Senior Citizens & Technology in Healthcare
As technology continues to evolve and shape the healthcare ecosystem, senior citizens will increasingly benefit from the advancements. New tools, such as telehealth and remote monitoring devices, make it easier for them and their caregivers to access the care seniors need. By leveraging virtual care options, they can avoid long wait times and remain in the comfort of their own homes when possible. As for healthcare organisations, with the right tools in place, they can ensure their senior patients receive the highest quality of care.
👉 Automation technology is used to streamline mundane tasks and processes, saving both time and money, while AI technologies are being used to increase accuracy and productivity in more complex areas, such as data analysis, customer service, and security.
👉 Companies like Apple, Google, and Microsoft are all investing heavily in AR technologies, so expect to see lots of new devices and applications in the near future, in all areas including for medical purposes.
👉 Wearable tech allows seniors to monitor their health, stay connected with family and friends, and access information quickly. Wearable tech also includes features such as GPS tracking, heart rate monitors, and voice-activated voice assistants.
👉 With the increasing popularity of voice technology, it is expected that more devices and gadgets will be able to respond to voice commands making it easier for seniors to control and manage their technology.
👉 5G networks could reduce latency to 1 ms or less, allowing for faster downloads and uploads and smoother streaming experiences.
The baby boomers are already on tech and with each passing day, they get more comfortable using it. And as the senior population continues to grow, it is time to leverage the variety of innovations to make their lives easier and more fulfilling.
