The Challenge

Lonely seniors

48% of seniors in the US are lonely, and it affects their health.

With the loss of friends and relatives that comes with aging, and our highly mobile society, more and more seniors report feeling lonely. Researches show that loneliness is associated with cognitive decline, depression and even reduced motor function.

Overloaded family caregivers

Family caregivers must juggle conflicting demands

73% of family caregivers are also employed
66% report that their work day is interrupted by caregiving issues
15% live more than an hour away from their charge

Just zep in for a visit

Family caregivers can visit at the touch of a button, from any location.
