Here’s What We Do To Help
Older adults love the simple and more natural way that voice based technologies work. As a matter of fact, folks over age 65 are one of the largest and fastest growing groups choosing smart speaker devices as their preferred way to easily find information, set reminders and alarms, keep entertained with audible books or music, stay on top of news, weather and events, and stay in touch with those they love. And over 50% of them use their smart speakers at least daily!
Leveraging the intuitive simplicity and low cost of smart speakers, health and aging experts have developed a well-being program, called WELLSAID, specifically designed to support the well-being of older adults and helping them stay active, healthy and independent.
WELLSAID participants use their smart device to interact with their own personal virtual well-being coach, Coach Cara, each day. Using a simple question and answer check-in format, WELLSAID flags areas of potential concern that might need additional attention.
And when WELLSAID users pair with loved ones, their family and friends can stay informed with message alerts and regular well-being risk assessment reports, through WellSaid’s Caring Companion App.
Given the powerful and effective way WELLSAID engages older adults and their care support network, it’s no surprise that insurance carriers are offering Better Every Day, an even more comprehensive program, to qualified members in their network.
