Social Prescribing
Dossy is alleviating social isolation by leveraging dedicated volunteers to strengthen family support networks and foster meaningful community connections.
Why Prescribe Dossy?
Evidence-based research suggests that Dossy can alleviate loneliness and combat isolation, especially for those who experience technical challenges. Our platform offers on-demand social support through the Community Connect feature, with verified volunteers available around the clock. Staying connected is made easier for families, and community volunteers help strengthen the circle of support.
