Summary

Elderly individuals suffer from profound loneliness and social isolation due to lack of family visits, community engagement, and companionship. This leads to accelerated mental and physical decline, yet there are no effective, scalable solutions to combat isolation or provide reliable companionship. The problem is exacerbated by geographic distance and limited mobility.
