Some of the benefits of social care and using technology include:
- Depression is reduced by as much as 20% just by surfing online.
- As much as 25% improved working memory is experienced by older adults when they surf the internet.
- Through the measurement of breathing rate, pupil dilation, and brain stimulation, positive emotional experiences can be gauged in older adults. And it shows that by just visiting Facebook and other social networking sites, they are already experiencing a positive emotional experience.
- By becoming social, the elderly also experience a reduced risk for depression, lower blood pressure, reduced risk for Alzheimer’s, and reduced risk for osteoporosis, some cancers, and cardiovascular problems.
At the other end of the spectrum, elderly clients who are socially isolated have higher risks for high blood pressure, greater risk of death, and are lonely and depressed.

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.
