SUPPORT FOR SENIOR CITIZENS
MYSENCARE App developed by Toronto Malayalee Samajam (TMS) in partnership with the Ministry for Seniors and Accessibility of Ontario, aims to provide knowledge-based support for the South Asian (specifically Tamil and Malayalee) senior citizens of our community.
The pandemic accelerated social isolation, lessened peer interactions, and created uncertainties in a worrisome environment for our seniors and with that came a newfound focus on health, safety and wellbeing of our older adults. Through this app, we aim to improve social outcomes for older adults by using a holistic approach focusing on social, physical, and mental health aspects.
- In addition, the MYSENCARE App provides a social media pathway for our seniors to reach out and touch the necessary programs provided by various Ontario ministries and other community organizations. Seniors can now get up-to-date and relevant information on topics of interest, right at their fingertips.
- The free, user-friendly, app that runs on multiple platforms including Android and iOS, is the gateway to many senior-related information sites. When developing the app, Seniors’ privacy and online safety have been top of mind. While the App may collect simple data (with proper consent) to monitor performance indicators, it has built-in features to ensure data privacy isn’t compromised at any cost.
