Learn how this simple daily call check-in, with customizable call times and backup alerts, can eliminate the stress of juggling your own life demands while ensuring your elderly parent is safe. Gain insights into using technology to support aging in place, prevent isolation, and embrace your loved one's independence, all while safeguarding their health from afar. If you're a long-distance caregiver for elderly parents, this episode offers a practical solution.



Our Guest - Paul Hammond



Iamfine is the brainchild of Colin and Paul Hammond. Colin lives in the UK while his brother Paul lives on the west coast of America.  They designed Iamfine to help them both keep in touch with their mother Isobel who lives alone in Florida.



The brothers regularly speak to their mother and visit several times a year, but busy schedules mean they struggle to check on her every day. Although in her mid-90s, Isobel is healthy, plays golf twice a week, lives in her own home and loves life.  Like many elderly people living alone, she is fiercely independent and doesn’t want her sons to be worrying about her.
