Technology for Today’s Seniors, People with Disabilities, and chronic disease patients
Most aging people- maybe you, your parents and grandparents are concerned about wellbeing and safety when living alone at home. Many seniors are forced to leave their homes and move-in assisted living facilities, as their loved ones fear that there will be no one aid them with their day-to-day routines.
HELPSoS’s goal is to address today’s seniors and tomorrow’s baby boomers by offering our solution over multiple communication devices- traditional phones, smartphones, mobile apps and the web. While there are many eHealth companies targeting the aging baby boomer market with mobile Apps, only few focus on technology solutions that address today’s seniors.. Prevalence of traditional landline and mobile phones among seniors and disabled population makes HELPSoS’ Tele-wellness service widely accessible to virtually everybody.
