Hello, On the night of my 21st birthday, my dad sat my twin sister and me down to share some wisdom. He was about to make a speech. "In life, you only get the choices you get, and you owe it to yourself to make the most of them." He was a quadriplegic and made an extraordinary impact with the choices he was empowered to make following his accident. (helloEd is named after him, see About Us). As you know, we're dedicated to helping you quickly find out what technology choices exist from across the world, to be closer to those you love, be well and manage health conditions, be independent, and get back to doing what you love. Though technology isn't the answer, in some cases it can make new levels of care possible - whether it's an age, health or assistive technology-related challenges, or living alone. Given the massive rise in advocacy for better care, the shift to telehealth during the pandemic, and the ongoing focus on at-home care and aging in place - our community has grown faster than we imagined, welcoming you, families, carers, health professionals, and technology providers. Finally, we're super inspired by the progress made as a global community celebrating the uniqueness and contribution of everyone, regardless of disability, age, health, or identity preferences. Whether it's Australian of the Year Dylan Alcock, or the heartwarming/ wrenching new movies raising awareness of Dementia. Here we include some of our latest articles and most viewed collections. If you have ideas, feedback, requests or would like to talk - we'd love to hear from you. We've got a lot to learn, and we're loving every minute of it. Stay safe, dream big, Kate & the helloEd Team |
