Why Games and Social Engagement Are As Important As Physical Health
Games are not only fun and entertaining but help build and strengthen relationships and bring families together while minimizing the effects of social isolation.
Leading Gerontologist on the effects of social isolation
“The effects of social isolation cannot be overestimated” says a leading gerontologist of the research they’ve conducted. In older adults struggling with social isolation, research shows “a significant increase in cardio-vascular disease, stroke, and perhaps most interesting, a 64% increase in dementia.” With GrandPad’s video chat and games there’s a real and unique opportunity to improve the lives of millions of older adults.
“As Humans, we need to eat, to sleep, to exercise and to connect in meaningful ways. We haven't talked so much in years.”

Games can deliver a variety of benefits for older adults, like strengthening attention, motor skills, decision-making, memory, and mental health.
