-388-4357. If the Auto Attendant Answers please press 0 [ZERO] and leave a message in our Emergency Mailbox. All staff will receive this message immediately and return your call within 10 minutes.

Our phone system is on a battery backup and can withstand up to a 2 hour power outage. If you have not heard back from Senior Helpers within 10 minutes please call the following mobile numbers:

512-797-6256
512-791-9321
979-676-3355

Please call us if you have any questions or if you lose power. We will work with you to ensure your or your loved one's safety.

Sincerely,

Frank Hayes
President
