At Ebony-VR, we’ve seen the power of VR as it helps aging patients dealing with the effects of Alzheimer’s and dementia. Research has shown it to be a positive experience that adds to the quality of their lives and helps them become more communicative.
It’s engaging and exciting, providing sensory stimulation and cognitive focus designed to improve mood and engage the mind. Through VR and similar technologies, we’ve helped bring this much-needed experience to seniors from all walks of life.
"Earl Leach, an entrepreneur in Atlanta, is using VR in nursing homes to help residents experience places new and old, aiding recall, and providing much-needed relief from the monotony of assisted living. “Our focus is providing VR experiences to the Aged Adult community. We bring the necessary equipment to the facility. We work closely with the facility staff and families to identify the appropriate experiences. Research has shown it to be a positive experience which adds to the quality of their lives."
