Seniors and Social Media in 2030: Stay Alerted

It has come to the point, where you can not always look at the television screen for news, especially if time spent is usually outside. With that being said, cellular devices have news apps as well as option for “alert” to grab people’s attention. This is very good for seniors because when it comes to situations such as an amber alert, nuclear warning etc. the cellular device being used get the alert as soon as possible.

“Silver” is recommended for seniors if they go missing according to the Cochise County Police. These alert systems immediately notify every cellular device as it gives information on the specific person missing and suspect. With this as good use for your cellphone, it’s good use and helps seniors stay connected to help contribute.

  1. Thank-you for sharing this with us Hasan. It is so important that there are systems in place to protect our seniors. This can be done through social media in the future. By 2030, there should be social media platforms set up like a silver alert system that will help society care for it’s seniors.

  2. Great post Hasan. Seniors are always in danger of getting lost, so if we manage to have a stable alert system that tracks the citizen in case they got lost that would improve society.
