For today's senior citizens, technology is always changing, especially with communications. The phone and snail mail are still functional, but vastly different. The internet is the foundation for growth of the "Information Age". Modification of computer hardware and software adds video web conferencing Upington to their communication options.

Now that healthcare is a major force in America, "Internet video conferencing is quickly becoming essential in promoting Senior independence at home", says Greg Hartwell, co-founder and CEO of Homecare California. This technology is common in business and social settings, but less so for Seniors. As a growing communications option, internet video conferencing promotes instant access, making evaluations and medical management convenient.

The American Association of Retired Persons defines four challenges to Senior well-being. These challenges consist of diminishing memory, diminishing mobility, diminishing skills, and increasing isolation. These video visits provide non-medical therapies for Senior well being hardships.

Homecare California (HCC)
Only 6 years old, HCC is a major provider of Senior home healthcare in Northern California. Hartwell attributes their success to fulfilling a growing need for a growing population. A common problem of home healthcare agencies is maintaining an effective patient and personnel balance. These video visits are the forerunner of medical advances, favoring Telehealth and other remote medical services.

Why Internet Video Conferencing?
These self-help systems work well for patients who live alone, have adequate memory, have some computer skills, and have family support. The implementation of internet video conferences by HCC is just the start of a growing acceptance of this technology by home healthcare agencies.
