Smart Technology to support safe and independent living

/in /by

At Social Care Alba we strive to provide more than just care. We work towards facilitating independence and support our clients to have a better quality of life.

We visited Edinburgh Smart Home to see how the use of smart technology solutions, can give the most vulnerable in our communities access to the tools they need to live independently in their own homes:

  • voice-assisted home controls
  • digital devices (mobile phones, tablets)
  • personal digital assistants
  • video conferencing
  • telecare and community alarms
  • home safety
Customised telephone with photos of contacts
Elements fold away easily when not used
Home entertainment centre controlled by voice and eye tracking

If you want to know more about Smart Home Technology, Social Care Alba is working in partnership with Edinburgh Smart Home, and we can contact a Digital Advisor by submitting a referral form to arrange an assessment of your needs and to identify technologies (such as smart speakers, GPS devices) that can help your carer/family better. Get in touch with us on 0131 285 1606.
