Using the indicators, we can target specific outcomes such as increasing the participation of residents in arts and cultural activities among the elderly, improving personal relations, volunteering, self-reported health and quality of life.
Description of Use Aside from providing companionship, it would be likely that the solution will move towards covering a wider range of volunteering efforts that will target the needs of aged persons as closely as possible.
Description of Use Information on technology adoption amongst the elderly is available, which will give us an idea of how feasible the solution is. Improving technology adoption from this group would also be a benefit. Information on aged people from culturally diverse backgrounds will help us to provide assistance to the subsection of elderly who are most likely to experience isolation and require help.
