Great photo shoot at AGE-WELL's SAM3 innovation hub. Watch for our story on the "apartment lab" at @bruyerecare and sensor systems being created to keep seniors healthy, safe & independent - in the kitchen and throughout the home. #aginginplace @Carleton_U @NCE_RCE

"For as long as we can foresee, there will be more older and fewer younger people among us every year. If we are to live well, we must care for one another, however old we are and whatever we may need."
theglobeandmail.com
Every generation is having fewer children than the one before it, leaving fewer and fewer people to care for us in our increasingly long lives. It is a crisis we ignore at our own peril

Some great innovations from @AGEWELL_NCE to help seniors age in place.
Imagine having an in-home virtual assistant that reminds older adults where they put their keys, or sensors that can detect a fall. In partnership with @AGEWELL_NCE we're developing these technologies to allow seniors to age in place. @AlexM_UT explains ➡️ https://t.co/kMoQzTVMGN

Age-friendly champion Ben Barker writes for us on his 'Bedminster Toilet Map' - and why public toilets are key to making places age-friendly. https://t.co/U7miLD8REv

Not having access to public toilets can stop people getting out and about in their area - so we made a tool to help.
