Personal Alarms – solving the problem of affordable independent living for an ageing population.

Posted by : Personal Alarms / Posted on : 21 January 2014
Independent Living Advice News

Welcome back to the 4th and final instalment of Bora Health’s review of the problems facing ageing Australians in maintaining independent living, and how assistive technology can provide a solution offering both peace of mind and affordability.

 

By way of a brief recap on what we have learned to date:

 

  • Australia is facing an ageing population both numerically and proportionally. This will result in greater dependence on the state and federal purse, as well as a reduction of the tax base with which to sustain it. The burden of financial support will shift from the state to the individual.
  • Ageing Australians are financially under prepared for the costs of retirement.
  • Given the very high cost of nursing care, Government focus will increasingly turn to supporting independent living.
  • Assistive technology is rapidly being viewed as a solution for independent living.
  • Personal alarms are one type of assistive technology aimed at improving an individual’s personal safety by increasing their ability to maintain independent living.

 

So who is Bora Health, what are they all about, and what is the solution to affordable independent living?

 

Who is Bora Health?

Bora Health is a community interest company committed to the belief that the ability to continue to live independently and age with dignity should be the right of everyone, not only for those that can afford it.
