Feel free to post, and please visit http://mhealthtalk.com Modern Health Talk (mHealthTalk.com) serves the Sandwich generation with information about Aging-in-Place and Home Healthcare and serves Industry with information about Healthcare Policy and Futures. My aim from posts shared here is to help lower healthcare costs and improve quality of life by promoting modern tech solutions for home healt
h care, aging-in-place, mHealth, telehealth, etc. As baby boomers retire and live longer, our nation faces a critical need to replace institutional care (hospitals, nursing homes & assisted living) with more affordable options such as aging-in-place at home. Innovative technologies can help make our multi-family or private homes safer and healthier places to live, but how does one find them and decide which is best? It helps fill a niche not covered by online support groups. At mHealthTalk.com, I write about low-tech solutions such as home modifications and universal design principles, as well as high-tech solutions such as wireless sensors, home health gateways, remote monitoring services, artificial intelligence, and healthcare robots. I also write about the politics of health reform and the future of healthcare. Modern Health Talk is an altruistic venture, founded by me, Wayne Caswell. As a retired IBM technologist, marketing strategist, and consumer advocate, I bring a unique perspective to the challenges and opportunities of modern healthcare. And I encourage respectful discussions of these issues. Feel free to comment, add your own posts, and share your perspective.
