Adopting a digital social life may not come easy to older adults who have difficulties grasping new technology. Our Visiting Angels of Gilford caregivers will sit beside your loved ones and show them how to use their device, whether it be a cell phone, tablet, or personal computer. They can assist with connecting to the internet, identifying icons, and recording passwords. Basically, our at-home care providers will show your loved one which keys to push and where to click.

Technology Provides Numerous Benefits for Seniors

Digital tools can provide cognitive and emotional benefits, according to recent studies: 

  • A University of Arizona study reveals that seniors using Facebook show a 25 percent increase in “mental updating” skills, essentially improving their working memory.
  • Seniors who visit social networking sites like Facebook have a positive emotional experience when measuring breathing rates, brain stimulation, and pupil dilation.
  • Surfing the internet can reduce depression in seniors.

  • Use a cell phone

“Because of this program, I was able to experience two of the greatest joys in life – becoming a grandmother and seeing my son become a new father. Skyping and Facebooking with my son and his family are now a normal part of my life. It helps me feel like I’m still an important part of their lives even though I’m miles and miles away.”
