The Role of Technology in Addressing Isolation of Older Adults

Author(s):

Rosemary Kennedy, PhD

Seniors living independently have suffered isolation during the pandemic. What role can technology play in solving this?

"They're worried. They're scared. And most importantly, they're slowly losing touch with their respective social circles as they're trapped in their homes."

As we head into another COVID-19 winter, Rosemary Kennedy, PhD, shares her advice and expertise on how to help isolated elders.

Dr Kennedy is the Chief Health Informatics Officer at Connect America.
