Organization Description

We aim to reduce impact of cognitive decline among the elderly by leveraging technology. As a vulnerable population, they often face social isolation and struggle to keep pace with rapidly evolving digital world—making it difficult to carry out basic transactions or stay in touch with friends and loved ones. To bridge this gap, our digitally-native staff work with senior homes residents, providing support and education to help them adopt and use technology. We empower them to stay connected and maintain a sense of relevance and engagement in their lives.

Health & Safety

Students will be working on a one-on-one basis with elderly residents at senior home. These are independent and assisted living facilities. NOT in memory care facilities.

Initially students will shadow trainer. Post training period, students can be more independent and report to facility manager while on-site.
