How top technology is giving peace of mind to elderly people and their families
TOP technology is being used to keep elderly people in touch with loved ones.
Home Instead, which provides specialised home care, believes the software and gadgets are enhancing the lives of elderly clients.
The most recent addition to their tech offering is ‘Ethel’, a device that looks like a small TV.
It offers health and happiness support with daily check-ins and medicine reminders, but also easy video calls and text messages to keep in touch with friends, family and the Home Instead team.
Entertainment, news, videos, music and games are also available at the touch of a button.
