My Nonprofit Reviews

I am a medical provider working with the elderly. Social isolation is an indicator of worsening outcomes and higher costs. I found this organization on accident when looking for a local phone buddy in NYC. Even though my patients are in NYC, Friendly Voices accommodated my patients. The coordinator gave me detailed information about what to expect so I could advise the patients. The buddies were very accountable, when one of my patients was hospitalized the coordinator reached out to me b/c her buddy was worried about her having not been able to reach her. Although I couldn't share medical information, I was able to pass on to the family that the buddy was thinking about her. In a very lonely world for the elderly, this organization has been a bright light. I am so grateful that I found them.
