Sincèrement, Aaron Burry Directeur général Services des parcs, des loisirs et de la culture November 16, 2009 ROTIS Line Offers Help to Vulnerable Seniors ROTIS Line Offers Help to Vulnerable Seniors Are you concerned about a senior in your community? Are you unsure how to help? Help the Aged (Canada) has collaborated with Ottawa Public Health, the Regional Geriatric Program of Eastern Ontario, VHA Health and Home Support, and a network of community resources to offer the Reaching Out to Isolated Seniors (ROTIS) program. This program allows community members to help connect vulnerable seniors with assistance they might need as they age. Research shows that up to 10% of seniors in Ottawa have little or no meaningful contact or support in times of need. This can happen gradually as people age. An isolated senior may be the sole caregiver for an increasingly ill spouse, and may become more isolated if their spouse passes away. Perhaps they leave their community and their social network to live closer to their children. Sometimes physical or mental health issues make it difficult to go outside. Some seniors isolate themselves. They may be afraid to lose their independence, or be embarrassed by physical or mental health changes. Other seniors don’t consider themselves “isolated,” but seem to fall more often, neglect themselves, or have financial problems. Some seniors know their health is deteriorating, but don’t know whom to call for help. Isolated seniors are vulnerable to falling through cracks in the medical and social systems. ROTIS helps seniors maintain their independence and overall well-being by connecting them to appropriate services such as fall prevention, chronic disease management, mental health support, spiritual care, home helpers, and friendly visitors. If you are concerned about a senior in your community, please speak with them or call the ROTIS line at 613-562-6381. For more information about ROTIS, including volunteer opportunities or to book presentations for your workplace or community group, please contact Olivia Guiliani (Olivia@helptheaged.ca ) or Andrea Monahan (Andrea.Monahan@ottawa.ca ), call 613-232-0727, or visit www.isolatedseniors.ca.
