Aging & Disability Technology Summit Recap


.
---Here is something that you may find interesting. Though the summit has already happened you can see that there is a movement going on that is trying to de-stigmatize the computer for older folks and for those who are not yet seeing the computer as a ''friendly'' piece of equipment.

---I, myself, demonstrated my blogs. We are trying to show folks that the most limiting factor that is encountered is one's self-limiter. The sky is your limit...if you can think so freely. I am 61 years old and am dealing with a stroke, have no fingers on my left-hand (birth defect) and double vision. The computer allows me to be connected in a way that is better than I ever thought possible. If you exert a little effort, the return will probably amaze you...and be benefical to you beyond belief.

LH COMPUTER CLUB


---It is a computer club formed for the residents of Laguna Honda Hospital. It is a way for residents to learn about or obtain affordable, refurbished laptop computers and begin the life broadening fun that others have had with computers. This club is formed with the resident/patient in mind. We realize that some folks may have certain challenges, but we feel that learning a few easy things on the computer can do wonders for the outlook of those able to put out a minimum of effort. A computer allows folks to be able to enjoy a treasure trove of entertainment pleasure. It can be your window to the world.
