Birdsong Engagement Tablet
George & Sue Birdsong funded an academic study
to investigate the impact of 24/7 digital bedside
engagement technology (simple touchscreen
computing) on the quality of life and cognitive
abilities of older adults in Assisted Living and
Nursing Center care at Westminster-Canterbury.
We measured and found high hours of voluntary
usage/enjoyment, elevation in mood, increases in
cognitive ability, and a reduction in caregiver stress.
24/7 bedside computing works!
Unfortunately, we found the software we had been
using for The Birdsong Initiative was simply too
expensive for most families and providers for
individual bedside use.
Out of a moral obligation to find a way to bring the
benefits we found in the study to the field, we
partnered with a French company TMM Solutions
to create our own in-room engagement tool called
“The Birdsong Tablet: Engagement That
Entertains”. This technology will be less than your
discounted in-house cable TV service to operate.
TMM Solutions had vast experience in hospital
info/tainment bedside flatscreen technology. Our
partners are equally passionate about spreading
affordable and accessible bedside engagement
technology to every older adult who can benefit.
