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
Give peace of mind for you and your loved ones as you drop by for large-as-life visits throughout the day.
