The benefits of assistive technology for seniors
What is assistive technology? It is any service or tool that helps the elderly or disabled do the activities they have always done but must now do differently. It may be something as simple as a walker or an amplification device to make sounds easier to hear. It could be a magnifying glass that helps someone read the newspaper or a motor scooter that makes it possible to travel distances too far to walk.

Are you or one of your family members the one? What can you do about it? Where can you go for some expert help?

Caring for parents can be daunting, rewarding
Our parents are often the most influential people in our lives. They have helped us learn to walk and talk, helped us through those awkward teen years and listened to all of our problems.
