Senior Care Technology by Comfort Keepers
Integrating technology with in-home senior care for clients who continue to live independently at home
Comfort Keepers is the leading provider of non-medical elderly care services in the nation with a simple mission – helping seniors age safely, independently, and happily in their homes throughout their golden years. To maintain a high quality of service, promote transparency of care, and improve engagement and overall quality of life for clients placed in our care, we use a number of senior care technology solutions.
Transparency of Care
As we have seen countless times over, elderly care is certainly most effective when family and professional caregivers work together, joining efforts to create an all-around, integrated care team. That is why at Comfort Keepers we like to keep everything as transparent as possible.
Our team members utilize online portals to keep family members in the loop on their loved one’s progress and wellbeing. We regularly share notes, photos, and other updates with primary caregivers and other family members who wish to stay involved. You can see how your loved one’s care plan is being implemented, what their day is like, what our caregiver has been doing to help with everyday activities, and more.
Technology Can Foster Connection and Increase Engagement
Most of us cannot even imagine how difficult it was to stay informed and connected before modern technologies. We have grown so accustomed to relying on phones, emails, and social networks to keep us connected with each other and the world. Including these technologies into elderly care plans can certainly restore a sense of hopefulness and reduce loneliness in the seniors we care for.
Finding ways to foster connection with family and other loved ones is critical for maintaining your parent’s quality of life in many aspects. For example, a video call with the grandkids can mean as much as an in-person visit, especially when getting together is not possible. Family group chats, video calls, texts, and other means of communication can make your mom or dad feel appreciated and give them something to look forward to every day. And this can have a tremendous effect on their overall wellness.
At Comfort Keepers, our caregivers can help your loved one reduce social isolation through:
- Regularly scheduled phone and video calls
- Sharing family photos and videos
- Online games and other activities that promote mental sharpness
- Playing favorite songs or finding entertaining content on the internet
- And much more
