    Technology Use of Older Adults to Promote Aging in Place at Franciscan PACE Center
    (2021-04-27) Gregory, Lauren; Zeigler, Jayson; Department of Occupational Therapy, School of Health and Human Sciences; Barnes, Carol
    Technology use among older adults has been shown to be beneficial for their overall health, independence, socialization, and quality of life. Technology promotes aging in place for these individuals, especially during the coronavirus pandemic where social isolation is more prevalent. The capstone project with the Franciscan PACE center focuses on providing evidence-based resources for participants to increase occupational performance through the use of technology. Healthcare providers at PACE were provided with the same resources to better educate them on the technologies available and their features that promote aging in place for older adult participants. The technology resources, including an excel sheet and educational videos, were reported by staff and participants to be beneficial and likely to be referenced in the future. Through education, older adults and numerous healthcare workers were made aware of how useful technologies can be to improve functionality and everyday life performance.
