Why digital health products need to reflect how older adults actually live, move, and receive care at home. Healthcare is increasingly moving beyond the walls of clinics and hospitals. More care is happening in the home than ever before — through telehealth, remote monitoring, digital exercise platforms, and virtual care models. But designing technology for care at home requires a different lens. As a physical therapist who has spent over a decade working with older adults i

Challenging assumptions about aging, technology, and real-world care We’re Still Underestimating Older Adults With Technology In healthcare, we often say we’re building tools “for older adults.”But in practice, many of the assumptions shaping those tools don’t come from patients at all. They come from us. In clinical settings, especially in home-based care, I’ve seen a familiar hesitation surface again and again: “They probably won’t be able to use this.” “This might be too c

I came to consulting after years of working in home health and geriatrics, not because I was looking for a new title, but because I kept seeing the same problems go unresolved. After more than a decade in this space, a clear pattern emerged. Well-intentioned solutions often missed the mark, not because they lacked innovation, but because they weren’t built with the realities of care in mind. Home health is where healthcare theory meets real life. Care happens in cramped apart

The healthcare landscape is rapidly evolving, and home health technology is at the forefront of this transformation. As more patients prefer receiving care in the comfort of their homes, integrating technology into home health services has become essential. This blog post explores innovative strategies for effectively integrating technology into home health, enhancing patient care, and improving operational efficiency.
