Why do I need HomeSafe?

Perhaps Dean Martin sang it best, "Everybody needs somebody somehow." The Medford Township Police Division couldn't agree more. That's why we have implemented "Operation HomeSafe" Program. This program is designed to provide SENIOR CITIZENS and/or DISABLED PESONS who live alone, the opportunity to speak to a representative of the Police Department on a daily basis, just to make sur eyou haven't had any problems during the night.

This FREE program is available to any SENIOR or DISABLED person residing in Medford Township. You need only live alone and have a telephone. All YOU have to do is call 609-654-7511, between 6:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m., every day, Monday through Sunday. It is that simple. But if we don't hear from you, WE'LL WANT TO FIND OUT WHY, so we're going to call you. And if you don't answer your phone, we will call a neighbor or a family member, until we find out that you are Okay. In case we can't reach your neighbor or family member, or if they are unaware of your whereabouts, we will sned a police car to your house to make sure everything is okay.

But this doesn't mean that you will have to stay home every day. If you are taking a trip to Atlantic City or visiting someone, just let us know ahead of time and we will mark you off the list for that day or week.

If you want to participate in the "OPERATION HOMESAFE" Program, please download (required Adobe Acrobat reader) the form and complete the questionnaire and return it to the Medford Township Police Department, or give us a call at 609-654-7511 and we will arrange to pickk up the form for you.

We are here to Serve YOU!
