The 911 Center operates the "Are You OK?" program, which telephones elderly citizens on a daily basis who have subscribed to this free service. Communications personnel call the elderly person at a preset time and if the call is not answered, communications personnel will call again.
If no answer is received on the second call, communications personnel contact the individuals listed on the subscriber application as emergency contacts to determine if the subscriber is supposed to be at home or not.
The subscriber notifies the communications center in advance if they are not going to be home on a certain day and is placed on a no call list until the subscriber returns home.
Cobb County citizens who are eligible to participate are required to complete an “Are you O.K.?” Field Interview form and an “Are you O.K.?” Subscriber Agreement Form. The forms are available from the Communications Center upon request. The form can be mailed, hand delivered by City of Kennesaw personnel or picked up in person. The forms must be returned to the Program Coordinator (911 Director or designee) to ensure the field interview form is properly retained.
