Join local expert Laura Gallagher Watkin as she shares CRIS Health Aging’s innovative use of technology to combat social isolation, enhance digital literacy, and improve physical safety for older adults and support their caregiver’s lives as well. Laura will introduce specific tools used in CRIS interventions, including Amazon Echos, animatronic pets, and motion detection sensors. This session will cover key topics such as the effectiveness of these tools, decision-making in their implementation, funding sources, research collaborations, ethical considerations, and client experiences. Earn CEUs while exploring how these technologies are shaping the future of social work with aging populations.
