Earlier this year, senior-targeted tablet maker 'grandPad' teamed up with Uber to help seniors get around easier. For many seniors, it can be difficult to arrange rides to do simple tasks such as visit the pharmacy or pick up groceries. This new service helps seniors maintain some of their independence by making it easier for them to get from one place to another.
As part of its recent partnership, grandPad tablets will be fully integrated with the Uber API. This means that seniors will easily be able to request an Uber driver to take them around town simply by using their tablet. The service not only provides a simple and reliable alternative to public transit, but it also makes it easier for seniors to access important healthcare services.
With a growing number of families looking to help elderly relatives retain some independence, this service provides a safe and affordable transportation solution.
