Care technology allows seniors to age in place, gives peace of mind to families

JACKSON, Tenn. — 2 in 5 U.S. adults over 60 report feeling lonely.

As Baby Boomers transition into their golden years, the demand for senior care technology that connects parents and children is skyrocketing.

Now, more than ever, many seniors desire to continue living at home.

In fact, if given the choice, 77% of adults over 50 would prefer to age in place.

New care technology supports both adults, children and seniors by virtually connecting them with caregivers, family and friends.

The technology provides non-intrusive monitoring and connection to minimize feelings of isolation and loneliness.

“The biggest component of it is a smart camera device that is on a secure, safe environment that prevents the parent from being fished or scammed which they can be done through other traditional connection methods,” said Todd Houghton president and CEO of Homewatch CareGivers.

Families can have peace of mind knowing their loved ones are safe and receiving the care and attention they need.
