This new guest blog, written by Zillah Moore from Tunstall Healthcare, discusses the potential for smart homes and mobilising new technologies in a connected world to support healthy ageing, independence and wellbeing.
In the blog the following themes are explored:
- The uses of technology in reducing social isolation for older people and to help connect clinicians with their patient’s behaviour
- Technology to enable a rapid response to home emergencies, through the use of a 24/7 alarm system
- The future of technological development, and how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected technology being taken up in the health and social care sectors
