How Technology Benefits Seniors
Technology offers numerous benefits for seniors, including:
- Staying Connected: Video calls, social media, and messaging apps allow seniors to maintain close relationships with family and friends, regardless of distance.
- Health Management: Telehealth services, health apps, and wearable devices enable seniors to monitor their health and manage medical appointments from their homes.
- Entertainment and Education: From streaming movies to online classes, technology provides endless opportunities for learning and entertainment.
- Enhanced Safety: Smart home devices, like security systems and emergency response services, provide peace of mind for seniors living independently.
Our online family portal provides peace of mind
Staying connected and keeping each other informed is crucial to seniors and their families, especially when family members can’t be with their loved ones as frequently as they would like. In fact, keeping in close contact with family members is one of the greatest sources of joy for many seniors. Comfort Keepers’ free, online family portal provides families with the peace of mind they need while their loved one is in our care. Our online portal enables caregivers to share updates regarding your loved one’s daily activities, care plans, and potential areas of concern. Family members can also easily ask questions and add requests within the portal.
Getting Seniors Ready for Switching from 3G to 5G
Switching from the 3G to 5G wireless network will enable more reliable connections, better coverage, and higher call quality. Still, some seniors may require upgrading their cell phones to this newer technology. At Comfort Keepers, we know keeping in close contact with loved ones can lift seniors' spirits and improve their physical, emotional, and mental well-being. That’s why we are sharing how to prepare for the 3G network shutdown to ensure there are no interruptions in how they stay connected to family and friends.
