In this episode of This is Getting Old, Dr. Melissa sits down with David Burke, the founder of NxtGen Care, to discuss how social engagement and movement are vital for healthy aging. David highlights how staying connected with others and maintaining regular physical activity are key factors in promoting cognitive health, emotional well-being, and overall longevity. He shares a touching story of a retired World War II pilot who, despite no longer being able to fly, built a flight simulator to stay socially engaged with others and keep his passion alive.
David also discusses his work at NxtGen Care, where the company’s innovative software platform helps monitor and enhance the social engagement and well-being of residents in assisted living communities. This technology enables caregivers and families to track the quality of social interactions, ensuring that elderly individuals receive the emotional support they need. Through this platform, NxtGen Care is improving the standard of elder care, helping families stay connected with their loved ones, and reducing the risk of loneliness and isolation in senior care settings.
