Notre Dame’s Nitesh Chawla has created eSeniorCare, a personalized, social app to help seniors age in place.
Several existing apps track data. eSeniorCare is meant to engage and stimulate seniors, and be interactive. Users can connect with carers by sending questions and concerns through text or voice recordings.
Health goals are tracked and sent to supporters who can provide guidance and motivation. Video, audio and text medication reminders can be sent. Stimulating brain games, designed to enhance cognition and prevent degeneration, can be played.
The goal is senior independence, combined with a support system with enough data to proactively reach out when needed.
