Technology
Aging Services of California held the nation's first legislative hearing on the use of technology in aging services. The joint hearing took place before two California legislative committees which included the Senate Subcommittee on Aging and Long-Term Care and the Assembly Committee on Aging and Long-Term Care. The hearing focused on promoting aging in place by discussing technologies that:
1) prevent unnecessary acute episodes and early detection of health issues,
2) better management of chronic diseases,
3) promote higher quality of care,
4) achieve greater staff and caseload efficiency, and
5) promote wellness and independence.
