Realizing the Promise of Technologies for Enhancing Aging in Place Within Long-Term Care Homes.

While residential long-term care (LTC) settings can be the places to age well, they have received relatively little attention in research and policy conversations about technology. In this commentary, we discuss how technologies are currently being integrated into LTC, the ethical challenges and considerations this raises and the potential for improving how technologies are designed and implemented to empower and make the lives of older residents better. We advocate for innovative policy reforms and standards to ensure that technology design and development are equitable and inclusive and better aligned with the wishes and values of older adults and their families.
