What is the Impact of Social Media on Seniors?

Social media can be a powerful tool for connecting seniors and families. It also creates the ability for loved ones to stay connected over long distances, preventing loneliness as well as isolation. However, with these great benefits comes the possibility of being taken advantage of online. Seniors can be especially susceptible to online fraud and scams. In this video, we’ll discuss some tips and tricks to keep your elder or loved ones safe online.
Some of the most common dangers for seniors on social media are financial scams from bad actors pretending to be friends or family. Another popular form of manipulation on social media is misinformation and propaganda. These threats can be mitigated by having a tech-savvy family member or Caregiver assist with privacy settings, additional authentication for financial transactions, and more. If you or a loved one could use more assistance with aging in place while staying connected to family members and friends reach out to Visiting Angels today. #visitingangels #socialmedia

How do you bring these concerns up to seniors? They don’t see how social media is addicting and causing harm, and also don’t listen to their children because the senior will always be the “parent” even to their adult children and does not heed the advice from their adult children.
