As we continue to navigate this difficult time, the protection and care of the
integratedliving family - clients, volunteers and staff, continues to be our top priority.
You can keep up with the grandkids or the younger ones in your family thanks to our Digital Wellness program. Age is not a barrier to learning new skills when it comes to this technologically-supported program.
Staying connected to family and friends is an integral part of staying well and feeling happy and our Digital Wellness program can help you do that through the use of technology. We also understand that getting out and about and socialising can become a challenge as we age.
The Digital Wellness program will also show you how to be active in your community and follow your interests and hobbies through using online technology. You will improve your quality of life and have fun accessing music, books, puzzles and photos through the Digital Wellness program.
As a Digital Wellness program participant you will discover new ways to interact with friends and family and find outlets to make some new friends. You will gain a sense of achievement by learning new skills such as taking and storing photos and our staff will help with any challenges you face when using online technology.

When you join the Digital Wellness program, you will receive an iPad to use throughout the duration. The program is delivered once a week in a face-to-face group session spread across 16 weeks. It will take you through the steps to get you feeling confident in using digital technology to support your wellbeing.
The group sessions provide a great opportunity to share stories and tips on how to make the best use of the iPad. You will be supported by staff to achieve your individual Digital Wellness goals and learn new skills with like-minded people.
The Digital Wellness program is available in a variety of regions across New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania, Queensland, the Northern Territory and the ACT. Phone our Customer Service Team to see if this program is available in your area.
The Digital Wellness program has been incorporated into other Wellness for Independence programs including Memory Wellness.
