Community Based Organizations

Partnering with Community Based Organizations (CBOs) to Create Virtual Communities using the TeleVisit Platform. Your CBO may provide food (eg. Meals on Wheels), senior day care, senior housing, medical or social activities (senior center, PACE provider), etc.

Depending on your organization’s needs and requirements, members of these communities can socially engage /participate by:
1.   Joining TeleVisit’s Existing Programs in a special group that is created specifically for your organization.
2.   Joining a Customized Program that is co-branded with your organization

Studies have shown that an active physical and social life is an important factor in healthy aging and reducing the risk of cognitive decline and dementia.  Physical limitations and constraints in the aging process may result in a decline in active participation for seniors.

TeleVisit’s programs aim to create virtual communities that enable homebound seniors to continue to remain socially active.  Older adults can continue to be socially active, participating/engaging in daily social interactions and activities from discussions on topics of interest to exercise and stretching sessions, and attending educational “seminars” from the comfort of home.   

Participants in TeleVisit’s pilot program study reported that active participation and being part of the virtual group and programs offered had given them access to social activities, opportunities to make new friends, and a general improvement in a sense of well-being.
