CARE Demonstration
CARE Editor


CARE Editor Phone Service Database Systems Corp. (DSC) provides a state-of-the-art telephone reassurance calling program, CARE (Call Reassurance) that contacts homebound individuals, particularly the elderly and handicapped, ensuring they are OK.

The CARE program calls a list of CARE members on a daily basis and if the CARE member does not respond to the phone call, CARE will notify a family or friend or contact a responsible community response group.

The CARE phone system and software is composed of two programs. The CARE Editor manages call member information and the CARE Manager ensures the smooth operation of the CARE phone system and software.

The following is a description and sample operation of the CARE Editor.
