Helping Seniors Connected with Their Loved Ones

Helping Seniors Connected with Their Loved Ones

Nowadays, with social distancing and quarantine protocols keeping loved ones apart, many personal care assistants in Connecticut have taken on a new role: tech support for seniors who are now connecting with their families online.

In line with this, Covenant Care of Connecticut, LLC has put together a list of suggestions sitters can use to help their seniors.

  • The Right Technology
    Help seniors choose the right devices that can meet and complete their needs efficiently. Senior-friendly hardware and software can help your senior avoid confusion and frustration.
  • Sign Up for Classes
    Once everything is set up, sign them up for a computer class. There are some that are especially designed to cater to older users.
  • Encourage Hobbies and Curiosities
    The online world is full of fantastic and interesting content — help seniors find something they like. This can be a good antidote to isolation.
  • Provide Tech Support
    Certified Nursing Aides should answer seniors kindly and compassionately when they ask about something regarding technology. This will help encourage them to learn more about their gadgets.
  • Check and Install Proper Security Software
    Seniors are most vulnerable to online scams and viruses. Make sure they have the right security software installed in their devices.
