THE CRISIS INTERVENTION AND COUNSELLING TELEPHONE LINE FOR THE ELDERLY
Loneliness (isolation), Very old age, Poor health state, Loss of job, Poor access to services (e. g. ICT, means of transport)
The crisis intervention and counselling line for the elderly (800 157 157), is available free of charge to all older people throughout the Czech Republic. The line can be accessed round-the clock 365 days a year.
It is designed for older people who have found themselves in a difficult life situation due to their social circumstances or deterioration of their health condition. Availability of such service gives the clients a feeling of safety, provides them with support and guidance, thus bringing them relief and giving them hope, which makes it easier for them to cope with their situation and return to the pre-crisis level. It represents help in a crisis, including counselling and where needed, also further follow-up services for the clients and their close relatives. Currently it can be used in real time only by one calling client at a time. The goal of the project is to make it possible (in technical as well as staffing terms) for at least two clients to access the line at the same time in the “peak hours“ – when most clients use it. Another important objective is to maintain the current level, stabilize and develop the operation of the innovated line.
