The primary result of todays expanding technology is the thwarting of isolation. Access to technology allows seniors to maintain those cherished family connections. Seniors residing in an assisted living facility with access to skype can communicate face to face across long distances to friends. This occurs on the computer screen in real time. Family have the ability to assess the seniors status through observation and conversation. A picture is worth a thousand words. And often provides an accurate sense of how things are going.
Hand held technology can be used for texting and emailing family at a convenient time. In a minute an important message can be sent to several friends. The emotional lift one can feel from a received communication lends a sense of how important our day to day connections really are.
A kindle is an electonic pad that allows the senior to receive the latest books. The senior can have access to the newest written material without having to run to the bookstore or library. The senior is able to read the book page by page right fron the electronic pad.
