2012 Aging & Disability Technology Summit
Weren't able to meet us at this year's Technology Summit at San Francisco's City Hall? The workshops and events were held all day, May 15th, but if you missed our workshop for caregivers or didn't get one of our technology handouts with suggested caregiver apps, you can download both the Powerpoint presentation and the app chart below.
FCA hosted a resource table throughout the day while the workshop from 1-2pm focused on our favorite digital tools and demonstrated more for attendees to critique. If you missed it, download the PDF above and learn how to access cool new ways to take care of your health while caring for your loved one.
The summit was hosted by Community Living Campaign (visit the www.SFhealthyaging.org website for more information).
