A non-intimidating form of technology that helps seniors stay
connected with their loved ones at all times
While
seniors often shy away from technology, the Ageing at Home App can be easily
integrated into their household. It looks like a picture frame that
shows family photos. Different applications such as medication
reminders can be included. A flashing pill appears on
the touch screen for information about the medication. Emails from friends and
family scroll along the bottom of the screen keeping it very easy to
stay in touch. With the touch of a screen other applications can
provide music or games to keep mom or dad entertained.
How it works
PICTURE FRAME:
A family member or caregiver can easily upload pictures via the
internet and
their loved one can enjoy an ever-changing stream of images that will
both delight and keep them connected with what is going on in
their family.
Requirements for the Ageing At Home App:
YOU:
- buy an Android tablet
(eg. Amazon
Kindle Fire or Kobo Vox)
- upload pictures and send
emails
- choose the best applications from Google's Android market
(often for free)
WE:

technical support

sugars
Keep it simple at first for ease of use, and then, as you learn what
works for you, the possibilities are endless...
