Grit Daily covers the importance of technology and digital health sharing Lifesprk’s ELR as one example. In the article, the reporters shares how “senior citizens are valuable part of society and important to the lives of many people. However, the care they are receiving does not reflect such a statement. In a world where technology has taken over many aspects of life, nursing homes are sadly not in a position to offer the same digital access and devices that are available to most of the world.Â
The technology of the future is just as important for the success of nursing homes. As nursing homes see an influx of people in the coming years, technology must be developed to keep pace with higher elderly populations. Technology such as Lifesprk: Electronic Life Record, is aimed at analyzing medical profiles for each patient and creating predictive models. These models also take into account social and economic factors to comprise a full picture of the individual’s lifestyle.
