Walmart and Avanlee Care have announced a new initiative to help seniors aging in place be supported by loved ones in a decidedly convenient manner. The partnership will see Walmart adding its grocery delivery service into the Avanlee app where shoppers will be able to enjoy a convenient experience picking out their favorite items. The initiative is intended to help support the roughly 90% of Americans aged 65 and older who have a desire to age in place, according to Avanlee.
CEO and Founder of Avanlee Care Avanlee Christine commented on the Walmart and Avanlee Care partnership saying, "We are excited to be working with Walmart for grocery delivery through the Avanlee app, reducing the many tasks associated with caring for an aging parent. We're constantly thinking of ways to make the busy lives of caregivers easier. Integrating online grocery ordering and delivery from Walmart into Avanlee Care further helps our caregivers access everything they need to support an aging relative in one place."
