When people think about older adults and technology, outdated stereotypes often come to mind—like resistance or difficulty understanding it. However, today’s reality is different. Many aging adults are not only using technology but actively seeking tools that make life easier, more connected, and engaging.
The use of technology among older adults continues to rise. According to a 2024 national AARP survey, 66 percent of respondents said technology enriches their lives by helping them manage daily tasks and create meaningful connections. From video chats with family to health tracking apps, seniors are becoming increasingly fluent in the digital language of convenience—and they expect their living environment to reflect that.
At Vitalia Solon, staying connected goes beyond offering Wi-Fi. It means delivering user-friendly, meaningful tools that enhance daily living. The Arrow App is a shining example. With just a few taps, residents can view daily menus, event calendars, wellness updates, and community news, as well as communicate directly with staff.
The app has significantly improved how we share program details, activities, and updates. It’s become the go-to tool for ensuring everyone stays informed and involved in real-time.
Residents especially value features like the program schedule and announcements. These tools help them stay organized and make it easier to plan their day around events, classes, or community updates. Whether it’s a new event, a schedule change, or an important notice, the Arrow App keeps vital information accessible and up-to-date.
Looking ahead, the Arrow App is positioning our community for long-term success. As future generations transition into senior living, they will bring even higher expectations for digital integration. By building these systems now, we’re creating an experience rooted in convenience, innovation, and forward-thinking solutions.
The Arrow App is more than a tool—it’s a commitment. A commitment to better communication, stronger engagement, and an improved living experience. With technology as a partner, the future of senior living is not just bright—it’s connected.
