 Testimonials from customers and partners

The satisfaction surveys carried out among the equipped beneficiaries and the figures collected in the framework of this study made it possible to identify the various advantages of the solutions connected to help elderly people: to react quickly in the event of a fall, to postpone moving into a nursing home, to prevent the deterioration of the beneficiary’s state of health and, most importantly, to save lives.

Partners of the company participated in this survey to testify about their experience with Telegrafik and explain the contribution of connected solutions to their business. “Mentalities are changing, the young old people of today will be the old people of tomorrow, and they are people used to all the new technologies and therefore more demanding of this type of solution.”, explains Sandrine Taffary, nurse coordinator at the Saint-Louis nursing home.
