- More Ways Tech Can Help Keep Seniors Safe Kim Hegwood 21:04
“When we think of safety. We think about avoiding wandering. And I think we’ll get into that. But we think of medications, we think of falls, etc. But one of the big ones is financial safety. Because if that’s not in place, you can have all the safety features in the house, but you’re going to lose your house. Right? You’re going to lose your house. You’re not going to have anybody to be able to take care of you. You’re really going to be in a tough situation”. Benjamin Surmi
