Applications available for Voluntary Wellness Check Program

Applications are available for the City’s Voluntary Wellness Check program – designed for residents 60 and older and people of any age with special needs.   

To make life safer and more reassuring during times of local and regional emergencies, this voluntary City program is managed with support from Community Emergency Preparedness Academy (CEPA) volunteers.  

If an emergency or incident occurs within the City and volunteer support is available, participants will be contacted for a wellness telephone call. Information will be kept confidential and accessed for wellness check purposes only. CEPA volunteers selected to support this program will be trained and supervised by the City’s Emergency Operations Department. Wellness check calls or emails will be made twice a year to confirm information, make essential data changes where needed and practice emergency call-out procedures. 

This program is not meant to replace your personal emergency and disaster preparedness plans but will serve to identify residents who might need special assistance during a community disaster. In addition,  program participants can opt to receive periodic email updates on earthquake preparedness, managing extreme temperature emergencies and other topics regarding personal preparedness.  

Online applications are available at cityofmissionviejo.org/wellness-check-program.

Paper applications can be mailed or dropped off to the Norman P. Murray Community and Senior Center, 24932 Veterans Way, Mission Viejo , CA 92692 (Attention: Voluntary Wellness Check Program).
