Here's how it works. A daughter in California can order a grandPad online for her mom in New York. When she orders, she preloads
photos, emails, and the folks that can be in the secure family network
who can contact mom. It's shipped directly to mom, ready to go.
How easy is this? No assembly required! It's already connected
to the internet and is ready to take a picture, send a voice mail, play
music and much more. Many users pick it up and start using it, no
training required.
The company created from Isaac and Scott's vision is tearing
down the wall of isolation that has been the curse of the elderly
for generations. With their brilliantly simple technology, older and
infirmed individuals are reconnecting with family and friends, finding a healthier, more independent life for themselves.

Their vision is tearing down the wall
of isolation that has been the curse
of the elderly for generations.

Despite its appearance, the resulting device is more than a tablet.
It's a complete bundled service which solves a multitude of issues for
those who are not blessed with the technology gene, and some who
are. It is a simple solution for video, phone and email communications, photos, entertainment and the management of life. It is a true
friend to the user, to the user's family and if needed, a caregiver.

You can buy grandPad direct from their website,
www.grandpad.net or call 1-800-704-9412. Families are finding it
to be an indispensable part of managed care for their elders. That's
where strategic partners like Comfort Keepers play a vital role,
providing reliable, expert in-home care in communities across the
country. Along with nutritional meal preparation and grooming or
light housekeeping and companionship, they will likely be providing
a grandPad to help the family stay connected and let their client get
the most joy out of life.
The grandPad team is one of creative problem solvers who listen
to their customers. The company website shows a corporate team
'headed' by senior advisors, literally, people who use the grandPad
every day. Says Isaac proudly, "grandPad will keep exploring and
innovating for Grandma Joan, Grandma Marlys and all elders and
their families."
