Join Brad Kreit: Technology, Aging, and In-Home Caregiving

Join IFTF Research Director Brad Kreit and a group of caregiving experts from San Francisco’s SteppingStone Adult Day Health and technology experts from Tech-enhanced Life at the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco on Tuesday, April 7!

The sheer number of baby boomers who will turn 65 in the next decade will result in a historic demand for caregivers, which might not be met by human resources alone. Meanwhile, innovations in the domain of the Internet of Things have led to an unprecedented number of devices connected to the Internet. Can technology play a more meaningful role in supporting caregivers and care recipients? How can we harness these innovations to create new home health strategies for individuals as they age?

At this panel, we'll explore how these disparate realms will collaborate in the next decade and create new approaches to caregiving.
