As more older adults choose to remain in their own homes, technology is becoming an important tool for maintaining independence, safety, and quality of life. This presentation will explore how different technologies like smart homes, mobile technology, and other health-support tools can help people age in place with greater confidence. Attendees will learn about key technology categories and the benefits they provide for older adults, caregivers, and families.
Our presenter will address us and respond to questions remotely via Google Meetings.
