Social work with seniors: here are 10 starter apps for the iPad

Philip Moeller published on his blog „The Best Life“ a post on  the „10 Must-Have iPad Apps for Seniors“.  Interesting for social workers is the part where he writes about what social workers should keep in mind while working with the elderly. He quotes social worker Dan Cohen emphasising that „the key to success with the iPad is to identify apps of interest to seniors, not razzle-dazzling them with one’s favourite apps”.

Here are the 10 “starter” apps for older persons according to Moeller:

• ABC
• Netflix
• NPR
• iBooks
• Google Earth
• Zinio
• The Weather Channel
• Virtuoso
• Epicurious
• Pandora
