Assisting Seniors in Need Through Innovation & TechnologoyAt Volunteers of America, we serve people in need at all stages of their lives, from the very young to the very old - and we utilize technology and other innovative techniques to assist the seniors we help.
At many of our health care facilities, we proudly offer It's Never 2 Late's (IN2L) customized computer systems with therapeutic and entertainment content and adapted hardware that empower individuals to connect, engage and enjoy life through the benefits of today's technology.
We also utilize WellAWARE, a low cost monitoring solution that gathers and reports behavioral and wellness information of a cared-for individual, in their home or at a senior living facility.
Another innovative program we offer is the Validation technique, developed by elder care innovator Naomi Feil. Validation is a method of communicating with very old people who, because of Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia, have become disoriented and withdrawn inside themselves.
