Digital assistant network in the South Moravian Region

Digitalization is an inevitable trend that affects us all. It can help seniors stay in touch with loved ones, navigate the world more easily, and live a better quality of life. The elderly are one of the groups who may be concerned not only with the use of modern technology but also with their learning. The low digital skills of older people can lead to or contribute to their social isolation, feelings of loneliness, or fear of using smart devices. We want to support seniors in learning new skills and show that it is still possible to learn how to use modern technology and be socially active.

Seniors will be able to control their smart devices and will no longer feel confused in the digital world. With more personalized care and the support of a digital assistant, seniors will feel more confident and increase their courage to work with modern technology. Additionally, digital assistants will receive a certificate that they can use as a reference for school or employment. By working with seniors, they deepen their knowledge of their needs in the field of modern technology, enhance their communication skills, and develop emotional intelligence or respect for old age. Thus, there is an intergenerational connection, learning, and mutual assistance.
