grandPad Partners With A First Name Basis To Help Seniors Via Connectivity & Safety
ORANGE, Calif. (PRWEB) December 02, 2015 -- grandPad, creator of the first digital tablet and network to privately connect the core family with a platform built for seniors, has entered into a partnership with A First Name Basis, a leading home care agency in Louisiana. In the partnership, seniors in the A First Name Basis family of living homes will be able to use grandPad’s groundbreaking device.
grandPad is the first digital tablet and network to privately connect the core family with a platform built for seniors. Empowering seniors to connect easily and effortlessly, the tablet device pairs with a smartphone or desktop app that every family member can download (the device is sold as a subscription service, starting at $60 per month). With grandPad, seniors can video chat with the family, check emails from the family in real-time, share photos, play games, make phone calls, and much more. There are no confusing buttons, passwords, tech set-ups, or pop-up ads. The intuitive, easy-to-use design turns technology into a gateway instead of a barrier.
With grandPad, A First Name Basis is able to support its seniors who are “aging in place” at one of their living homes. Additionally, the device strengthens the A First Name Basis community by letting seniors, family members, caregivers, and living center personnel become more connected to each other.
“Our partnership with A First Name Basis demonstrates the power of the grandPad device,” notes Scott Lien, CEO of grandPad. “With our tablet, seniors can get more connected to loved ones and lead more involved, happier lives.”
Jake Fackrell, CEO of A First Name Basis, says, “grandPad lets our seniors experience the connection and communication they desire and need. It’s wonderful to be able to help our clients with their personal care as well as their emotional well being. Seeing the incredible difference this device is making in the life of our clients is humbling.”
