Provider of TV-based video calling devices for seniors expands offering with live activities for seniors, growing the AgeTech ecosystem through partnerships.

YORBA LINDA, CA, USA, June 25, 2024 -- ONSCREEN, Inc., a leader in TV-based senior care technology, is excited to announce the launch of ONSCREEN Live, a new offering that helps older adults participate in live online classes and events from the comfort of their TV. This innovative solution is made possible through new partnerships with The Loop Village (https://theloopvillage.com) and Discover Live (https://www.discover.live), bringing a diverse range of interactive activities directly to the living rooms of older adults.

“Live” by ONSCREEN offers a revolutionary way for older adults to overcome technical barriers and stay connected. For the first time, it is possible to access live and interactive classes and content directly from the TV. ONSCREEN’s integrated camera and microphone now makes it seamless to fully participate in these live activities for seniors, allowing a fully engaging and interactive experience for older adults that may traditionally struggle to get technology working. The platform offers an extensive range of interactive activities, including live, virtual travel, live music, meditation, and exercise, ensuring older adults stay engaged, active, and connected.

Many Activities for Seniors

ONSCREEN Live provides a vibrant schedule filled with multiple events every day. From morning meditation sessions and midday educational workshops to afternoon social hangouts and evening entertainment, there is always something engaging and exciting happening. This variety ensures that older adults remain active, connected, and engaged throughout the day.

A core set of classes provided via ONSCREEN Live are the interactive health and wellness sessions. From guided meditation and yoga classes to stretching exercises and fitness routines, these activities for seniors are designed to keep users active and improve their well-being. The easy-to-use interface allows participation in live, interactive sessions tailored to meet specific needs, helping older adults stay fit and mentally sharp.

Older adults can also enjoy interactive live music and entertainment directly on their TVs with ONSCREEN Live’s music and entertainment offerings. Performances from musicians such as classical guitarists and flamenco artists provide high-quality video and sound, ensuring that every event feels like a front-row experience.

In addition, ONSCREEN Live helps older adults stay socially connected with general hangout sessions. These virtual gatherings offer opportunities to meet new friends, participate in group discussions, and enjoy interactive activities. Whether it’s a book club, trivia night, or casual chat, ONSCREEN Live ensures users remain socially active and build meaningful connections. All of these sessions are available from The Loop Village.

“We are delighted to join forces with ONSCREEN. Our partnership allows us to extend our community-centric approach to a larger audience, those who are not able to use tablets or laptops, often being up to 50% of the 80-plus population, ensuring that older adults everywhere benefit from the engaging and supportive environment we strive to create, ” said Margot Merrick, CEO of The Loop Village.

ONSCREEN’s new offering also allows older adults to explore the world in real-time from their living rooms with Live Virtual Travel Experiences. Whether it’s a scenic tour of Paris, a walk through Lima, Peru, or a visit to the Banff National Park, users can enjoy immersive and interactive travel experiences without the hassle of leaving home. Led by expert tour guides, these unforgettable adventures provide cherished moments of connection, engagement, cognitive stimulation, and a bridge across generations. These virtual sessions are powered by Discover Live, the pioneer and leader in premium live virtual travel experiences and tours.

“Discover Live is excited to partner with ONSCREEN to bring the world to older adults’ living rooms. Our live virtual travel experiences are designed to inspire and engage, and support 5 out of the 6 dimensions of wellness. This partnership allows us to reach a broader audience and provide enriching experiences to those who may face mobility challenges. We are thrilled to offer these adventures through ONSCREEN’s TV-based senior care platform,” shared Jason Wei, CEO of Discover Live.

Effortless Participation in Activities for Seniors

When developing the new ONSCREEN Live feature, the ONSCREEN development team focused keenly on ease of use and removing technical barriers. Users can effortlessly register for events on their TV, using the simple ONSCREEN remote, from the list of upcoming activities. Caregivers can also register their loved ones in advance using the ONSCREEN web-based or mobile-based caregiver apps. Conveniently, Discover Live tours and Loop Village classes don’t require registration in advance, and users can simply join live classes at any time, adding variety to their day.

Events start automatically at the scheduled time, eliminating the need to navigate complex menus or remember start times. ONSCREEN is able to automatically turn the TV on and switch from regular TV programming to the live virtual event, removing any need for the older adult to deal with technology. When the event is over, ONSCREEN automatically switches the TV back to regular programming. This seamless integration makes it incredibly easy for older adults to join and enjoy various events, enhancing their daily routine with minimal effort.

The new ONSCREEN Live offering is an add-on to a user’s existing ONSCREEN subscription. Customers can choose to subscribe to either provider – The Loop Village or Discover Live, for a flat monthly fee of $49.99. This fee includes all of the monthly programming from each provider, and will be charged directly by ONSCREEN.

Regular social connections are vital for older adults' overall well-being, reducing loneliness and lowering levels of depression and anxiety. These interactions also stimulate cognitive function, promote better memory and thinking skills, and encourage a more active lifestyle. ONSCREEN Live offers these vital health benefits, ensuring that older adults stay engaged, active, and connected every day.

“We are thrilled to launch ONSCREEN Live in partnership with The Loop Village and Discover Live. They have been enriching lives by delivering amazing live content to older adults through traditional laptops and tablets. Now, using ONSCREEN, their content can reach populations that struggle with technology, on the biggest screen in their home. Additionally, ONSCREEN customers now benefit from increased engagement and companionship. It’s a perfect win-win partnership,” shared Costin Tuculescu, CEO and co-founder of ONSCREEN.

ONSCREEN delivers many solutions to reduce senior isolation and loneliness, and improve the health and happiness of our seniors. From Joy, our Senior AI Companion, to video calling solutions, ONSCREEN is here to support caregivers and families that struggle with technology. We hope you find our innovations helpful to your family!

Seamless family-connected care delivered through the familiar comfort of TV, empowering seniors to live well at home. New senior AI caregiver platform can bring peace of mind and improved outcomes.

YORBA LINDA, CA, USA, June 11, 2024 -- ONSCREEN, Inc., a leading provider of TV-based senior care technology, and Care Daily, a pioneer in AI-driven healthcare solutions in homes, are excited to announce the launch of new post-acute and longitudinal caregiving capabilities that directly engage seniors and empower their families. The combined power of ONSCREEN with the Care Daily Alliance equips seniors with the tools they need to thrive at home.

The integration of Care Daily and ONSCREEN offers several exciting new capabilities to accelerate the transition of healthcare into homes:

• Prioritize: Ensure the right support is delivered to seniors when it's needed most, streamlining remote care for clinicians and caregivers.
• Predict: Automated health assessments conducted by Joy, ONSCREEN's senior AI caregiver, help identify potential health issues early.
• Prevent: Timely alerts and reminders displayed directly on the TV empower seniors to take control of their health by keeping them informed.
• Participate: A daily prompt engages remote family members to connect with their loved ones through a convenient video chat on the TV, fostering social connection.

Care Daily’s AI platform is now connected with ONSCREEN's senior AI companion, Joy, which conducts regular interactive health assessments through the TV. Through natural voice conversations, patients can share details about their mental and physical well-being with Joy. This valuable information feeds into Care Daily's Wellness Score, a comprehensive metric that helps healthcare providers prioritize remote clinical and caregiver support. This allows for timely interventions, ensuring proactive care even between scheduled appointments.

For high-frailty and high-acuity patients who may struggle with traditional methods such as phone calls, text messaging, or apps, the TV becomes a natural third modality for communication (especially video calling). Notifications are now pushed directly from Care Daily into TVs via ONSCREEN. Seamlessly integrating with the Care Daily Alliance, a unified network of senior care technologies made interoperable by Care Daily, the total system goes beyond reminders. A missed medication or forgotten Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) reading triggers immediate alerts displayed directly on the TV (from the senior AI caregiver, Joy), ensuring critical activities are never missed. This promotes better health outcomes for patients and improved reimbursements for providers.

The partnership also enhances the Social Connector service by Care Daily, promoting daily family engagement by prompting a different family member each day to check in with their loved one via ONSCREEN. This ensures continuous and distributed social engagement while fostering more frequent face-to-face interactions, transforming the TV into a convenient video calling device for seniors. Call duration metrics are captured by Care Daily to improve the accuracy of the Social Score and related social trends.

"ONSCREEN's curation into the Care Daily Alliance redefines patient engagement in both post-acute and longitudinal care settings," said David Moss, CEO of Care Daily. "Patients can now recover at home with accessible reminders and multi-generational family engagement. Clinicians are empowered to prioritize care, ensuring the right interventions reach the right patients at the right time. This is the future of care: delivered where we all feel most comfortable – our homes."

"Combining Care Daily’s broad AI capabilities that collect data from devices in the Care Daily Alliance, with ONSCREEN’s TV-based senior care platform (including Joy, the senior AI caregiver) creates a powerful tool for enhancing senior care," said Costin Tuculescu, CEO of ONSCREEN, Inc. "These new capabilities not only improve the quality of care but also ensure that seniors remain connected, engaged, and well-supported in their homes."
