LivingSafe is reinventing senior care services with the invention of LISA. LISA is an intelligent, non-intrusive monitoring system that facilitates the care of seniors in institutions or at home. LISA provides critical caregiving information to caregivers, greatly enhancing the safety of our seniors.
An important development for eldercare services
In this interview, David Landry, co-founder and CEO of LivingSafe, explains how a tragic experience with a family member inspired him to rethink the safety of our seniors, and revolutionize senior care services by founding LivingSafe.
At the beginning of my studies at ETS, when I was observing the technologies of care services available for the elderly, I was shocked to see that they were the same technologies for years
David Landry, Co-Founder & CEO @ LivingSafe
