Seniors are surfing the internet! Each year more aging seniors are tuning into the world wide web to explore all that it has to offer. To help our community with any technical questions about the internet or technology we offer Tech Time with Justin, a class with different tech subjects covered each week!

Caregivers play such a vital role in the lives of seniors, but it is important to remember you cannot pour from an empty cup! Here are some helpful tips to remember if you are someone's #caregiver: · Ask for support and accept help - It can be difficult to ask for help, but if your friends and family want to help, give them a task that will help lessen your load. · Get adequate sleep & rest - Proper relaxation is going to be crucial to be in optimal health to give care to others. · Stay hydrated and eat healthy - Similarly to getting good sleep, water and food will help give you the energy that you will need throughout your day. · Utilize The LOOP Village - Our virtual village is a space where your senior can socialize, learn new things, and be part of a community. LOOP is a resource that will ultimately leave your senior feeling better, easing your day-to-day.

A recent study done at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health found that chronic loneliness may increase the risk of severe health issues. “Especially when experienced chronically, our study suggests loneliness may play an important role in stroke incidence, which is already one of the leading causes of long-term disability and mortality worldwide.” Our goal at LOOP is to combat #seniorisolation and ultimately foster a happier and healthier senior population. https://lnkd.in/ev5jEiQS
