Connecting Loved Ones Across Continents: Marlene's Journey with the Konnekt Videophone

Marlene Robbins, a lady in her 80s, resides in BUPA Edithvale, an aged care facility in Melbourne, Australia.

With the challenges of age and dementia, Marlene found it difficult to stay connected with her family, especially her elder son Mark, who lives in Toronto, Canada.

Initially hesitant due to her technophobia, Marlene was introduced to the Konnekt Videophone during a demonstration at BUPA Aged Care.

Recognising the distance between Marlene and her children, her younger son Sean was intrigued by the Konnekt Videophone and decided to give it a try for his mum. Within just a few days, Marlene embraced the device, relishing the opportunity to see the faces of her children and grandchildren.

Sean shares:

"The simple navigation feature of Konnekt has made it easy and fun for Marlene to use the phone,"

The videophone has become a powerful tool for Marlene and her loved ones, enabling them to connect through video calls and ensure her happiness and well-being.
