It’s easy for someone to be labelled as “not good with technology”.
Perhaps they’ve refused a device before, something has been tried and abandoned, or there’s an assumption that technology simply won’t work for them.
But assistive technology doesn’t necessarily mean asking someone to learn how to use a complicated new device.
It could be a smart lightbulb that supports someone’s daily routine without them having to do anything differently. It could be an automated medication dispenser that provides medication at the right time. Or it could be a discreet sensor working quietly in the background.
The right solution depends entirely on the person.
That’s why Kyndi’s Care Technologists start with an assessment. We look at someone’s routines, abilities, environment, existing support and what they want to achieve before considering what might help.
Sometimes the answer will be technology. Sometimes it won’t.
But writing someone off as “not good with technology” risks overlooking solutions that could fit naturally into their life and make a genuine difference.
Perhaps the question isn’t “Will they use technology?”
It’s “What would work for them?”
