Description:
Weβre back with a new season of the StartUp Health NOW podcast!
This week weβre chatting with Richard Hirsch from UnaliWear. UnaliWear, under the guidance of CEO & Founder Jean Anne Booth, is a long-time StartUp Health community member that is changing the game in medical alerts for seniors.
UnaliWear built the voice-first Kanega watch that provides discreet support for falls, medication reminders, and a guard against wandering β and allows seniors to call for help if they need it. It gives seniors independence without making them wear a stigmatizing alert button around their necks.
