Blakehurst in the News: Seniors Learn About Apple Watches from Girl Scouts

As part of their journey to earn the prestigious Girl Scout Silver Award, local Girl Scouts have been sharing their technical know-how with residents in a series of intergenerational technology workshops. 2ABC came out for a recent session about how Apple Watches can help seniors stay connected, safe, and independent.
The interactive workshop covered:
-
- Staying Safe & Healthy: Using fall detection and medication reminders
- Adding a Personal Touch: Customizing watch faces to reflect their style
- Making Life Easier: Enlarging text size for better readability
- Peace of Mind: Setting up Emergency SOS features
- Daily Convenience: Creating reminders and using Siri voice commands
The workshops are part of Blakehurst’s HealthyLife® Services program, which fosters holistic wellness with engaging classes, clubs, events, and activities.
